Sky Q installation

Hello Sky people,

My Sky+ Box died a few weeks ago. I have an appt for a Sky Q box to be installed. At present the cablesfrom my dish are fed through an air vent in thick wall. An engineer to arrive before Christmas but did not want to drill another hole for the cables. My cottage has very thick stone walls, will the next engineer scheduled to arrive his month have:

a) skills to drill through a thick stone wall

b) the drill and bit to enable him, if he is able to?

Would it just be easier to get a local builder to driill a hole?

@gingerpig If you wish to ensure that the next Sky installation engineer can easily pass their cables through your thick wall then I suggest that you employ a local builder to drill a 10mm hole through your wall.
