Countersunk screw going into plasterboard. I have bought a floating desk that I would like to attach to a plasterboard wall. It came with 8- 80mm screws with plugs. What would be the best plugs to use in this situation to improve the hold against the plasterboard. Thanks

Yeh both sides were removed

I did try the universal connecting sleeve handle then went to put it in and it hit metal so wouldn't go all the way through :( I am wondering what my options are now.

The strap wrench did the trick and I was able to gain access. The screws were threaded and bent. New screws same size capped are still moving around. what would be the best way to sort this ? could I fill the screw hole with an epoxy based wood filler ?

Thanks all for your advice. I've just bought a boa constructor wrench to see if it can help remove the cover to see what's going on.

Hi sorry for the delay I've attached a photo looking upwards to show the underside. Thanks

Hi the handle on my door is sagging/loose and I can't turn the circle cover on the handle to access the screws. I've tried using a jar opener gripper. Any ideas on how I can gain access I have a feeling the screws have come away from the wood. Thanks

Hi I live in a block of flats where they are building extra floors. I am ground and the extra 2 floors are going above the 3rd this has gone through planning, structural engineer etc. I've raised an issue with my door as some of the doors on the higher floors have issue with compression due to...

Is the black cover and plastic case required for installation.

It's a flat, so the living room is the nearest room with an outside wall. The boiler is Ferroli

I have a boiler where the flue (dual flue) runs across the ceiling (with hatches in the ceiling) to the outside. My neighbour had their replaced but was advised to put the boiler on the outside wall as the flue is required to be changed and it sounded like a large/expensive job. I wondered what...

Thanks for the comments - I have inserted another copy of the image hopefully its now visible.

Hi. I had some holes in my wall. I filled them and sanded, painted but the finish is really poor. How can I make this better ? Thanks,

When I moved in a couple of the laminate floors were damaged and no spares were left. I am trying to work out the best path to fix these, they are currently hiding underneath a rug but the rug looks awkward in the room and I want to remodel the room. I am trying to avoid replacing all of the...
