Retaining Walls

In this one-hour webinar, home inspectors will learn to identify common retaining wall types, understand how drainage, soil pressure, and nearby loads affect their performance, and recognize warning signs such as leaning, bulging, cracking, decay, and erosion. Attendees will learn a practical approach to inspecting visible, accessible wall components, documenting defects, and communicating potential safety concerns. The webinar will also address inspection limitations and when to recommend further evaluation by a qualified professional.
