Cut out a section, or replace the slab?
Look at how far the damage spreads and what's under it. If most of the slab is flat and solid, cutting out the bad part and pouring it back usually makes sense.
Cutting out a section works when:
- The damage stays in one area
- The rest of the slab sits flat
- The base under it is still firm
- Water drains away from the house
- You only need to get underneath
A new slab makes sense when:
- Cracks run across most of it
- The slab tilts toward the house
- Water pools in several spots
- The base has settled or washed out
- Patches would outnumber good concrete

A visit on the calendar
I come out and look
I come out myself, look at the slab and the ground around it, and talk through which saw fits your job and whether a scan makes sense.
A plan for the cut
Your estimate in writing
You get a written estimate that spells out the cut, the saw, any scan and how we'll handle the cleanup, so nothing is left to guess.
A written estimate
Cutting day
Our crew sets up and checks everything before the blade starts, with me on site, and we cut wet so the dust stays down.
Clean, straight cuts
Cleanup and what comes next
We clean up the way we agreed. If new concrete goes back in, the concrete sets the schedule for finishing and curing, the wait while it hardens, not us.
A cleared work area
What our concrete cutting includes
Marking the cut lines
We lay out and mark the lines with you before the saw comes out, so the cut lands where you want it.
Matching the saw
We pick the saw for the surface and the depth, and explain the choice so it makes sense to you.
Scanning when it's needed
If there's a chance of buried lines or cables in the slab, we settle on a scan before cutting day.
Wet cutting
Water runs to the blade while it cuts, which keeps the blade cool and keeps the dust down around your house.
Breaking out and hauling off
Once the lines are cut, we break out the pieces and haul the concrete away so you aren't left with a pile.
Sawn control joints
On a fresh slab we can saw control joints, shallow grooves that give the concrete a planned place to crack, before it picks its own.
What sets the price of concrete cutting?
Mostly it comes down to how much cutting there is and how hard each foot is to cut. A long cut costs more than a short one, and a thick slab with rebar, the steel bars that hold it together, takes longer to saw through than a thin one. Cutting a wall takes more setup than cutting a flat slab, and tight access, a scan and the cleanup we plan with you all add to it.
The schedule usually turns on the scan, if you need one, and on the weather when new concrete goes back in, because I'd rather move a pour than rush it. If we're pouring a section back, the base under it is where people want to save, and it's the one place I won't, because a cheap base settles. The written estimate after I walk the job gives you your number.
Why Rock Springs owners call us to cut concrete
I spent years on restaurant lines before I picked up a trowel, and I started this business in 2017. The kitchen taught me that the calm night is the one you prepped for. So before cutting day we settle which saw fits your job, whether the slab should be scanned and how the cleanup will go, and I'm on site while our crew cuts.
We're licensed and fully insured. Rock Springs city code has a contractor licensing section, so it's fair to ask any cutting company how it meets it, us included. Satisfaction guaranteed on every job. Call (307) 209-5832 or use the form below to set up a visit.

(307) 209-5832Questions about concrete cutting
How much does concrete cutting cost in Rock Springs, WY?
Professional concrete cutting across the US usually costs about $3 to $10 per linear foot, and your Rock Springs job gets its own number once I've walked it. Small jobs cost more per foot, because the setup is the same and gets spread over fewer feet. You'll have the price in writing before we start.
What is the best way to cut concrete, a flat saw or a wall saw?
A flat saw is the right tool for slabs, driveways and patios, and it's generally the most cost-effective way to cut. Walls, columns and raised slabs need a wall saw mounted on a track, which takes more setup and costs more per foot. Some jobs call for a wire saw instead, and we'll talk through which one fits yours before cutting day.
Will concrete cutting make a dusty mess around my house?
Usually not much dust, because most sawing runs wet, with water cooling the blade and turning the cuttings into slurry. That slurry has to be vacuumed up or contained, so we plan the wet cleanup with you ahead of time. If you're comparing crews, ask whether the walk-behind saw has a built-in system that feeds water to the blade the whole time, the setup a federal OSHA rule describes.
Does concrete need to be scanned before cutting?
Often it does, when the slab might hold utilities or post-tensioned cables, steel strands pulled tight inside the concrete. One cutting company calls a GPR scan, a radar look inside the slab, strongly recommended and often required in those cases. If you expect lines in the slab, tell us early so the scan is done before cutting day.
How do I cut a window opening into a basement wall?
Start by holding up the weight above the opening, because that wall carries part of the house. One contractor's guide does this with a temporary header that supports the joists over the opening while it's cut. A wall saw on a track then makes straight, controlled cuts that set the rough opening.
What should I know before cutting concrete in Rock Springs?
If the job includes digging, a call to One Call of Wyoming at 811 or 1-800-849-2476 two business days ahead is free and required by law, as the Wyoming Public Service Commission explains. Rock Springs also requires foundations on properties identified as subsidence-prone, ground that can shift over old mines, to follow a University of Wyoming specification for that movement. If your cut is part of foundation work, that's worth knowing before we plan it.
