I recently completely gutted and renovated my full bath and made a huge mistake and wanted to see if anyone had any ideas before I start tearing things back apart. Durring the rough in I placed a horizontal 2x6 between the studs and mounted my valve to the 2x6. Well apparently the 2x6 was such a great fit that I somehow forgot to screw it to the studs…I have a fiberglass surround and the bathroom is now completely finished. Earlier today I went to install the trim on the valve when I realized the mounting block is not secured to the studs. Does anyone have any other methods of securing the valve. I was thinking I could possibly get an angle drill and a long extension to possibly get some screws in it but it’s going to be a tight fit, anything is worth a shot before cutting back drywall and removing that section of the surround.
Also the shower backs my kitchen wall so cutting a access hole from the other room will not work.
Thanks you
