Default mounting mini-shelf onto tiled wall

Am new to diy and need some drilling advice here as i need to mount a
mini-shelf onto my tiled wall.

have managed to drill thru my tile with an 'impact drill' (apparently
not a hammer drill as it just rotates).

now the my masonry bit hits bricks and it wont get thru anymore.

does it mean i need to get a 'hammer drill' instead?


What type of bit are you using? A twist drill will go through tile, but
just sit and turn and get dull with brick. Get a masonry bit and it will go
right in.
