Retaining Walls

1. Leaning or Bulging

• Wall unstable due to ground pressure

2. Cracks & Movement

• Visible in brickwork, blocks, or stone

3. Loose or Displaced Materials

• Sections showing displacement

4. Poor Drainage Behind Wall

• Causing pressure build-up

5. Deteriorated Mortar

• Mortar joints deteriorated or missing

6. Foundation Failure

• Base showing signs of settlement

minor Repairs
