You have a concrete roof, and you need an opening in it. Maybe it is a staircase to the terrace. Maybe it is a lift shaft, a skylight, or a hole for a big duct. The old way is to hire labour with hammers and breakers. It looks cheap at first, but it often ends with cracked beams, broken plaster, dust in every room, and a repair bill that is bigger than the job.
Core Cutting India provides professional roof cutting service in Unnao using diamond cutting machines. We cut only the area you mark, in clean straight lines, through concrete and steel. The rest of your building stays safe and untouched.

Why Roof Cutting Is Needed in Unnao Today
Unnao sits between Lucknow and Kanpur, and that position is changing the city fast. New colonies are coming up around Shuklaganj and the Trans-Ganga City side. Old houses in Unnao city, Purwa, Bangarmau, Safipur and Auras are being extended with new floors. Industrial and commercial units along the Lucknow–Kanpur corridor keep expanding, and leather and allied units need layout changes inside existing buildings.
All this means more owners want to change an existing roof, not rebuild it. Common reasons include:
- Adding a staircase to reach the terrace or a new floor
- Installing a lift in a home, hospital, or office
- Fitting a solar water heater or panel structure with cable passage
- Opening the roof for a skylight or better ventilation
- Making space for a big water tank, exhaust, or duct line
- Removing a weak or damaged portion after water leakage
- Adjusting layouts in shops, showrooms, and workshops
In each case, cutting is safer and neater than breaking.
Our Roof Cutting Services in Unnao
RCC Roof and Slab Cutting
We cut roofs and slabs of different thicknesses, including heavily reinforced ones. Depth, length and shape are planned before we start.
Staircase Opening in an Existing Roof
This is the most common request from homeowners. We make a clean opening of the exact size your mason or engineer gives, so finishing becomes easy.
Lift Shaft and Elevator Cutting
For adding a lift in an old building, we cut multiple floor slabs to match the shaft plan, keeping edges straight and aligned.
Skylight, Ventilation and Light-Well Openings
Rectangular, square, or custom-shaped openings for daylight and airflow.
Duct, Pipe and Cable Passages
For round holes, we use core drilling. You can also read about our core cutting solutions for plumbing, AC, and electrical lines.
Partial Roof Removal and Damage Repair
When only one part of the roof is weak, we cut it out in sections, so the healthy part stays intact.
Industrial and Commercial Cutting
Openings for machinery, conveyor lines, exhaust systems, and service shafts in factories, warehouses, hospitals, schools and hotels.
Machines and Technology We Use
Using the right machine is the difference between a clean opening and a damaged roof. Here is what we choose from, based on your slab:
- Wall Saw: A rail-guided diamond blade that makes long, deep, straight cuts. Best for thick slabs and large openings.
- Slab or Hand Saw: Good for shallow depth, small jobs, and quick cuts.
- Ring Saw: Reaches deeper than a normal blade, useful at corners and beam junctions.
- Wire Saw: A diamond-coated wire that cuts very thick or hard-to-reach concrete.
- Core Drilling Rig: Makes round holes of different diameters for pipes and ducts.
- Water Cooling and Slurry Control: Water cools the blade and holds down dust. Slurry is collected, so your floors stay clean.
Diamond cutting works because the blade grinds through concrete and steel together, instead of shaking it apart.
How Our Roof Cutting Works: 7 Simple Steps
- Tell us what you need. Call or WhatsApp 7009679903 with your location, roof thickness, and the size of the opening.
- We inspect the site. We check the slab, beams, columns, reinforcement pattern, and machine access.
- Marking and approval. Cutting lines are marked on the roof and confirmed with you.
- Safety setup. We arrange supports, barricades, water and power, and cover nearby areas.
- Precision cutting. Diamond blades cut along the lines in the planned order.
- Controlled removal. Cut sections are lifted or lowered carefully. Nothing is dropped.
- Cleaning and handover. We clear debris and slurry and hand over a ready opening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the cost of roof cutting service in Unnao?
Roof cutting service in Unnao generally costs between ₹60 and ₹250 per running foot. The exact amount depends on slab thickness, steel reinforcement, cutting length, and site access. Use our rate calculator or call 7009679903 for a quote.
2. Is it safe to cut an RCC roof for a staircase?
Yes, it is safe when done with diamond cutting machines by trained operators. The method causes low vibration and protects surrounding beams and walls. For load-bearing slabs, we suggest getting a structural engineer's approval first.
3. How long does roof cutting take?
A typical staircase or skylight opening takes a few hours to one day. Thick slabs, long cuts, or difficult access can take more time. We share a time estimate after checking your site.
4. Can diamond blades cut steel bars inside the roof?
Yes. Diamond blades cut through both concrete and reinforcement steel, which is why they are ideal for RCC roofs and slabs.
5. Do you offer roof cutting near me in Shuklaganj, Purwa, Bangarmau and Auras?
Yes. We serve Unnao city and nearby areas including Shuklaganj, Purwa, Bangarmau, Safipur, Auras, Hasanganj and Bighapur, along with Lucknow and Kanpur. Call or WhatsApp 7009679903 to confirm your location.
6. Will roof cutting create too much dust and noise?
No. Water-cooled diamond cutting greatly reduces dust and is much quieter than hammer breaking. It is suitable for homes, shops, clinics and schools.
7. What is the difference between roof cutting and core cutting?
Roof cutting makes large openings such as staircases, lift shafts and skylights. Core cutting makes small round holes for pipes, ducts and cables. Many projects need both.
