Precise Templating At Aqucut , we embrace the challenge of fabricating intricate step designs , including the enigmatic spiral staircases . Our secret weapon ? High-end computerised laser templating systems , accurate to the millimetre . From the first moment of templating , we ensure that every curve , angle and dimension is flawlessly plotted , setting the stage for a perfect masterpiece .
Cutting-edge CNC Technology Waterjet cutting is at the heart of what we do here at Aquacut . The state-of-the-art CNC-systems harness water and abrasive to cut through any material , such as porcelain , with pin-point precision and no breakage . Our waterjet cutting machines are technological marvels that produce stunningly accurate continuous cuts ensuring a consistent finish is presented throughout all our steps and risers .
Profiling and Polishing The beauty and safety of a project go hand in hand at Aquacut . With our expert profiling machinery , our artisans can create edge profiles to the needs of the client . Our most popular profile finish is the bullnose , where we gently round the edges of each step , enhancing the aesthetics of the tile whilst eliminating sharp edges . Not only does this remove the dangers of the step , but it also adds a new sleek aesthetic finish to the design .
Mitring and Bonding Every step and riser at Aquacut undergoes an artful mitring process , meticulously crafted to ensure a flawless union . With expert bonding using special colour-matched resin and adhesives , we forge an unbreakable connection between the porcelain , resulting in a staircase that stands the test of time .
Reduced Slip Features Reduced slip features play a paramount role in the creation of our steps and risers at Aquacut . Due to our high-end machinery and skilled artisans , we offer a wide range of reduced slip features to our clients , ensuring the safety and beauty of the project are equally as important .
