bathroom sink fell off wall

[Joeylegend]

I bought a bathroom pedestal sink from the hardware shop, but there where no fixing screws/bolts etc to fix it to the wall.
I drilled 2 holes in the wall, plugged the holes and screwed the sink to the wall with two long screws. This was not strong enough to hold the weight of the sink and it came loose from the wall.

Unfortunately for me it has taken a little bit of the plaster of around the hole, this is proving hard to fix the sink the wall again as the screws have even less grip.

Is there a better way than just two screws?

Hi there,

Get down to your local merhcants and get a set of Fischer Basin Bolts.

Can't get url to post properly. Screwfix item 71804

... and you can glue the Rawplugs in with 5 minute Araldite to stop em spinning (sometimes they spin when tightening bolts and then it's very difficult to resolve)
