Flaking Pain In Stem Wall
Flaking paint is one of the first symptoms to appear when the stem wall is failing.
Horizontal Cracks In Stem Wall
Every symptom in a failing stem wall has a meaning. In this case, horizontal cracks mean that the corrosion problem started in the rebar and then it spread to the rest of the stem wall components.
Vertical Cracks In Stem Wall
On the other hand, vertical cracks in the stem wall mean that the oxidation problem started in the toe-down straps, and then it spread to the rest of the stem wall.

Stem Wall Elements Replacement
In most cases, all the stem wall elements need to get replaced, and right after getting installed, a blue material needs to get added to the stem wall to prevent any possible corrosion products in the future.
