What Causes Concrete to Sink in South Elgin?
Located near the Fox River, South Elgin’s mix of moisture, clay-rich soils, and seasonal weather patterns can lead to concrete settlement. Common causes include:
- Water erosion from rain, gutter runoff, or poor drainage
- Expanding and contracting clay soils
- Frost heave during freeze-thaw cycles
- Inadequate soil compaction at the time of construction
- Decomposing organic material like old tree roots or buried debris
These factors create empty spaces under your concrete slabs, causing them to crack, shift, and sink over time.
