The foundation of this home was in trouble. It had cracked so badly that pieces of it fell off. This was partly due to the oxidization of the rebar within it. Moisture can find it's way to the rebar either during the installation of the rebar or even possibly through some very tiny holes or cracks in the foundation itself.
To fix this problem, we removed the oxidized rebar, replaced it with new #4 Fiberglass Rebar with a development length of 12 inches on both sides (Development Length = the length of the new Fiberglass Rebar that will be doweled into the existing foundation that doesn't need to be removed for the project). Then we sealed the area with brand new concrete.
