Ngl, the downed lines on my block made me rethink how we anchor everything
Honestly, I drove past three houses with cables ripped off the sides from that wind last night. Tbh, it hit me that we might be skimping on the wall anchors in older homes. I saw the same cheap plastic plugs I used to use just lying in the mud. So on my job today, I swapped to metal anchors even though it took a bit longer. The homeowner asked why, and I explained it prevents future damage like on his street. Honestly, seeing the problem right where I live made it real for me. Ngl, it's worth the extra few minutes to do it right.

I learned about anchors the hard way after my towel rack fell off. Now I use metal ones like they're going out of style.

Learning about anchors the hard way is rough, but metal ones save the day.

Metal anchors are the only way to go for real.
