Fix a hole in drywall to then be able to use the same hole?

[vincentt]

Was going to repaint a room, removed the radiator and its brackets. It turned out that an anchor bracket (top right) has come loose from the drywall :x. How do I fix this? I would like to use the same hole and attach a molly instead, or other suggested bracket, or do I have to move all 4 brackets?

You can use duck foot anchors like these in existing holes, they will hold well.

It looks good. I'll just check if it's bigger than the hole=).

How should the hole be filled? Instinctively... putty...

I think the hole for duck foot is larger than your old hole, you'll see that quickly if you get some.

Might as well go and buy one, but in the meantime, what should one fill around with?

fill up with regular "gipsfiller" It is a powder that you mix with water. Becomes similar to the gypsum board when dry. Available in small bags.
