This Glendale home had a large interior slab crack.

We cut stitches into your cracked foundation's concrete, drop carbon fiber laminates into the cuts and adhere with low viscosity polyurea. This system is stronger, faster and more cost-effective than the more traditional embedment of rebar dowels into the concrete. Crack Stitching is a reliable way to repair concrete & foundation cracks running along your floor.

This family down in Glendale, Arizona, was very worried about the longevity of their concrete, especially because of the many oil stains on it. They were looking for something to protect it from the arid summers in AZ. Additionally, the family wanted a fresh new look for their concrete without compromising the integrity of their concrete.

Foreman Anthony assessed the situation, noting the mismatched and stained concrete surfaces that dotted the property. The driveway showed signs of wear and tear, with unsightly stains marring their appearance. Anthony understood the importance of addressing these issues not only for aesthetics but also for the durability of the concrete against the harsh Arizona climate.

After Project Description:

With Foreman Anthony at the helm, the concrete sealing project in Glendale, Arizona, was a resounding success. Anthony and his team utilized DecoShield™ Concrete Sealer to rejuvenate the family's concrete surfaces, providing both protection and visual enhancement.

The process began with meticulous surface preparation, using a special etching liquid to ensure maximum adhesion of the sealer. Next, the concrete was power washed to remove any dirt, grime, and oil stains, leaving behind a clean canvas. Once dry, the team applied the tinted DecoShield concrete sealer in multiple coats, allowing each layer to cure before proceeding to the next.

The result was striking. The once dull and damaged concrete surfaces now boasted a translucent tint that not only enhanced their appearance but also provided robust protection against chemicals, moisture, and UV rays. The family's worries about the longevity of their concrete were alleviated, knowing that their surfaces were now fortified against the harsh elements of an Arizona summer.

Thanks to DecoShield's wide array of concrete stain colors, the family was able to achieve the fresh new look they desired without compromising the integrity of their concrete. The mismatched and stained concrete floors were transformed into a cohesive and visually appealing feature of their home, boosting curb appeal and leaving a lasting impression on visitors.

In conclusion, Foreman Anthony and his team demonstrated their expertise and dedication to delivering exceptional results, leaving the family in Glendale, Arizona, delighted with their beautifully sealed concrete surfaces. With DecoShield Concrete Sealer, they can now enjoy their outdoor spaces with confidence, knowing that they are both protected and aesthetically pleasing.

In Glendale, Arizona, a homeowner faced significant issues with their pool deck. The concrete slabs had settled unevenly, creating dangerous tripping hazards around the pool area. Cracks had formed in the concrete, allowing moisture to seep beneath and further destabilize the soil, causing additional damage. The homeowner contacted Arizona Foundation Solutions for a comprehensive repair solution. Gamalier, the project foreman, oversaw the entire process, while Amanda, the customer care representative, ensured smooth scheduling and communication. Greg, the design specialist, evaluated the situation and recommended the use of PolyLevel® and NexusPro for the repair.

After the evaluation, the team from Arizona Foundation Solutions got to work. Greg, the design specialist, recommended PolyLevel® for lifting and leveling the settled slabs and NexusPro for sealing the cracks. The process began with the injection of PolyLevel® foam beneath the sunken slabs. This foam expanded to fill the voids and lift the concrete back to its original level, stabilizing the soil beneath. The quick-curing properties of PolyLevel® allowed the homeowner to use their pool deck within just 30 minutes of completion.

Next, the team addressed the cracks in the concrete using NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant was expertly applied to the prepared cracks and control joints. The NexusPro sealant, resistant to UV rays and extreme temperatures, ensured long-lasting protection against further damage. Within 60 minutes, the sealant had cured, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish.

Thanks to the efforts of Gamalier, Amanda, and Greg, the homeowner in Glendale now enjoys a safe, level pool deck free from tripping hazards and unsightly cracks. The innovative use of PolyLevel® and NexusPro not only restored the concrete surfaces but also provided a long-term solution to prevent future problems.

A single-family residence built in 1973 down in Glendale was facing some concrete crack problems. The Homeowners were remodeling so decided to repair the floor since they were investing in the house, so, they decided to fix the concrete crack. The Homeowner called Arizona Foundation Solutions to go and visit the owners to see the problem. The concrete repair experts concluded that the best solution for the problem would be to do some concrete crack stitches.

In Glendale, Arizona, a homeowner noticed troubling horizontal cracks forming on the exterior foundation walls of their house. These cracks, though initially small, began to expand over time, signaling potential structural issues. Recognizing the urgency of the problem, the homeowner contacted Arizona Foundation Solutions for a comprehensive evaluation and repair plan.

Ted, our experienced Design Specialist, conducted a thorough inspection of the property. He identified that the cracks were due to oxidizing rebar within the concrete stem walls. If left unaddressed, the stem walls would continue to deteriorate, compromising the integrity of the foundation. Ted explained to the homeowner that traditional repair methods like patching, epoxy injection, and standard rebar replacement would not provide a long-term solution, as these methods are prone to recurring oxidation issues.

Felix, our skilled Foreman, led the repair project using Arizona Foundation Solutions’ innovative Heavy Concrete Stem Wall Patch system. This advanced system offers a cost-effective and reliable solution, specifically designed to prevent future oxidation and ensure long-term stability. Desirae, our attentive Customer Care Representative, ensured smooth communication and scheduling throughout the process, making the experience seamless for the homeowner.

Why Most Concrete Stem Wall Repairs Fail:

Foundation wall cracks generally stem from the porous nature of concrete, which allows moisture to build up and oxidize the rebar inside. This oxidation causes expansion and cracking that worsen over time. Traditional repair methods, such as patching, epoxy injection, and standard rebar replacement, often fail because they do not address the root cause of the problem – moisture and oxidation. Even advanced methods like electrical cathodic protection systems, though effective, are prohibitively expensive and impractical for residential use.
