Hi,
I am going to try one of the suggestions here about putting up a sheet of wood over the sheetrock and then installing our towel rods into the wood.
So I am going to need a stud finder to locate the studs and some thin nails to test and make sure I find the studs correctly. I've never used a stud finder so any tips would be appreciated.
Once I locate the studs I can attach my strips of wood using screws or I guess I could nail them in. Screws seems like a good way to go. Once the strips of wood are up I will attach the towel rods.
Seems simple enough but then again I've never used a stud finder.
I decided on using the sheet of wood because the wall paper in this room is fairly new but it is ripped now where the rods pulled off the wall. The wood will cover up the tears and hopefully they won't pull out of the wall once I get them mounted using this method.
I'd appreciate any tips before I get started on this one.
Thanks, Steve
