Should You Use Wet Saw or Dry Saw? Comparison

Wet saw or dry saw? When it comes to the tile cutting, this question is the first sentence a beginner start with.

In this article, I will explain to you about both wet tile saw and dry saw, so that you get the idea about what should you use where and when.

So, Let's get started.

Before I go into the main topic, I would recommend you to visit my friend's blog post on tile saw reviews, visit The Tooly before you buy the saw for cutting the tile.

Why Wet Saw?

Wet saws are expensive but can do a ton of task for you within moments. These are mainly for the well-finished cuts without creating any dust.

The water in the cutter ensures that the cut you are making is a pure one without any scratches at the edge. Using this cutter will reduce the dust production and thus you will not need to bother about cleaning your house after tile works.

Why Dry Saw?

When you have not enough budget to buy a wet saw, you can go with dry saw. The key differences between these two are- the earlier explained one gives you perfect finished cuts with zero scratches when the later one will not provide you the scratch free cuts. You will need to polish the edges of the tiles if you want a nice finish.

Other than the finish, the dry saw will produce a lot of dust which will make your home a hectic place to live in. So you must do a lot of work to clean things up after finishing up with cutting tiles.

Conclusion

After the above explanation, It should be clear to you that I recommend the wet saw. It takes a few more bucks to buy but reduces a lot of burden from your shoulder.

So, that's it for today. I will come another day with another topic, till then. Take care.
