Hi all,
Just moved into a new flat, want to put some blinds up and find that my masonry drill makes no impression once through the plaster. I assume that there is a concrete lintel above the window which is causing the problem. I'm using the same (admittedly old) drill bit that I used to drill into brickwork recently, attached to my hammer action cordless drill.
I can borrow an old corded drill, but I fear that it's the drill bit that is the problem. Is there a special drill bit which I need for this job?
