Hi


I am going to do drilling, hammering nails etc. into the brickwork of
my house's interior walls. I need acabledetector but none of the
ones I have seen detect pipes/cables inBRICK. The majority say that
they only detect items behind plasterboard. Is this normal and if not,
is there one that people could recommend?


I originally bought the Stanley intellisensor Pro but that was one of
the ones that stated that it could not cope with brickwork.


Thanks
Tony


how deep are you expecting to find pipes and cables?

Hi Jim

I don't know but I'd be hammering nails at least an inch into the
wall.
