What is a Sinkhole?
Sinkholes often appear as small or large depressions in a yard and can form anywhere on a property—front yard, backyard, side yard, or even beneath homes, driveways, basements, or crawl spaces.
In Georgia, many sinkholes result from home builders burying trash or organic materials in pits during construction. While some sinkholes seem to form overnight, others develop gradually over several years. Regardless of how they form, timely sinkhole remediation is essential to prevent more extensive and potentially hazardous damage.

Understanding Georgia Sinkhole Laws
It’s a common myth that burying debris during or after construction is illegal. However, Georgia real estate laws were updated in 1991 to safeguard homeowners. These laws mandate the disclosure of buried debris during property sales. Homeowners aware of a sinkhole on their property must disclose this information when selling; failure to do so can result in legal liability for damages experienced by the new owner.
