First off, I know nothing when it comes to home repair. Nevertheless, I want to repaint my living room. The previous owner had shelves on the wall that apparently were held in place by these screws below. The screws seem to go about an inch deep into the wall, and I can't pull them out further than shown without it bumping up against something.
Anyone know the proper way to get these bastards out without butchering a huge area around it? I was hoping I could just pull them out and cover up the area with a little spackle, but now I'm not so sure. :'(
