Is your slab actually settling, or is it the foundation moving? That distinction matters. Sinking slab repair addresses a concrete slab that's dropped away from an attached structure, not a foundation issue that needs a structural engineer.
Older interior-lot Mesquite homes see this most at slab edges, where clay soil pulls away from the foundation wall seasonally. Mesquite Concrete Lifting diagnoses the void before recommending anything, so you know which problem you actually have.

FAQs
Sinking Slab Repair FAQs
How do I know if it's the foundation or just the slab settling?
Foundation movement usually shows up as cracks in walls, door frames going out of square, or interior floor slopes. Slab settling stays localized to an exterior slab like a patio, driveway, or walkway. A site visit sorts out which one you're dealing with.
Does insurance ever cover concrete settling repair?
Coverage varies by policy and cause. Standard settling from clay soil movement is often excluded, but it's worth checking your specific policy since terms differ.
What causes a slab to pull away from the foundation?
Clay soil shrinks during dry spells and expands with moisture. That seasonal movement pulls an attached slab away from the foundation wall over repeated cycles.
Can a sinking slab be fixed permanently?
Filling the void and stabilizing the soil underneath gives a long-lasting result. Ongoing clay soil movement nearby can eventually call for a touch-up, but that's different from a failed repair.
