Default Cable detectors that work in BRICK

Hi

I am going to do drilling, hammering nails etc. into the brickwork of
my house's interior walls. I need a cable detector but none of the
ones I have seen detect pipes/cables in BRICK. 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
