Wall sawing is similar to slab sawing, except this technique is used for different cutting needs. Wall sawing can typically cut through concrete as thick as 24 inches.

Some saws, such as our Pentruder 8-20HF, have a cutting width of 40 inches. This eco-friendly saw runs solely on electricity, not hydraulics, which means there are no fumes or fluids to deal with. This minimizes environmental impact and makes the saw safe to use in indoor spaces.

Whereas slab sawing is usually performed on horizontal surfaces, wall sawing is performed on standing, vertical surfaces. Like slab sawing, wall cutting can make precision cuts while minimizing noise and dust pollution.

Wall sawing may be used for:

• Vertical or slanted cutting of concrete structures
• Constructing window and doorway openings
• Creating openings for HVAC purposes
• Other precision cuts such as cutting into foundational walls

If you�re looking for an example of wall sawing in action, take a look at our precast wall removal project. We used wall sawing to upgrade a HEB grocery store to a Super HEB store. Our technicians removed 4-5 panels each night. In total, over 250 feet of wall space was disassembled, broken into smaller pieces, and safely hauled away.

Our knowledge and precision cutting techniques allowed work to be completed overnight. As a result, the store was able to maintain normal business hours while being upgraded to a larger store. This also prevented disruption to local shoppers, who were able to visit the store and make their normal purchases.
