10 Tool Innovations Every Flooring Contractor Should Have on Their Wish List

By Ken Ballin

Tools, tools, and more tools. There was no shortage of great new stuff at Surfaces 2025. While it's always great to get out and see everyone, I'm always excited to see all the new stuff just itching to make its way into the arsenal and onto the job site. This year I found quite a few new items to put on the wish list, so let's get to it.  


Rubi has a new rail saw for cutting larger tiles with some impressive new features that I have not seen on any other saw in this category. The automatic features on the DC250 Smart Advance allow the tile to be clamped to the table while the blade and motor make the cut without the user even touching the handle. This model delivers the same functionality and versatility as its predecessor with improved features including a 10” premium porcelain blade, Zero Dust attachments, and Python blade cooling system.
