I have tried to think of everything since they did not put a two-by-four or piece of wood where the toilet paper holder or towel rack could be installed so that the racks and holder have something solid to screw into. With small kids these racks and holders end up pulling the racks off and creating bigger holes in the gyproc.<br \/>&nbsp;Can you please give me any advice?<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/><strong>A:<\/strong> You can always tell a best contractor or framing carpenter, by the number of backing materials prepared in the walls to accept wall racks, toilet paper holder and grab bars. My suggestion for you is to open the walls up and screw your backing into place. Replace the drywall using patching tape, fill, then sand and paint. Now you can proceed to install all your hardware
