The owner

Meet the owner

NoCo Concrete Cutting is an owner-operated concrete cutting company serving Northern Colorado and Wyoming — founded to do the work right the first time, every time.

James Heiden is the founder of NoCo Concrete Cutting and a concrete cutting professional who has spent his career in the trade. A lifelong Greeley, Colorado resident, he lives there with his wife and their three children. He founded NoCo to fix the inefficiencies he saw at larger concrete cutting companies — jobs handed off between estimators, dispatchers and crews who never talked to each other — and he still personally oversees each project to hold the work to exacting standards. Above all, he prioritizes reliability, precision and customer satisfaction.

On the job

Built on the jobsite.

At NoCo Concrete Cutting, we believe in hard work, honest communication and building a stronger Northern Colorado. Owner James Heiden started NoCo to fix the inefficiencies he saw at bigger concrete cutting companies — and he still personally oversees every project. You get one point of contact, a clear plan and a crew that shows up ready.

More than just a cut.

  • Expert crews. Trained on the equipment they run.
  • Advanced gear. GPR, wall, flat and core rigs.
  • Local focus. Colorado and Wyoming, job by job.
  • Lasting results. Done right the first time.

How we work

GPR maps rebar, cable and conduit before any saw starts.

The whole process — How we work

Every job follows the same order. We scan first: ground penetrating radar maps rebar, post-tension cable, conduit and voids before anyone starts a saw. We cut once: the right tool for the job — track-mounted wall saw, rig-mounted core drill, walk-behind flat saw — run by people trained on it, wet, with dust and slurry controlled. We restore clean: if you want the opening or trench closed again, our pour-back service matches grade and finish. And through all of it, you talk to one person who knows your job.

Every job starts with a scan. Every NoCo job starts the same way. We scan the slab or wall with ground penetrating radar to map rebar, post-tension cables, conduit and voids. Then we choose the right tool — a track-mounted wall saw for openings, a rig-mounted core drill for round penetrations, a walk-behind flat saw for slabs and pavement — and cut once, straight and to depth. When we open something up, our pour-back service can close it again with concrete matched to the surrounding grade and finish.

Ask us about door and window openings, HVAC and plumbing penetrations, stair and elevator openings, expansion joints, trenching for utilities, slab removals and pour backs.

    Safety is the reason we scan, the reason we cut wet, and the reason the owner is on site. Rigorous protocols protect our crew, your building and everyone around the work.

  • Clean cuts. Clean sites.

    Square openings, clean cores, a site left tidy.

    A finished NoCo job looks like this: square openings, clean cores, straight joints and a site left tidy. Whether it's a single basement window or a commercial slab, the standard is the same.
