Loose socket outlet in plasterboard

by russellfl » Wed Oct 26, 2011 4:37 pm

Hi,
I have a double plastic backbox in a plastered stud wall, but the plasterboard has has broken around the back box and the box comes out of the wall. Any ideas how I can mend it short of cutting a new hole?
Cheers

spray expanding foam in the gap behind the box, once set it shouldnt move.
