I'm looking for a decent drill, good enough power that can go through brick walls. Can anyone recommend any? I have all the drill bits though,","comment":[{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51834804","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"wayners"},"datePublished":"2023-12-26T10:49:09.000Z","text":"DeWalt Extreme masonry bit will drill any wall. I've used my non hammer 10.8v battery drill in concrete fence H posts all be it a bit slow making hole but it worked..
A good drill bit on a lower speed in any hammer drill will drill no problem.
Big SDS drills are the best but heavy to hold and can wander with weight.
Maybe a small Bosch SDS 240v £70 ish will do you? Will drill anything. Bits hold tight as well"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51834912","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"moneysaver80"},"datePublished":"2023-12-26T10:59:21.000Z","text":"Cheap Lidl/Aldi will do fine for occasional DIY"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51835393","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"EndlessWaves"},"datePublished":"2023-12-26T11:48:54.000Z","text":"Bricks come in a wide range of hardness so every drill can go through some bricks, but a lot will struggle with the hardest bricks.
If you've got bits then you presumably already own a drill. Is it being replaced because it's broken or because it's struggling? Knowing which drill it is would give some idea of the hardness of bricks you may be dealing with."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51834445","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Willy_Wonka"},"datePublished":"2023-12-26T10:07:50.000Z","text":"What do you mean by \"go though a brick wall\"?
Most normal combis will drill a hole in a brick wall but if you want to drill all the way through a brick wall you really need an SDS drill. It also depends on the diameter of the hole you need."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51837247","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"andynicol"},"datePublished":"2023-12-26T16:25:08.000Z","text":"Budget?
