Asphalt cutting is a process used to create precise cuts in asphalt surfaces, often for repairs or installation of utilities. This technique involves specialized tools, such as diamond saws or asphalt saws, which can efficiently slice through the tough material. The cuts can be straight or curved, depending on the project requirements. The primary purpose of asphalt cutting is to remove damaged sections or to create openings for plumbing, electrical, or drainage systems. Proper cutting ensures that the surrounding asphalt remains intact, facilitating easier repairs and maintaining the overall integrity of the surface.
