The homeowner in Mesa, AZ, noticed cracking at the corner of the front of their house and is in the process of selling the property. Their realtor referred them to Arizona Foundation Solutions for an inspection to address these structural concerns. No gate code was required for the property.
Arizona Foundation Solutions was contacted to evaluate the issue. Our Design Specialist, Ted, conducted a thorough inspection, identifying horizontal cracks in the stem wall—a common issue in Arizona due to rusting rebar within the concrete. This deterioration, caused by chloride ion migration, had led to visible damage in the stem wall, compromising the integrity of the foundation.
The initial repair conducted by another contractor failed prematurely because it only addressed the surface cracks and not the root cause. The homeowner now seeks a permanent solution that will protect the property’s foundation long-term, ensuring a successful sale.
After Project Description:
After the comprehensive evaluation by Design Specialist Ted, Arizona Foundation Solutions completed the stem wall repair for the Mesa homeowner. The damage at the corner of the house, originally caused by rusting rebar, was repaired using industry-approved techniques to ensure long-term stability.
Foreman Bo and his crew followed a methodical approach to fix the issue, starting with the removal of damaged concrete to expose the rusted rebar. The rebar was sandblasted back to its original state, and an ion-blocking epoxy coating was applied to prevent further rusting. Finally, an anodic-based repair mortar was used to fill the cracks, ensuring a robust and lasting solution.
The repair not only restored the structural integrity of the home but also provided peace of mind to the homeowner, enabling them to move forward with the sale without further concerns about the foundation. The project was completed on time and within budget, with Customer Care Representative Aly ensuring that communication and scheduling were seamless throughout the process.

Project Title: Driveway Lift and Crack Repair with PolyLevel and NexusPro in Mesa, Arizona
Project Summary: The Arizona Foundation Solutions team, led by Foreman Anthony, successfully completed a driveway repair project in Mesa, Arizona. The homeowner initially contacted Customer Care Representative Nevaeh, who coordinated an on-site inspection with our Design Specialist [Assigned Specialist Name].
Problem Addressed: The concrete driveway had developed significant cracks and uneven surfaces due to soil compaction and erosion beneath the slab, causing it to sink. This not only created a tripping hazard but also compromised the driveway's appearance and structural integrity.
Solution Implemented: To address the sinking, we utilized the PolyLevel system, a high-density polyurethane foam that lifts and stabilizes the sunken concrete. First, small holes were drilled into the affected areas of the driveway, and the PolyLevel foam was injected beneath the slab. The foam expanded, lifting the slab back to its original position and providing long-term stability.
Following the slab lift, we repaired the cracks using NexusPro, a durable silicone-based sealant designed to withstand Arizona’s extreme temperatures and resist UV rays. The cracks were cleaned, smoothed, and filled with a non-absorbent backer rod before applying the NexusPro sealant. Finally, a thin layer of native sand was applied to give the driveway a clean, uniform appearance.
Outcome: The PolyLevel system effectively lifted and leveled the sunken driveway, eliminating the trip hazards and restoring its structural integrity. The NexusPro sealant provided a durable, weather-resistant repair for the cracks, ensuring the driveway remains protected from future damage. The homeowner was delighted with the results—a smooth, safe, and visually appealing driveway.
Advantages of PolyLevel and NexusPro:
PolyLevel: Quick, minimally invasive, and provides long-lasting stability
NexusPro: Durable, UV-resistant, and cures quickly (within 60 minutes)

Conclusion: This project showcases the effectiveness of combining PolyLevel and NexusPro for comprehensive concrete repair. The homeowner now enjoys a fully restored driveway that is both safe and aesthetically pleasing, with long-term protection against future issues.
