Bathroom renovation often involves drilling, cutting, and finishing extremely hard materials such as ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles, sintered stone, quartz, and natural stone. Choosing the right diamond drill bits and saw blades is critical to avoid chipping, cracking, or costly material waste.
This guide focuses on the most common bathroom renovation scenarios—drain hole drilling, sintered stone vanity edge finishing, and tile & slab cutting—and recommends the right diamond tools and sizes for each application.
Quick Tool Overview (By Application)
- Diamond Drill Bits for Drain Holes
- Diamond Grinding & Polishing for Vanity Tops
- Diamond Saw Blades for Tile & Slab Cutting
1. Diamond Drill Bits for Bathroom Drain Holes
Drain holes are one of the most critical steps in bathroom installation. Incorrect drill bits or excessive speed can easily crack tiles or sintered stone slabs.
Recommended tool: Thin-wall continuous rim diamond core drill bits (wet use preferred).
Common drain hole sizes:
- 32 mm / 35 mm / 38 mm – Standard sink and vanity drain holes
- 45 mm / 50 mm – Floor drains and special fittings
- 65 mm – Larger drainage or pipe access holes

Bathroom vanity tops made of sintered stone or quartz require precise edge grinding and polishing after cutting or drilling.
Recommended tools:
- Diamond grinding wheels for chamfering and shaping
- Resin-bond diamond polishing pads for smooth, glossy edges
Typical grit sequence:
50–100# (rough shaping) → 200–400# (edge refinement) → 800–1500# (polishing) → 3000# (high gloss)

3. Diamond Saw Blades for Tile & Slab Cutting
Large-format tiles and sintered slabs require stable, chip-free cutting. Choosing the correct diamond saw blade ensures clean edges and reduced material loss.
Recommended blade types:
- Continuous rim blades – Ceramic & porcelain tiles
- Turbo or segmented blades – Natural stone and granite

- Mark the drilling position and apply masking tape to reduce surface chipping.
- Secure the tile or slab firmly to prevent vibration.
- Use a diamond core drill bit at low speed with constant water cooling.
- Apply light, even pressure—never force the drill.
- After drilling, smooth the edge using fine-grit polishing pads.
5. Safety & Tool Care Tips
- Always wear safety goggles, gloves, and a dust mask.
- Wet cutting and drilling significantly reduce heat and dust.
- Clean diamond tools after use and store them dry.
- Replace worn tools to maintain cutting quality and safety.
