When having to cut a lot of tiles, you may want to try using a wet tile saw rather than a manual tile cutter. Wet tile saws use a diamond saw blade that is cooled with water that flows through the saw's water pump. Most have an overhead positioned saw blade that works along with a sliding table that is moved to position the tile below the blade. Below the sliding table is a water pan that holds the water and a the pump to direct the water up to the diamond blade.
A wet tile saw is designed to cut tiles made of ceramic, marble, granite and porcelain to leave a clean, smooth edge. A tile installer needs to cut tiles at the job site to fit the edges of a room or create the perfect look. A portable wet tile saw allows the user to cut tile as they are needed. A wet tile saw allows you to cut quicker and with better accuracy than a manual tile cutter and it will be a much cleaner faster cut. Based on the size, power and features, a wet tile saw can cost between $100 and $1000.
