A lot will depend on whether it is stone veneer or solid stone construction
and the type of stone used. Granite and other hard stones will be very
difficult to drill while limestone or sandstone will be very easy. Cannot
tell from here.

It is solid stone in the foundation of a seventy year old house. After
reading the relpies I decided to go back yo Lowes and examine a free
standing hose reel, which seems to be the way to go.


I saw a pretty nice looking free standing hose reel cart at Sam's
yesterday. Looked to be beefy enough to no get dragged around when
you're pulling hose off it. Seemed to be all metal construction and have
the capacity for quite a bit of hose. I might get one to replace the two
plastic hose reel carts I currently use for a few hundred feet of hose.
