In the porch, the light fitting has torn loose. The person who fitted it had put screws directly into plasterboard with no rawlplugs. The plasterboard is too messed up to make new holes and there is no joist to s***w in to. The ring main pokes through and pushes down on the fitting.Is my best option to choose a fitting with wide apart screws and hope that the plasterboard will hold further from the hole? I am concerned that I would need to keep the chocolate block which the two wires that go into the fitting come from since parts of the ring main are connected in there.I have qualifications in electronics but they didn't cover household electrics, sadly.Advice welcomed.Mark
