Exploding bricks

Great if there is something to fix to

Ah... you live in Oxfordshire, you have posh bricks round your way, we just have the cheap old crumbly ones lol!

I got some old bricks I can lend you, but they're propping up the Ford Escort in the front garden at the moment.

I only have to look at a wall and it just disintegrates, my mate who I work with is a bit of a nancy and can get a box sized hole out with about 2mm all round the sides (guess what he gets to do!

be less aggressive ?????????????

Yep, I agree with the above a bit. However, to the OP I do know what you mean, and SDS drills can be a bit brutal. I find if the brick starts breaking up trying to fit a 25mm box, then I go more gently at it to try and get a deeper box in.

If the brick is completely knacked I normally opt for sand cement. I do like the sound of using rapid set though.

Agree with one of the above posts - decent tile adhesive is good stuff. Daz
