    Default Drilling through Aqua panels

    What is the best thing to use for drilling through the cement based aqua panels I will have a few fixings for riser rail etc which are not a problem. (Probably best to put a timber stud behind their location though ?).

    The holes that I am more concerned about are the two pipes to mixer. Not sure on cover plate size but I am guessing 30mm holes.

    Edit: what a numpty. I can simply chain drill the holes !!

    I suppose the more important thing is drilling the ceramic tiles. In the past for simple fixings I have just used a masonry drill on slow (no hammer). Where things went through the wall it was behind units. Need neatish holes in the tiles for the pipes though.
