Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Cave Creek, Arizona, contacted Arizona Foundation Solutions after discovering large cracks forming in their back patio. The cracks were a result of the underlying soil shifting and washing away, leaving the concrete unsupported. Over time, these cracks not only became unsightly but also posed a risk of moisture seeping beneath the slab, leading to further soil erosion and instability in the concrete.

After speaking with Amanda, our Customer Care Representative, the homeowner scheduled an on-site inspection. Design Specialist Brandon visited the property and assessed the back patio. He confirmed that the cracks were allowing water to infiltrate the soil underneath, potentially worsening the erosion and causing more significant damage. To resolve the issue, Brandon recommended the installation of our NexusPro solution, a silicone-based sealant that offers long-term durability and protection against Arizona’s harsh weather conditions.

After: NexusPro Solution Installation for the Back Patio

Following Brandon’s assessment, the repair project was overseen by Foreman Anthony and his expert crew. They began by preparing the back patio for the NexusPro application. The cracks were cleaned, smoothed, and filled with a non-absorbent backer rod to ensure a consistent seal.

Next, the team applied the NexusPro sealant to the cracks and control joints. This advanced sealant is specifically designed to handle extreme temperatures and UV exposure, ensuring that the patio’s cracks would remain sealed and protected for years to come. Anthony’s crew finished by applying a thin layer of native sand over the sealed cracks to create a smooth, uniform appearance that blended with the rest of the patio.

Thanks to NexusPro's fast cure time (just 60 minutes), the back patio was restored quickly, minimizing inconvenience for the homeowner. This long-lasting solution will protect the patio from further cracking, moisture damage, and soil erosion, preserving its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

Key Advantages of the NexusPro Solution:

• UV Resistance: Ensures the sealant won’t dry, crack, or bubble in Arizona’s intense sun.
• Durability: Provides a flexible, long-lasting solution that withstands extreme temperature fluctuations.
• Fast Curing: Ready for use in just 60 minutes, offering quick results with minimal disruption.
• Professional Finish: Expertly installed by Anthony’s team, ensuring a seamless, polished look.

The homeowners in Maricopa, Arizona, were facing multiple issues with their concrete surfaces. Their driveway had become uneven, with sections that had settled due to soil compression, causing significant tripping hazards. The patio and walkways were also affected, with visible cracks and stains that detracted from the home’s overall appearance. These problems made outdoor activities less enjoyable and posed safety risks for the family and visitors.

The driveway slabs had sunk, making parking and driving difficult. The concrete surfaces showed signs of wear and tear, with discoloration and cracks that allowed moisture to seep in, leading to further soil erosion and potential structural issues. The homeowners reached out to Arizona Foundation Solutions to restore their concrete surfaces and enhance their curb appeal.

Victor, our Design Specialist, conducted a thorough evaluation of the concrete issues. He identified the areas where the soil had compressed, causing the concrete to settle and crack. Victor proposed a comprehensive solution using PolyLevel for lifting and leveling the concrete, NexusPro for sealing cracks, and DecoShield for enhancing and protecting the concrete surfaces.

Eduardo, the Foreman, led the project with precision. The team started with the PolyLevel injection to raise and stabilize the sunken concrete slabs. The PolyLevel foam, known for its light weight and strong lifting capabilities, was injected beneath the slabs, quickly expanding to fill the voids and lifting the concrete back to its original position. This process was completed efficiently, allowing the driveway to be used shortly after.

Next, the team addressed the cracks using NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant that offers long-lasting flexibility and resistance to extreme weather conditions. The cracks were meticulously prepared and filled with NexusPro, ensuring a durable seal that prevents further moisture infiltration and soil erosion.

Finally, DecoShield was applied to all concrete surfaces, including the driveway, patio, and walkways. This translucent, tinted sealer not only enhanced the appearance of the concrete but also provided a protective layer against chemicals, moisture, and UV damage. The DecoShield application resulted in a uniform, visually appealing finish that significantly boosted the home’s curb appeal.

The transformation was remarkable. The driveway, patio, and walkways were now level, crack-free, and aesthetically pleasing. The DecoShield sealer added a sophisticated touch, making the concrete surfaces look brand new. The homeowners were delighted with the quick and efficient service provided by Eduardo and his team. Thanks to Alysia’s excellent customer care, the entire process from booking to completion was smooth and hassle-free.

This concrete patio in Camp Verde, AZ was sinking and cracking due to unstable soil and years of wear. Our crew used PolyLevel® foam injection to lift and level the slab, restoring its original position without the need for demolition. We then sealed joints and cracks using NexusPro®, a long-lasting, UV-resistant sealant that protects against water infiltration. These before and after photos show the dramatic difference. If you're searching for concrete repair near me or concrete patio repair in Camp Verde, this is the kind of permanent solution you can expect from our expert team.

A quiet household in Camp Verde, AZ, found itself grappling with a silent crisis when the back patio began to settle unevenly. What started as a faint crack soon widened into a gaping fissure, lowering one side of the slab by several inches and making outdoor gatherings a safety hazard. Inside the home, subtle signs emerged: doors that scraped the jamb, slight tilts in the floors, and hairline fractures snaking along the walls. The family’s frustration mounted as everyday routines—parking in the garage, walking along the patio—became exercises in caution, and concerns over long-term damage loomed large.

The Search for a Solution

DIY patch-and-seal kits offered temporary relief but no guarantee against future settlement. Traditional mudjacking services touted low costs but carried risks of introducing even more weight to already compressed soils. Local handymen could fill cracks, yet none could promise a permanent fix or address the root cause: unstable, eroding soil beneath the concrete. Recognizing that foundation and slab problems demand specialized expertise, the homeowners knew it was time to look beyond patch-and-pray solutions.

Why Arizona Foundation Solutions?

A neighbor’s recommendation led the homeowners to Arizona Foundation Solutions (AZFS). The company’s reputation for thorough, transparent inspections and advanced repair methods immediately set it apart. During the free on-site evaluation, AZFS technicians explained how PolyLevel® Injection Foam could lift and level the 879 sq ft patio slab without the invasive bulk of mudjacking, and how NexusPro sealant would deliver long-lasting crack protection. This customer-first approach, backed by clear explanations and real-world before-and-after examples, provided the trust needed to proceed.

The Repair Process

1. Bluestake Compliance & Initial Locate
2. On July 1, 2025 (Bluestake ticket #1-800-638-7048), AZFS mobilized its crew to Camp Verde, completing the mandatory utility locate to mark underground lines.
3. PolyLevel® Injection Foam Application
4. Preparation: Small, discrete 5/8 in holes were drilled through the sunken slab panels.
5. Injection: PolyLevel®—a two-part geopolymer foam—was pumped beneath the slab. Expanding up to 15 times its initial volume, the foam filled voids and lifted the concrete to precise tolerances.
6. Curing: Within 15 minutes, the material supported full load, allowing the patio to be returned to service almost instantly.
7. NexusPro Joint & Crack Sealing (50 ft)
8. Existing control joints and the large crack were routed, cleaned, and fitted with backer rod.
9. NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant resistant to UV, extreme temperatures, and wash-out, was tooled into each gap.
10. A fine layer of native sand was applied for a seamless, uniform finish.
