Slab Sawing
Using Walk behind saws to cut roadways (both concrete and asphalt), bridge decks, slab on grade for utility trenches, demolition, or joints, and sawing of elevated decks for openings or demolition. Our saws are powered by either diesel or three phase electric and can saw up to 30” in depth.
Selective Demolition
We provide demo and removal of concrete and masonry. This is done by cutting, rigging, and breaking. We also replace and finish concrete for utility trenches.
Core Drilling
Drilling walls and floors are primarily done to pass pipes and conduits through concrete and masonry. We drill from ½” to 56” diameter holes by using core drills that are electric or hydraulic.
Wall Sawing
Wall sawing consists of using rail-mounted, motor, and diamond blade system to cut perfectly straight vertical or horizontal cuts in concrete walls or floors. A typical situation where a wall saw might be used is to cut precise openings for doorways, windows, or ventilation shafts. A wall saw can be used in conjunction with other demolition methods or for removal of concrete sections by rigging.
The actual sawing is performed by hydraulics powered by diesel or three phase electric or by Hy-cycle electric motors.
The use of a diamond blade and a wall saw can provide significant cost advantages over other demolition methods.
Wire Sawing
Wire sawing originated in the stone and granite quarries. It is ideal for cutting thick concrete structures.
Multi strand cable with diamond beads spaced evenly is wrapped around a series of pulleys and is continuously pulled through the concrete structure. Virtually, no concrete structure or cross section is too large to cut. It is ideal for cutting piers, footers, machinery bases, and bridge sections.
Our wire saws are either hydraulic or Hy-cycle electric.
Pavement & Slab Joint Sealing
We have completed miles of joint sawing, shaping, cleaning, and sealing. We have worked on roads and warehouses in Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Washington, DC, and Delaware.
Two part Polyurea, silicone, and neoprene compression sealers are used. The proper sawing, shaping, and cleaning of joints are critical steps to ensure the sealant will adhere to the concrete so it can withstand repeated expansion and compression as the pavement slabs expand and contract with temperature and moisture changes.
Concrete Grinding & Polishing
Grinding is done using a planetary grinding machine, powered by three phase electric, along with a large HEPA vacuum to eliminate any airborne dust particles. The diamond metal bond tools remove the top layer of the concrete surface. Used for floor repairs and removal of mastic, thin set epoxy paint is also used to prepare concrete for coatings or toppings.
Polishing is one of the most innovative and economical options available today. Polished concrete flooring is used in warehouse, retail, and decorative facilities. From showrooms to industrial plants, government buildings to retail facilities, dry polished concrete floors are quickly becoming the fastest growing choice to ever hit the industry.
Concrete Floor Coatings
We provide a variety of products, colors, and materials: epoxy, polyurea, and polyaspartic for both commercial projects as well as residential garages and basements.
