| Hurry up. Get that install done quick and move on. Sounds to me like the installer wasn't using his/her head. Little or no experience on the part of the installer. Common sense and a properly trained/equipped tech would have had the tech:
A) Know what was on the other side of the wall.
B) Not be concerned with getting finished quickly to earn a commision on the install.
C) Use a sharp drill bit.
D) Use shaving cream to reduce friction.
These are only some of the ways this accident could have been prevented. Please remember, if you have an installer work on your house, talk to them for about 5 minutes and get a feel for their demeanor. Ask them about their experience, and if they've had any experience working on a similar house. QUALIFY THEM! It's your house/condo/apt.

| Re: Hurry up. Get that install done quick and move Yes it does. It is standard on the supply shelves at my garage. Shaving cream is used to reduce friction, and it picks up asbestos fibers when drilling into asbestos shingles. So you better know what you're talking about, because I do.

Re: Hurry up. Get that install done quick and move on. My kids watched while a dish installer drilled thru the wall from the out side.....into the back of the TV sitting on the floor inside.
The TV started to bog down the drill and he started jerking the bit in and out, making the TV dance on the floor. Luckly it was a cheap TV and the hole was only in the plastic case in the rear. |
