Before & After Photos

In Rio Verde, Arizona, a homeowner noticed significant cracks forming inside their home on the concrete floor. These cracks were a result of foundation settlement and other structural stressors, leading to concerns about the overall stability of the house. The homeowner reached out to Arizona Foundation Solutions, where Alysia, the customer care representative, promptly scheduled an inspection to evaluate the damage.

Design Specialist Melissa visited the home and conducted a thorough evaluation of the cracks. After identifying that the cracks were structurally significant, she recommended the use of carbon fiber crack stitching—a state-of-the-art solution that would effectively repair the cracks and prevent further damage from occurring inside the home. Melissa explained that carbon fiber’s strength, combined with its flexibility, would provide an economical and minimally invasive repair.

Project Execution:

Foreman Juan was assigned to oversee the crack stitching project inside the home. The process was carried out with careful attention to minimizing disruption to the homeowner’s daily life. Juan’s team followed a precise four-step method to repair the cracked flooring:

Cut the Crack: The team cut non-parallel slits along the cracked areas in the floor to prepare for reinforcement.

Install Carbon Fiber: High-strength carbon fiber laminates were installed into the slits, creating a strong bond to bridge the cracks.

Fill with Polyurethane: The cracks and slits were then filled with low-viscosity polyurethane, ensuring that the carbon fiber was securely adhered to the concrete for optimal reinforcement.

Grind the Surface Smooth: To restore the floor’s original look, the team ground the repaired areas smooth, leaving a clean finish inside the home.

The carbon fiber stitching system was not only highly effective but also required much less equipment and time compared to traditional concrete repair methods. This ensured a quicker and more affordable solution for the homeowner, without compromising the strength and longevity of the repair.

After the Project:

Once the repair was completed, the interior cracks in the concrete floor were stabilized, and the risk of future damage to the foundation was significantly reduced. The final result was a smooth, structurally sound floor, leaving the interior of the home looking just as it had before the cracks appeared.

The homeowner expressed great satisfaction with the process and outcome, praising the team for their professionalism and the minimally invasive nature of the repair. Under Juan’s leadership, the project was completed efficiently, restoring the safety and appearance of the home’s interior without major disruption.

Thanks to Arizona Foundation Solutions’ expertise in carbon fiber stitching, the homeowner now has a secure foundation and peace of mind. Melissa’s detailed assessment and Juan’s skilled supervision ensured the success of the project, preventing further interior damage while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of the space.

This interior concrete slab in Rio Verde, AZ had a significant structural crack running across the floor, causing tile movement and creating the risk of further foundation damage. Our team exposed the slab, cleaned the fracture, and installed a professional crack-stitch repair to permanently stabilize the concrete. This method reinforces the slab from within, preventing future separation as Arizona’s soil expands and contracts.

After stitching and filling the crack, the surface was smoothed and prepped for new flooring. The repaired section is now stronger, more stable, and ready for long-term performance in the challenging desert environment. This repair helps the homeowner avoid expensive slab replacement and restores confidence in the home’s structural integrity.

Corrosion not only affects the metal in a stem wall, such as the rebar and the tie-down straps, but it also affects the concrete. Water causes the concrete to change its PH and become more acidic, making the metal in the stem wall eventually oxidize and decompose. After the Owners of this house, down in Munds park, noticed some cracks in their house's stem wall, they decided to take action and call us to put an end to their corrosion problem once and for all. Arizona Foundation Solutions is categorized as one of the best concrete lifting companies down in Tempe, Arizona, not just for stem wall repair!

This home had serious problems with the slab. Cracks were everywhere and needed attention fast. We used our concrete crack stitch procedure to repair he concrete and restore stability. 

A family in Casa Grande, Arizona, was increasingly concerned about the longevity and appearance of their concrete surfaces. With numerous oil stains marring their driveway and patio, they sought a solution that would not only protect their concrete from the harsh Arizona summers but also enhance its visual appeal. They wanted a fresh, new look for their concrete without compromising its integrity.

After contacting Arizona Foundation Solutions, Customer Care Representative Brianna swiftly booked an appointment for an evaluation. Design Specialist Curtis assessed the situation and recommended the DecoShield concrete staining solution. Foreman Gamalier was tasked with overseeing the project to ensure top-notch results.

Thanks to the expert team at Arizona Foundation Solutions, a family in Casa Grande, Arizona, now enjoys beautifully stained concrete surfaces that are both protected and visually appealing. Using DecoShield's advanced concrete staining process, the team successfully transformed the oil-stained and mismatched concrete floors into stunning, uniform slabs.

The 4-step process began with surface preparation using a special etching liquid, followed by a thorough power wash. After drying, the tinted concrete stain was applied in a series of coats, culminating in a final sealing coat. The result is a concrete surface that is resistant to pitting, flaking, and moisture-related damage, ensuring longevity and durability.

The translucent tinted DecoShield not only enhanced the appearance with a range of vibrant concrete stain colors but also protected the concrete from chemicals, moisture, and UV rays. The family's driveway and patio now boast a fresh, cohesive look that significantly boosts their home's curb appeal. With Gamalier overseeing the project, the implementation was seamless, and the results were outstanding, making their outdoor spaces ready for summer barbecues and pool parties.
