While something of a DIY novice I have used a standard drill on inside walls and for the most part the drill does the job. That is until I come to solid brick and I barely make any progress whatsoever (not even a 1/4 inch)? I am using the correct masonry bit so that is definetly not the reason
I assume that my drill is not powerful enough and need a new drill or am I missing something?
The following is the drill spec that I am currently using:
Draper Hammer Drill
Voltage: 230v/240 - 50 Hz
Motor 550w
Speed (no load) 0-3000rpm
Drilling capacity:
Steel 12mm, Masonry 15mm and Wood 25mm
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm glad it's sorted, cause I didn't have a scooby 😐

Well I can put floating shelves up and change a plug but that's about it.
