Diamond Cutting

Diamond cutting is a process of controlled sawing,

drilling and removal of concrete performed by

skilled operators using special saws that use

diamond impregnated blades.

Unlike the old-fashioned dusty jack hammer

method, modern concrete cutting leaves a smooth

attractive finish and utilizes water so as not to

create any dust or mess. There are many different

kinds of concrete cutting methods but the most

common are wall sawing, wire sawing and slab or

flat sawing.

floors, bridge decks and pavement.

This technique may also be used to form openings

in floor slabs for new lift shafts and stair openings,

drainage runs and structural alterations.

Hand held units are equipped with diamond blades

cutting with minimal over-cuts.
