Top Tile Saw Brands

If you’re planning on redecorating your bathroom or kitchen in the near future then a high quality tile saw is an essential tool. While it can be cheaper to rent a tile saw if you’re a DIY fan then you may want to buy one in order to save rental costs in the long term. However, choosing a tile wet saw isn’t always easy because there are many different brands available. Here’s an overview of some of the more popular brands of the tile saw but you should be aware that this isn’t an exhaustive list.

Skil Tile Saws

Skil tools are a company that’s been around since 1924 and have a reputation for high quality power tools. They provide tools for both DIY enthusiasts as well as professionals so you’ll be able to find a wet tile saw that suit your needs.

Northern Industrial Tile Saws

Northern Industrial are another common brand known for creating tile wet saws although they haven’t been around for as long as Skil. However, they provide a number of different tile saws ranging from basic models that only cost around $60 right up to professional saws that cost anywhere up to $700. Make sure you understand exactly what you need from a wet saw before you choose one in order to avoid overspending or choosing a tool that doesn’t live up to your expectations.

MK Diamond Tile Saws

If you’ve spent any time looking for power tools then you’ve probably already heard of MK Diamond because they are one of the most established brands around. Established in 1868, MK Diamond has a lot of experience creating power tools for both the commercial and personal markets. Again, you need to be aware of exactly what you need from a tile saw before you choose one because they provide a number of different options.

Other ceramic tile saw brands worth mentioning are QEP, DeWalt, Northern Industrial, Ridgid, and Felker.

When you’re choosing a wet saw make sure you take into account your budget, how much you’re going to use the tile cutter and which type of jobs you’re going to be using it on before you buy. While it can be tempting to get a professional model in reality most DIY fans will be happy to use one of the more basic models. Setting a budget is a good way to cut down on the number of brands of tile wet saws that are available and help you to avoid spending a lot of money on a tile saw you don’t really need.
