How Precision Concrete Cutting's units have held up
Openings and closures from FDD Item 20-style unit history, 2012–2014: began the window at 28 units; 15 units opened, 2 closed, ending at 41 units.
What about earnings?
We don't publish per-brand earnings figures — for Precision Concrete Cutting or anyone else. The only primary source is Item 19 of the brand's own franchise disclosure document (FDD), and no law requires a franchisor to publish one, so the "average owner income" numbers circulating elsewhere are usually unsourced or survivorship-biased. Ask Precision Concrete Cutting for its current FDD and read Item 19 yourself — and if there is no Item 19, that silence is information too.
What this data can't tell you
Everything on this page comes from disclosure filings — fees, ranges, and unit counts. Four questions that matter just as much are not in any filing we can source, so we say so instead of guessing:
- The hours and the labor
- No dataset field says whether Precision Concrete Cutting is a manage-from-a-laptop business or a 60-hour week in disguise. Item 15 of the FDD states whether you're obligated to run the business personally, and Item 11 lists what the franchisor actually does for you — then ask current owners what their week looks like (validation calls), not the sales team.
- How hands-on the ownership really is
- "Semi-absentee" is a pitch, not a filing field. Treat any hands-off claim as unverified until it's consistent with Item 15 and with what multiple current franchisees tell you — what absentee ownership actually means.
- Your territory — whether it's protected, and whether it's open
- Two territory questions sit outside our data. Whether Precision Concrete Cutting grants a protected or exclusive area is set in Item 12 of the FDD and varies brand to brand — some grant none, and the carve-outs (online sales, national accounts) matter as much as the map. And filing data can't say what's open in your market this month; only Precision Concrete Cutting can confirm current availability. Ask both before you inquire, and get the answer in writing.
- What owners earn
- Covered honestly above: our dataset has no earnings fields, the only primary source is the brand's own Item 19, and here is how to read that evidence.

From the franchisor's materials
We offer franchises to qualified individuals and entities to own and operate a franchise under our Precision Concrete Cutting service marks, trade names, programs, and systems. Our franchisees offer services to alter existing uneven sidewalk panels using a saw cutting technique. Saw cuts remove the abrupt and raised edge of the sidewalk tapering back according to the specifications of the particular client.
