I’m cleaning this cabinet above the range/micro and noticed this mark on the back. I mostly keep cooking oils, vinegars, etc in here. Does this look serious?
Update: well it ain’t pretty, but it shouldn’t burn the house down. For anyone concerned, my electrician approves. Thank you all for your help today.
Great! I’d also explore properly attaching the blue box to the drywall, then using a box extender to cover the space taken up by the melamine. This way the outlet and cover can be securely attached.
Thanks for the tips. That’s just what I’ll do. Do you think it’s important to mount it to the stud or will an old work box do?
