Concrete Cutting
Precision diamond cutting, coring, and controlled openings in concrete — clean, low-vibration, and delivered on schedule.

Concrete cutting is the controlled removal, sizing, and opening of hardened and reinforced concrete using diamond-tipped tools. Because the cut is driven by diamond segments rather than impact, it produces clean, accurate openings with no overbreak to the surrounding structure.
Critically, our wire-saw and floor-saw methods generate no noise, vibration, or dust — making them ideal for sensitive and occupied sites such as live banks, bridges, and operating plants, where Power Builders has cut everything from elevator-door openings to large-diameter sewage pipes.
Why You Need It
When an opening, demolition, or modification is needed in existing concrete, the method matters as much as the result. Uncontrolled breaking transmits vibration and micro-cracking into the surrounding structure, damaging elements that were never meant to be touched and creating expensive remedial work.
Diamond cutting removes only what is specified, with smooth edges that need little or no making-good. It is faster, quieter, and safer — allowing work to proceed near sensitive equipment, occupied spaces, and load-bearing members without compromising the integrity of the structure.

-
Site Assessment & Marking
Our engineers survey the area, locate embedded services and reinforcement, and mark out the exact cut lines and penetrations to the approved drawings.
-
Method & Safety Setup
We select the right diamond system for the section and access, isolate the work zone, and set up water supply and slurry management before any cutting begins.
-
Cutting & Coring
Trained operators execute the cuts and cores with diamond tooling, holding tight tolerances while keeping vibration to the surrounding structure to a minimum.
-
Clearing & Handover
Removed sections are safely lifted out, slurry and debris are cleared, and the opening is handed over clean and ready for the next trade.
Techniques & Equipment
- Diamond Wire Saw Deep and large-section cuts where saws cannot reach
- Floor & Wall Saw Straight, accurate openings in slabs and walls
- Ring Saw Deeper plunge cuts in tight access
- Hand Saw Confined-space and finishing cuts
- Core Drilling Clean circular penetrations for services
- Hammer / Percussion Drilling Anchoring and fixing preparation

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Diamond cutting is a low-vibration process that removes only the marked area with clean edges, avoiding the cracking and over-break associated with mechanical breaking.
Yes. We use wet-cutting with managed slurry extraction, which keeps airborne dust down and makes the method suitable for occupied and live environments.
Yes. Diamond tooling cuts through concrete and embedded steel reinforcement in a single pass, which is why it is preferred for structural openings and modifications.
Yes. The low noise, low vibration, and controlled debris make diamond cutting well suited to plants, hospitals, and commercial buildings that remain in use.
