Hi
I am going to do drilling, hammering nails etc. into the brickwork of
my house's interior walls. I need acabledetectorbut 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?
Cables buried inbrick? Do you mean chased and plastered over in a plasteredbrickwall? If so my el cheapocableand pipe locator easily finds them in a
plastered chase. It snot so reliable behind plasterboard as it picks up the
nails etc.

Hi Mike and thanks for getting back to me.
Well, if a cheap detector does the job that's great.
What I dont understand is why something like the one I originaly
bought (costing £30) made a point of saying that it could not detect
pipes/cables in brick?
Cheers
Tony
