Concrete Repair Before & After Photos

Our expert stem wall repair crew replaced the existing rebar with our non-ferrous composite.

Cracking, flacking and spalling can be serious signs of stem wall problems. 

This Gilbert, Arizona Home had a failing stem wall.  There were cracks, flaking & spalling.  

Our composite Stem Wall Repair System was a great solution!

The homeowners of a single-family home in Gilbert, AZ reached out to Arizona Foundation Solutions regarding some cracks in their floor. The owners needed to replace their tile floor and noticed that the cracks were very deep and wide. Arizona Foundation Solutions came up with the idea of solving the crack problem. By performing some concrete crack stitches, the issues were solved, and as you can tell on the before & after photos you can barely see the cracks now.

After thorough planning and evaluation, Juan and the Arizona Foundation Solutions team executed the repair using carbon fiber stitching. The process started with precise non-parallel cuts along the cracked areas of the foundation. Then, super high-strength carbon fiber laminates were installed into the cuts to bridge the cracks. Following the installation, low-viscosity polyurea was injected into and around the cracks to secure the carbon fiber and reinforce the structure.

The final step involved smoothing and grinding the repaired area for a polished finish. The entire process was quick, minimally disruptive, and more cost-effective than traditional methods, ensuring the foundation was stronger than before.

The Solution:

Step 1: Non-parallel cuts made along the foundation cracks.

Step 2: Installation of super-strength carbon fiber laminates into the cuts.

Step 3: Filling cracks with low-viscosity polyurea for reinforcement.

Step 4: Grinding the area smooth for a clean, finished look.

Results:

The foundation cracks were completely repaired with high-strength carbon fiber stitching, ensuring the structural integrity of the home. The homeowners were pleased with the quick, efficient process and the professionalism of the team, especially Juan’s oversight and Eli’s expertise in selecting the appropriate repair solution. Thanks to Amanda’s smooth scheduling process, the repairs were completed on time, leaving the homeowners with peace of mind.
