Steel reinforcement bars are often imbedded in concrete to provide strength and stability. Care needs to be taken when cutting through those bars to prevent future corrosion, and an experienced concrete cutting contractor will ensure the job is done right.

04/25/2024

One of the biggest advantages of water jet cutting is its inherent cold cutting quality. This allows materials to be cut that would otherwise be burned, melted, or cracked by other cutting methods involving thermal processes.

If you need portions of a parking lot removed, we recommend coordinating closely with the concrete installers to minimize down time and safety issues. Once we cut out the requested sections, you want the pouring to begin as soon as possible so there are no open holes in the surface.

04/18/2024

Abrasives are typically added to the water jet system to make clean cuts in metal. However, the development of new extreme pressure systems could reduce operational costs and increase flexibility because they can cut tough metals without the need for abrasives.

Adding a new bathroom can add tremendous value to your home, but adding pipes and plumbing lines can be difficult in concrete floors or walls. However, core drilling (a type of concrete cutting) can be performed to create the access points you need.

One of the benefits of using water-jet cutting for glass is versatility. Hole drilling is easy for water jets, as is stained glass cutting. There is no need to etch and break when you are cutting glass with water jets, so there’s less wasted material.

04/09/2024

Overcuts in concrete are where cuts from different directions meet, and there is some incision beyond the intersection; it may or may not create structural problems. For any reason, if overcuts are best avoided, let us know so we can adjust our blades and techniques.

04/04/2024

Stone countertops involve a variety of different cuts. Edges that join together need to be rough, edges need to be smooth and rounded, and holes for faucets or sinks need to be precise. Water jet cutting can create all of these cuts without causing stress to the stone.

04/02/2024

Who needs a concrete cutting contractor? You do if you need to remove a concrete slab, cut an opening for doors, windows or mechanical access, or score concrete for decorative or practical purposes like channeling runoff.

03/28/2024

You can often save material by using a water jet cutting machine. As each part or design can be closely nested together, material waste is minimized. This is a major cost saving benefit of using water jets when compared with other methods.

03/26/2024

While concrete is an excellent building material because of its durability, it can be notoriously difficult to cut into when it’s time to renovate a building. Since concrete can be tricky to work with, it’s often best to leave that type of work to a skilled concrete cutting contractor.

03/21/2024

Did you know that the water which is used in water jet cutters can be recycled and used again? Because water jet cutters can be operated on a recycled system, less waste water is produced and water that is eventually discarded is free of hazardous materials.

03/19/2024

What is the thickness of concrete that be cut through with a concrete saw? While it depends on the type of saw being used, it is possible to cut through a slab of concrete that is as thick as 60 inches. For deeper cuts, larger and longer blades are also available.

03/14/2024

Smartphone covers of laminated glass are becoming more and more popular since they allow the same feel for the user while providing protection. These are often made with water jet cutting, since it can cut through the layered glass with incredible precision.

03/12/2024

Concrete is an integral part of the Roman Pantheon. The columns are granite, but the huge dome is concrete. Built 2,000 years ago, the dome is still the world's largest reinforced dome, with a height and diameter of 142 feet.

03/07/2024

The power of high-pressure water cutting can be enhanced with the introduction of abrasive materials into the flow of water. The idea of abrasive water jets was first developed in the 1970s to cut everything from titanium to stainless steel.

02/29/2024

The earliest water jet cutting machines produced operating pressures that ranged from 30,000 to 35,000 psi. Today, most industrial systems are capable of generating between 60,000 and 87,000 psi, but 100,000 psi systems are in development.

02/27/2024

Flat sawing concrete cutting techniques are ideal for a variety of applications, mostly outdoors (indoor cutting is only appropriate if the area is well ventilated). These include the cutting of sidewalks, driveways, and roads.

02/22/2024

Where some cutting methods work well for thick or thin materials, or for dense materials, water jet cutting can do as effective a job on soft materials like paper or fabric, dense materials like stainless steel, and thick or thin materials. It's a one-stop resource that's fast, accurate, efficient, and eco-friendly.

02/20/2024

Concrete is defined as “a heavy, rough building material made from a mixture of broken stone or gravel, sand, cement, and water that can be spread or poured into molds and that forms a stone like mass on hardening.”

02/15/2024

Our water jet cutting processes offer significant advantages. Multi-head systems can produce multiple parts simultaneously to reduce production time, plus precision cutting optimizes material use, reduces waste and eliminates most secondary finishing requirements.

02/13/2024

The average global production of concrete equals to about 5 billion cubic yards. Based on this large amount of concrete production, specialists skilled in concrete cutting are crucial for any construction project.
