  • need to rehang a curtain rail at partners place that pulled out again, georgian build and the bricks seem to be either very hard or very soft, used wet-n-fix patches previously but new curtains are heavier and the shitty brackets act like a lever pulling out the top fixing leveraging against the bottom, its pulled out an area about 7cm across.

    suggested filling and re-drilling to the side but thats been vetoed by the owner :-/
    flat is going through the sale process and need to do this at the weekend before survey.
    what product do i need to fill and re-drill? hopefully something i can order from amazon/screwfix so its there for me to use on saturday and not a 10kg bag.
    is there a type of resin you can put a rawlplug in with screw as it sets then remove for fixing?

  • Tough job to get done properly in a day. I might try pva on hand made wooden plugs hammered into the existing holes. Sometimes wooden plugs work better in brick walls.
