Cutting standard or decorative control joints are made possible by the use of diamond cutting blades with various types of concrete saws.

Early Entry concrete saws are some of the most commonly used saws for new concrete. With this type of concrete saw, control joints can be cut within one to two hours after the final finish is complete. Using this saw to cut control joints is one of the best ways to prevent random cracking on a concrete surface.

Floor concrete saws are ideal for making repairs on existing concrete or asphalt that has eroded or experienced damage. This type of saw typically uses a 14-18 inch blade in order to produce significantly deeper cuts in a concrete surface. Larger machines can accommodate blades that cut as deep as 24 inches.

Hand-held saws are extremely versatile tools that can achieve great results. These saws are primarily used for cutting concrete block, but with a keen eye and a steady hand they can be used to cut straight control joints on a concrete slab. These saws use large (14”-16”) diamond blades to cut directly into a concrete surface.
Decorative Concrete Cutting
Decorative concrete cutting can be achieved through a variety of methods. The most common way is by using a diamond cutting blade attached to a hand grinder with a safety guard. This method allows the use of a small 4.5” blade, making it possible to create more intricate line work on a concrete surface. Be sure to use proper safety equipment such as safety glasses and gloves as you will be working more closely with your surface.
