When Is Slab Sawing Necessary and How to Ensure Precision?

By David Waters & Son • June 11, 2025
When it comes to selective demolition and structural renovations, slab sawing is one of the most effective and efficient methods available. At David Waters & Son , we’ve been using this specialized concrete cutting technique for decades to help contractors, builders, and property managers tackle even the most complex projects with speed and precision. What is Slab Sawing Slab sawing, also called flat sawing, involves cutting horizontal concrete surfaces like floors, roads, and foundations using a diamond blade mounted on a walk-behind saw. It’s commonly used to remove sections of concrete cleanly without damaging surrounding materials or structures. When is Slab Sawing Needed? • Slab sawing is the go-to method for a wide range of structural and renovation needs, such as: • Cutting floors for plumbing or electrical trenching • Removing cracked or sunken slabs • Creating expansion joints in large concrete pours • Accessing subgrades for repairs • Adjusting floor layouts in commercial buildings It’s also ideal for interior work, where traditional jackhammering would create excessive dust, noise, and disruption. How to get Accurate Cuts Precision is essential in slab sawing, and it starts with using the right equipment. At David Waters & Son, we use high-powered electric slab saws that can cut up to 18 inches deep while producing no fumes or excessive noise—perfect for indoor or occupied environments. Our process includes: • Detailed measurements and layout markings • Selecting the proper blade for material and depth • Supporting the surrounding slab to prevent shifting or cracking • Expert handling by trained technicians to ensure smooth, even cuts Slab Cutting in Delaware Whether you’re preparing for a renovation, removing damaged concrete , or installing new utilities, slab sawing is a clean, effective solution.
