Concrete Repair Before & After Photos

The stem wall at the Phoenix home began to flacking and cracking. This was due to the rebar becoming oxidized and weakening the concrete around it. We came in and installed our patented non-ferrous composite.

The concrete stem wall on this late 1970s home had a few areas of concrete cracking, flaking and crumbling.  

Mid repair, we confirmed the culprit - rusting rebar!

When moisture becomes trapped near the concrete stem wall of your home, porous concrete may absorb that moisture.  Once said moisture makes it to the rebar, oxidization, corrosion and rust may occur.

Another area of concrete stem wall repair on a Phoenix area home!

Rusting rebar caused this Phoenix home's concrete stem wall to begin crumbling, cracking and flaking. 

This Phoenix, Arizona home had visible damage along the concrete stem wall, including spalling, cracks, and surface flaking—especially near the downspout area where moisture buildup is common. These signs of foundation wear are typical in the Valley, where extreme heat and clay-heavy soils can accelerate deterioration when moisture is introduced.

Our team removed the damaged section of concrete, installed new fiberglass rebar to prevent future rusting and corrosion, and then applied a heavy-duty patching compound to restore both strength and appearance. The finished result is a clean, structurally sound stem wall that’s ready to withstand Arizona’s challenging conditions. The repair not only protects the foundation from further damage but also boosts curb appeal and property value.

📝 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.
