How to attach wall soap dish?

6 years ago

The contractors helpers gutted the bathroom and lost whatever was holding this heavy porcelain soap dish . All that’s left is the 1” tall metal slide/ clip on the wall. As you can see the opening on the back of the dish is considerably larger . What’s missing and or how should it be reattached? It’s a painted sheet rock wall. Thank you!

It looks like there was a clip glued and fastened to the back of the soap dish and the clip broke off, as evidenced by the ragged holes on the soap dish.

You don’t have a lot of options there. If you were highly skilled you might be able to fabricate a matching clip that you could epoxy to the back of the soap dish. But that would be difficult to get just right even if you're skilled. The only other alternatives I can think of are to get a new soap dish, or permanently epoxy the existing soap dish to the wall.
