📝 Description:
This before and after set highlights a stem wall repair project completed on July 18th, 2025. The corner section of the foundation was experiencing severe deterioration, requiring 11 feet of heavy stem wall repair along with an additional 52 feet of stem wall patching. The before photo shows flaking concrete and exposed rebar, while the after photo reveals a structurally reinforced and cleanly finished corner. This type of repair is critical in preventing further corrosion, cracking, and structural failure, especially in Arizona’s dry but reactive soil conditions.
The stem wall of the Phoenix home began showing serious warning signs of failure. This was due to the oxidation of the rebar inside the concrete. Our expert stem excavated the area near the damaged stem wall and chipped out existing failed concrete to fractured rock and behind existing rebar. We removed the existing rebar and replaced it with a non-ferrous composite. To finish, we coated and patched the area with a cement patch and backfilled the excavated area around the home!
