  • Toothpicks or matches can fix most stripped screw holes but in my experience, they never seem to last. I now use small wood dowels and so far, they appear to be a more permanent repair.

    To anyone who might read this, you can always buy dowels or cylindrical stock in various sizes at your local home improvement store, then drill out the hole to whatever size dowel you have. Might actually result in a stronger bond since the hole will be regular vs irregular for a hole that has become stripped from wear.

    I would suggest getting a package of golf tees. They are tapered so you put in the hole until tight and snap it off. Works great.

    Another tip unrelated is if you wanted to use a non concrete screw to attach a picture or something use a mason bit to drill into the concrete and then use a dowel slightly larger (you may have to taper it) you can then tap the dowel into the brick hole and use a regular wood screw to attach to.

      My cabinet is still working fine after this repair. The hardest part for me was getting the screw to catch. Now it's in, it's stronger than ever!
