At Northwest Waterjet, we offer specialist stone cutting services using advanced waterjet technology, designed to handle both natural and engineered stone with precision and care. Whether you’re working with granite, marble, slate, limestone, or quartz, we provide clean, accurate cuts without risk of cracking, chipping, or heat damage.
Waterjet Cutting for Stone – The Ideal Solution
Waterjet cutting is the most effective and reliable method for processing stone materials. Traditional cutting methods often cause stress fractures or edge chipping, while waterjet uses a cold, abrasive cutting process to deliver smooth, high-quality results across all types of stone.
Benefits of Waterjet Cutting for Stone:
- No Heat-Affected Zones: Avoids cracking or thermal stress in brittle materials.
- Smooth, Precise Edges: Minimises chipping and produces clean profiles ready for installation.
- Complex Shapes & Inlays: Ideal for intricate designs, signage, and decorative patterns.
- Versatile Material Handling: Suitable for granite, marble, slate, travertine, quartz, sintered stone, and more.
Our waterjet systems are widely used in the architectural, interior design, and construction sectors for cutting stone tiles, countertops, hearths, floor inlays, and decorative panels.
Laser Cutting for Stone (Not Suitable)
Laser cutting is not suitable for stone, as natural materials like granite and marble do not react well to intense heat. The high temperatures can cause spalling, cracking, and significant surface damage. For this reason, waterjet cutting is the recommended method for stone.
