What concrete cutting fixes around the house

Cutting is usually the first step of a bigger job, and a clean, planned cut keeps the rest of the work from turning into a rough tear-out.

  • A broken driveway panel

    When one section of driveway has cracked or sunk, we saw along clean lines so only that piece comes out. If the whole slab is done, see concrete driveway building.

  • A pipe under the slab

    A leaking drain or a new line under a floor or driveway means opening a trench, and a saw cut keeps the edges straight so the patch closes up neatly.

  • No way through a wall

    A new doorway, window or vent in a concrete wall needs a saw that runs on a track, which cuts square openings where a floor saw can't go.

  • A patio in the way

    Extending a patio often means cutting back an old edge first, so the new pour meets a clean face. We handle the pour too, through concrete patio construction.

Cut out one section, or replace the whole slab?

If the damage stays in one area and the rest sits flat, cutting out that section usually makes sense. If it's everywhere, I'll tell you to replace the slab.

  • Cutting out a section works when:

    • The damage stays in one area
    • The rest of the slab sits flat
    • Water drains away from the house
    • You need room for a pipe or drain
    • You need an opening, not a new slab
  • A full replacement makes sense when:

    • Cracks run across most panels
    • Large areas have sunk or tilted
    • The slab slopes toward the house
    • Patches keep failing in new spots
    • You're changing the layout anyway

How a cutting job goes

  1. You call or write

    You call or send the form with what needs cutting, and we set up a time for me to come out and look at it.

    A visit set up

  2. I look at the cut

    I come out myself, mark where the cut goes and ask what the opening is for, because a floor and a wall take different saws.

    Cut lines agreed

  3. You get it in writing

    Your estimate lists what's included and what isn't, and it says plainly whether breaking out and hauling the pieces are part of the price.

  4. We plan the cut

    If you go ahead, we check which office covers your address, handle any permit the job needs, and scan the slab when the job calls for it.

  5. Cut and clean up

    Our crew makes the cuts, then breaks out, hauls and cleans up whatever the quote covers, so you're left with an open, tidy work area.

What our concrete cutting includes

  1. Marking the cut lines

    We lay out every line before the saw starts, so the opening lands where your project needs it.

  2. Scanning the slab

    When the job calls for it, we scan for rebar, the steel bars inside a slab, plus cables, conduit and pipes.

  3. Flat sawing slabs

    A walk-behind saw cuts level slabs like driveways, patios and garage floors, with water on the blade to keep dust down.

  4. Wall sawing

    A saw mounted on a track cuts straight openings in concrete walls where a floor saw can't work.

  5. Core drilling

    A diamond core bit cuts clean round holes for pipes, conduit, drains and other utility lines.

  6. Breakout and hauling

    When the quote includes it, we break up the cut panels, haul them off and clear the slurry, the wet grit the blade leaves.

What changes the cost of cutting concrete?

The slab itself sets most of the price. Thicker concrete and concrete with steel in it take longer to saw, and cutting a wall costs more per foot than cutting a floor because it needs a different saw on a track. The length of the cut matters too, though on a small job the cost of getting the saw to your house can outweigh the footage.

The other big piece is what happens after the cut. Breaking up the panels and hauling them away can cost more than the sawing, so we tell you up front whether your quote covers it. Scanning, a permit, or indoor work where the air has to be kept clear can each add to the price and push the start date. Your written estimate spells out every one of them, so you can decide what you need before anything gets cut.

Why Enterprise homeowners call us to cut concrete

I started this business in 2013, and I still come out to look at jobs myself. Before we cut, I want to know what's inside the slab, so we scan for steel, cables and pipes when the job calls for it. I'd rather lose a bid than sell you a bigger tear-out than your project needs.

The sawing is only half the job, so your estimate says in writing whether breaking out and hauling are included, and what isn't. If something is out of our hands, I'll say so before we start. Our work is backed by our satisfaction guarantee. Call (702) 374-0991 or send the form to set up a visit.

Questions about cutting concrete

How much does concrete cutting cost per foot?

Professional saw cutting of concrete slabs across the US usually costs about $4 to $15 per linear foot, and that's for the sawing, not for breaking out or hauling the pieces. Steel in the slab, deeper cuts and wall sawing push the price up, and on small jobs a minimum charge can set the price. Breaking up and hauling can cost more than the cut itself, so ask any cutter whether their quote includes it.

Do I need a permit to cut concrete in Enterprise, NV?

The county's list of work that doesn't need a permit names low walks, driveways and minor demolition but not concrete cutting, so the Clark County Building Department is the place to ask about your job. Machine trenching of 100 feet or more, or tearing out a structure of 1,000 square feet or more, also needs a county dust control permit. We check which office covers your address before we start, handle the application when a permit is needed, and tell you up front if anything is on you.

What license does a concrete cutting contractor need in Nevada?

A C-5 concrete contracting license from the Nevada State Contractors Board covers sawing, cutting, drilling and coring concrete. The board also lists a separate A-5 diamond and core drilling classification, so it's fair to ask a cutter which one they hold and check it with the board. We're licensed and fully insured.

Can a concrete saw hit pipes or cables in my slab?

It can if nobody checks first, because rebar, post-tension cables, conduit and pipes don't show from the surface. Ground-penetrating radar, a scan that sees into the slab, can find them, and many cutting jobs start there. Post-tension cables are steel cables held under high tension, so if a cut could reach them, the job may need the building's drawings and a scan before any saw starts, and we scan whenever the job calls for it.

How long does concrete cutting take?

The sawing is usually the quick part, and the schedule mostly turns on what has to happen before and after it. A permit or a scan can add time up front, and breaking out and hauling the panels adds time at the end. I'll walk you through the order when I write your estimate.

What is the best way to cut an opening in a concrete floor or wall?

Use a diamond core drill for round holes and a saw for straight-sided openings, with a flat saw on floors and driveways and a track-mounted wall saw on walls. Indoors, a gas saw needs ventilation that meets OSHA standards, or the job switches to an electric, hydraulic or air-powered saw. I'll tell you which one your job takes when I come out.
