Wall Sawing

Track-mounted diamond blade cutting for vertical concrete walls, foundations, and slabs at any angle — for openings, penetrations, and precise removal.

What We Do

Wall sawing uses a track-mounted circular diamond blade to cut through vertical concrete surfaces with precision. Unlike flat sawing which cuts horizontal slabs, wall saws operate on a guide rail system bolted directly to the wall — allowing cuts at any angle, depth, and orientation on vertical or inclined surfaces.

DSI uses wall sawing for window and door openings in concrete walls, service penetrations, partial wall removal, stairwell cutouts, and anywhere a flat saw can't operate. The track system keeps cuts straight and clean without chipping or cracking the surrounding concrete.

Common Questions
What's the difference between wall sawing and flat sawing?
Flat sawing cuts horizontal surfaces like slabs and pavement. Wall sawing uses a track-mounted system to cut vertical surfaces — walls, foundations, inclined slabs — where a walk-behind flat saw can't operate.
How deep can a wall saw cut?
Depth depends on blade diameter and wall thickness. Wall saws can typically reach 24–30 inches per pass on standard commercial concrete. Call with your wall thickness and we'll confirm.
Do you scan for rebar and conduit before cutting?
GPR scanning is available and recommended before any wall cutting where post-tension cable, conduit, or structural rebar locations are unknown. DSI can coordinate scanning prior to the saw crew mobilizing.
Can you cut openings in load-bearing walls?
DSI cuts the concrete — structural assessment and shoring are the GC or engineer's scope. We coordinate with your GC on sequencing so the cut happens after shoring is in place.
