The concrete pad of my porch has sunken and cracked over the years and I’m currently looking to replace it. My question is am I going to have to do a tear down and replacement of the porch roof? The pad has sunken a few inches and is tilted forward.

2Picture would help. It will depend on how the roof is supported and how good of condition the roof is in. With the pad sinking, quite a bit of base work will probably be needed.– crip659Commented May 6, 2023 at 13:36

1We have no understanding of how the roof relates to the concrete. Please revise to add a better description and/or photos. Good answers depend on details.– isherwoodCommented May 6, 2023 at 14:24

If the roof is attached to the house on one end, it can most likely be supported temporarily. Then the pad is re-poured with proper footings for the permanent supports.
This can be tricky and is best left to someone who has the experience and know-how to do the job safely and correct.
