Hi
I installed an awning on the back of our house today. Fixings were attached with plastic plugs and screw bolts.
It turns out the holes were too small, although I used the specified drill bit.
I cracked the bricks and mortar - see photos
I think I will remove the whole bloody thing, hope the cracks close up, and then re-fix using resin and steel anchors.
Any better ideas / other suggestions?
Bah!
Thanks
Ben
