I am buying a house which has a 4' tall and 150' long timber retaining wall about 8' from the back of the house. The wall makes one short turn and spans two houses.
My question is... given that it is alreadly completed. How can I inspect the wall to ensure that it was built correctly. What specific things should I look for?
I am concerned because a collapse could directly impact the house, not to mention the additional cost of doing it again.
Thanks.
Tommy
