diy'ers please check in (need help with a towel rack)

[stev0]

sounds funny har har

obviously someone hung on a towel bar that is in my bathroom last night during another one of the parties that have been happening at my place.

it's a square tube bar with those end caps on it, it mounts to the wall with wall anchors (the plastic kind that you drill a hole, tap them in then put screws into the plastice peices.

the plastice anchors have pulled loose from the wall, how can i fix it without doing major renovation and make it look back to the way it was (most important)

Sorry, I only help helpless single women.

j/k: Patch the holes and install anchors 1" above or below the old holes. The mounting fixtures should cover the holes.

Or get a bigger anchor, and install the smaller ones inside the bigger ones. It really works!

Or use molly bolts if the holes aren't too big.
