Oxidation issues not only can deteriorate metals but also concrete. This family, down in Payson, AZ, was facing some corrosion problems in all over the stem wall. The oxidation problem began when the concrete got overexposed to water, and its PH changed and became more caudad, making the whole stem wall get oxidated.

This family is in Queen Creek, AZ, and was struggling with stem wall failure in many areas of the house. The corrosion problem began with cracks, flaking paint, and even spalling concrete until the homeowners decided to do some research.

Corrosion is one of the worst threats to a concrete stem wall. Generally, corrosion destroys the stem wall from the inside out until everything is falling apart. The homeowners noticed there was a problem with the stem wall when they saw flaking paint, concrete cracks, and even spalling concrete in many areas of the stem wall. After doing some research, the homeowner decided to move forward with Arizona Foundation Solutions for a professional opinion, and a long-lasting solution.

In Arizona, homeowners often face the challenge of cracked concrete in critical areas like garages and driveways. Over time, the concrete slabs in these areas can break and sink due to the underlying soil compressing or washing away. These cracks not only diminish the aesthetic appeal of the property but also allow moisture to penetrate beneath the slab, leading to further soil instability and potential structural issues.

Traditional repair methods, such as applying urethane caulk, are temporary and often inadequate, as they are prone to cracking, bubbling, and drying out over time. This necessitates frequent reapplications, causing ongoing maintenance concerns for homeowners.

In this particular case, a homeowner in Arizona was dealing with significant cracking in both the garage and driveway. The cracked slabs were a source of concern due to the potential for further damage and the unsightly appearance they presented. The homeowner sought a durable, long-lasting solution to address these issues and restore the integrity of their concrete surfaces.

After Project Description:

The cracked concrete in the garage and driveway of this Arizona home was effectively repaired using the advanced NexusPro solution. The project was led by Felix, the foreman, with Nevaeh coordinating customer care and scheduling, and Eli, the design specialist, conducting a detailed assessment of the problem.

NexusPro, a cutting-edge silicone-based sealant, was selected for its exceptional flexibility and resistance to the harsh weather conditions typical in Arizona. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro’s UV resistance ensures it won't crack, bubble, or dry out over time, providing a more durable and long-lasting repair.

The repair process was efficiently executed, beginning with the careful preparation of the cracks in the garage and driveway. The cracks were drilled, smoothed, and filled with a non-absorbent backer rod. The NexusPro sealant was then applied, followed by a thin layer of native sand to blend the repair seamlessly with the surrounding concrete. In just 60 minutes, the NexusPro was fully cured, delivering immediate protection against further soil compaction and washout.

The homeowner was highly satisfied with the results, noting that the repaired concrete in both the garage and driveway not only looked significantly improved but was also protected against future cracking and sinking. Thanks to NexusPro, the homeowner now enjoys a restored and resilient concrete surface, ensuring the longevity and safety of these vital areas.
