Before & After Photos

The before-photo shows concrete slabs that are in the beginning stages of settlement. If not take care of, the concrete with get worse over time which is not only an eyesore but a real-life safety hazard. To fix this pending disaster we used our PolyLevel solution to lift and stabilize the concrete slabs as you can see in the after-photo. 

Some concrete is cracked to badly save.

The Before picture is a concrete slab that Saber removed, along with the tree roots, that were causing the issue.

The After Picture is the newly poured, and finished concrete.

This stem wall repair project in Borrego Springs, California showcases the process of restoring a damaged concrete foundation wall. The “before” photo reveals significant surface deterioration and cracking along the base of the garage wall, which had been caused by years of moisture exposure and corrosion of the reinforcing steel.

Our team carefully removed the deteriorated concrete, cleaned and treated the exposed rebar to prevent future oxidation, and then applied a fresh layer of structural repair mortar to rebuild the wall’s strength and appearance. The “after” photo shows a smooth, reinforced finish ready for sealing and paint.

This repair helps protect the home’s foundation from further damage, ensuring long-term stability in Borrego Springs’ challenging desert climate, where temperature fluctuations and soil movement can cause concrete stress and cracking.

Our team at Saber Foundation Repair began by removing all crumbling concrete and cleaning the exposed rebar to halt rust progression. After applying a corrosion inhibitor, a high-strength repair mortar was carefully installed to rebuild the stem wall to its original structural integrity. The “after” photos display a smooth, solid finish ready for paint and long-term protection.

This repair not only restores the appearance of the home but also reinforces its foundation against future damage caused by Borrego Springs’ expanding and contracting desert soils.

This foundation repair project in Borrego Springs, California, highlights the process of repairing and reinforcing a severely deteriorated stem wall around a home’s exterior. The “before” photos show visible cracking, spalling, and flaking concrete caused by moisture intrusion and rebar corrosion—common problems in desert regions where heat and occasional rain accelerate deterioration.
