I've had to do a lot of repairs like this but have never seen a hack like this! With the reinforcement inside the wall, that will be a sturdy rack! Very impressive.

Using a wood base and just screwing it to the wall is way easier believe me I do this all the time , same principle but my way is faster

Brilliant! I knew if I searched long enough I would find someone who has had the same problem. I like the idea of using the aluminum strip for reinforcement.

Just for your future work in same situation behind the sheetrok - instead of regular wood, better to use 1/2"-3/4" thick and 3/4'-1" wide strip of plywood. It will be much stronger and free of splitting by using wood screws.

The best way to repair this without repositioning the towel bar because of equal spacing is to cut out the broken out drywall and place a wood backing strip where the towel bar base was originally mounted , then screw the backing to the drywall then place the new drywall to the backing , then after the patch is sanded and textured painted re attach your towel bar to its original position with wood screws hitting the wood strip backing behind the drywall, this is super easy and the towel bar will be secure!

Wood can be splitting by the screw. At list you can use plywood 1/2" thick × 3/4" wide and predrill holes for screws.

If you have plan to install/reinstall to the not damaged spot of wall sheetrok, then use a Toggle Bolt. www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-8-in-x-3-in-Zinc-Plated-Steel-Mushroom-Head-Phillips-Toggle-Bolts-with-Screws-25-Pack-803902/204274390

Will this work for bathroom shelf. On one side, the wall plug failed and left same size hole you had when I pulled out the plug. I really do want to re-use the holes so I can put a new shelf in the same spot. Do you think this is strong enough to do that?
@FixitAll2 жыл бұрын
Personally I never install shelf on sheetrok. Into wood/metal studs only. Shelf and staff on it heavy, I think sheetrok can't hold the weight.
