Cutting

SmallResizeThe wet saw is the best and most accurate tool of all tools for cutting tiles. It works by using water to keep the blade wet and cool while you cut the tile. You can use it to make a straight, diagonal, combination, and even very tiny cuts in ceramic or porcelain tile.

Cutting ceramic tiles may sound scary, but it is actually surprisingly easy. ... If you just have to cut a few tiles, a tungsten scribber will suffice. If you need to cut more tiles, however, a Rubi or Sigma Tile cutter or a wet saw might be more convenient.

For you (I saw a tiler do this once it looks easy) who like to get handy, Clay biscuit tiles are far easier to work with. Especially in areas that require a lot of cuts to install your tiles neatly. Porcelain is much harder to cut and can require professional tools and skills to create the same effect.

Ceramic tiles come in a lot of different styles, so it will surely help you make your floor one of a kind. On top of that, are super durable and adds a great aesthetic value to your home.

Ceramic tiles including the earthenware, stoneware or porcelain tiles are hardwearing materials which are why they are used for pony walls, rooftops, and various other purposes. In cases where they are being used as construction materials, most of us will confront the need for cutting them at some point in time. 

You can use different tools for cutting a ceramic tile. It is just like glass, so when pressure is applied on the cleanly scored surface, the ceramic tile will easily break into pieces.

To make the procedure of cutting ceramic tile easy, nine different tools and techniques are recommended the most. However, one should keep in mind that cement, stone, terracotta and a certain type of porcelain tiles should only be processed using a wet saw.

  • Manual Snap Cutter
