Choosing the Right Tile Cutter

The first step in achieving a professional-looking tile job is to choose the right tile cutter. This rule applies whether you are cutting ceramic tile, marble, granite, or any other flooring material. Consider the following questions before you choose: What size is my job? What am I cutting? What is my budget?

The next thing you should consider is the tile cutter size. The tile cutter must be large enough and strong enough to handle the project you’re working on, and it will need to produce cuts fast enough if you are cutting tiles for a larger area. The cutter should also be able to cut the tile you are using from end to end in just one pass. If you need to make multiple passes, your cutter is likely too small. 

Aside from these, you should think about whether you need a manual cutter or motorized cutter. The bigger, heavier, and more powerful the machine is, the more expensive it will be, but large tiling projects will wear you out if you are cutting manually. 

If you’re looking for the best tile cutters for your tile installation project, here are the top tile cutters to choose from at our store.
