Concrete doesn’t usually sink because the slab failed. It often sinks because the soil underneath shifts or erodes over time.

Common causes include:
• Heavy rain and water erosion
• Poor compaction during installation
• Freeze/thaw cycles
• Expanding and contracting soil
• Downspout and drainage issues
