Before & After Photos

The Owners of this single-family house down in Apache Junction, Arizona, were experiencing some problems with their slabs. The concrete slabs got cracked, and those cracks were extending in all directions. After doing some research for concrete repair companies close to Apache Junction, the Homeowners decided to move forward with AZFS based n our experience, quality, and amazing warranties.

Nevaeh Ochoa, our dedicated Customer Care Representative, coordinates appointments and ensures seamless communication.

When concrete cracks, it not only detracts from the aesthetics but also creates avenues for moisture to penetrate the soil underneath, exacerbating the problem.

In Apache Junction, Arizona, a homeowner noticed concerning horizontal cracks forming on the exterior foundation walls of their residence. These cracks, which started small, began to expand over time due to the oxidation of rebar within the concrete. Understanding the severity of the issue and the potential for further damage if left unaddressed, the homeowner reached out to Arizona Foundation Solutions. The initial inspection was scheduled by Brianna, the Customer Care Representative, who ensured the homeowner's needs were promptly met. Josh, the Design Specialist, then evaluated the problem, confirming that the cracks were indeed a result of rebar oxidation, which could lead to significant structural issues if not repaired.

The homeowner was informed about the limitations of traditional stem wall repair methods, which often fail to provide long-lasting results due to recurring oxidation and crack reopening. With concerns about the safety and longevity of their home, they were eager to explore a more reliable solution. Arizona Foundation Solutions proposed their advanced Heavy Concrete Stem Wall Patch, designed specifically to address the common failures of traditional repair systems and provide a durable, cost-effective solution.

After Project Description:

Following the initial assessment, the repair project in Apache Junction, Arizona, was overseen by John, also known as Bo, the experienced Foreman at Arizona Foundation Solutions. The team utilized the Heavy Concrete Stem Wall Patch system, a cutting-edge repair method that prevents rebar oxidation and ensures the longevity of the foundation. This system is a significant improvement over traditional methods, which often fail due to recurring oxidation issues.

The repair process involved carefully removing the damaged sections of the stem wall, treating the exposed rebar to prevent further oxidation, and applying the Heavy Concrete Stem Wall Patch. The result was a smooth, reinforced foundation wall that not only restored the structural integrity of the home but also provided peace of mind to the homeowner, knowing that their foundation was now protected against future deterioration.

The project was completed efficiently and effectively under John's supervision, with the homeowner expressing satisfaction with both the process and the outcome. The advanced repair system used by Arizona Foundation Solutions has now safeguarded the home from potential future damage, proving the effectiveness of their innovative approach to stem wall repair.

Composite interlocking can be performed to tie the broken pieces of the concrete together. The existing crack will be cleaned, and non-parallel lines will be cut across the existing crack. Next carbon fiber laminate stitches will be inserted into the non-parallel cuts and then the gaps will be filled with a two-part poly. Finally, the crack should be ground smooth to minimize the differential.
