CAUSES OF SUNKEN STEPS
A common problem with concrete is that it can have areas where the surface sinks. This may be caused by many factors, but typically when water seeps into the ground and freezes during winter months, this causes a process called freezing and thawing which weakens the soil over time. The expansion of ice expands in size as it melts back into water, and this can cause the ground to sink.
It is also important that you do not pour concrete into a hole where there are roots present as they will break up the surface of the concrete which causes it to fall apart over time. You should replace any tree with large roots before pouring your new slab in order for it last longer.
Another common cause for sunken concrete is that the ground isn’t stable. This can happen from a build-up of clay or other dirt on top of the surface, which would also prevent water from seeping into it and causing freezing and thawing. The roots will eventually break up this buildup over time, but it does need to be dealt with.
The best way to combat this problem is by having a foundation built which can keep the ground around it stable and prevent any uneven sinking or damage from occurring on your new slab. A basement would also work for stabilizing the ground, but may not be an option depending on where you live (and zoning regulations).
