Design first
A layout is drawn and agreed. Cuts follow joints where possible.
Cutting
Guided saws cut clean lines. Depth and width vary.
Filling and color
Cuts can be left open or filled and colored.
Care
Open cuts can collect dirt. Clean them routinely.
Design ideas
Grids, borders, curves and logos can all be cut into polished concrete. Scoring can echo a building feature or guide foot traffic.
Plan with the slab
Cuts should avoid structural joints and rebar where possible. A plan on paper first saves time and mistakes.
Color in the lines
Cut lines can be filled with color or left natural. Dark lines give a crisp look and light lines look softer.
Quick answers
Do cuts weaken the slab?
Properly planned shallow cuts do not.
Can I add them later?
Yes, with planning.
