Problems Worth Documenting

Start with the visible change. The details that matter most are height, slope, drainage, cracks, and whether the concrete is still solid enough to lift.

  • A driveway panel has dropped or opened a gap near the garage.
  • A sidewalk edge is high enough to catch a foot, stroller, walker, or shovel.
  • A patio or walkway now drains toward the home.
  • Steps or porch slabs have pulled away from the entry.
  • The slab is uneven but not crumbling into loose pieces.
