Waterjet
waterjet cutting opens the door to intricate shapes, crisp inlays, and repeatable parts in natural stone and a wide range of metals. Waterjet cutting is a cold-cutting process, which helps avoid heat-related distortion and makes it ideal for detailed architectural features, logos, patterns, and custom profiles.
Have a concept, CAD file, or even a sketch? We can help translate it into cut-ready geometry and fabricate components that install cleanly and look sharp.

what waterjet makes possible
Intricate geometry—without compromise
Waterjet cutting excels at curves, tight radii, and detailed shapes that are difficult to achieve with conventional sawing.
Clean, consistent edges
Because it’s a cold-cut process, waterjet cutting avoids the heat-affected zone associated with thermal cutting methods—supporting accuracy and material integrity.
Repeatability for multi-piece patterns
From a single emblem to a plaza-scale layout, waterjet enables consistent parts that align predictably across a full installation.
stone, metal and mixed-material details
We routinely work with the full range of natural stones we supply and fabricate, and we can also cut many metals for architectural accents, lettering, plates, and decorative features.
Popular applications include:
Stone inlays, medallions, and logos for floors, plazas, and lobbies
Metal inlays and lettering set into stone (wayfinding, addresses, branding)
Decorative paving and hardscape graphics (silhouettes, maps, patterns)
Custom profiles and shapes for architectural stone elements and feature panels
stunning inlays
Waterjet-cut inlays are one of the most effective ways to add identity to a space—whether that’s a subtle motif in a private garden court or a high-visibility signature element in a public setting.
From organic silhouettes to crisp typography, the goal is the same: tight alignment, clean geometry, and a finished look that is unique and intentional.
STRAIGHFORWARD PROCESS FOR DESIGN PROFESSIONALS, CONTRACTORS AND OWNERS
Send your concept — CAD files are ideal (we can also start from sketches).
We review geometry + materials — confirm scale, layout, and stone/metal selection.
Cut + verify — fabricate parts for accuracy and fit.
Deliver install-ready components — labeled and organized to make field installation efficient.
Have an unusual condition or a complex pattern? We’re happy to collaborate early so detailing and installation go smoothly.
