Hi all, I have a house in northern AZ that is on a slope, and a wooden deck that is supported by steel posts that are anchored in the ground with concrete. One of the posts on the downward sloping side has been eroding due to the tremendous rainfall we've received. I know I have to work on the drainage so it doesn't keep degrading, but I am concerned that the erosion might be compromising the foundation. I've attached some pictures. Should I try to reinforce the concrete myself in order to prevent further erosion and perhaps increase the stability of the footing? What other options are there to reinforce the support?
