Structural / Geotechnical Engineer Required for Failing Retaining Wall
Publish date: 21/04/2022We have a 40 year old wooden retaining wall that is starting to fail. The wooden retaining wall is 20 metre long and up to three metres high. Most of the large round up to three metre high posts look ok apart from one or two posts that are on a lean (please see the first attached picture) This post may require an anchor. to be installed to reduce any further lean.ViewThe main issue appears to be that a number of the retaining boards in between the posts are starting to fail and dirt and water is seeping out between the large gaps and cracks (please see the last two attached pictures) This is a concern as our house and decks foundations are located on top of the retaining wall and are literally 1 metre back from the retaining wall. The house / deck foundations are now starting to lean and have massive cracks in the dirt where this ground is now escaping through the below retaining wall subsequently undermining the house / deck foundations. This is a major concern in case the whole retaining wall collapses. Bad drainage may also be to blame.
We require a structural or geotechnical engineer to inspect the wall and construct a plan going forward to resolve the issue and to then commence the repair work. Ideally we would like the initial consult to take place ASAP, with the repair work also to start as soon as possible

Hardwood floor repair
Publish date: 21/04/2022I am looking for someone who can help me repair the flooring in my 1950s house. I pulled up the carpets in the house with the aim of sanding and varnishing the hardwood, but there is some significant damage to the (apparently Rimu) floorboards that needs repairing before I can do that - and am looking for someone to help me with that process. Happy to post photos of the damage if needed.View -
waterproof concrete blocks on basement
Publish date: 20/04/2022I have a two bedroom unit and in the heavy rain water came into my basement storeroom. The insurance assessor said I needed to get a builder to come and dig around the corner of the building and waterproof the blocks from the outside. There is a water main to be very careful of; the watermain is new so I believe it is not the water main leaking. There may be some concrete repair necessary inside the storeroom.View -

Move floor vent ahead of new carpet install
Publish date: 19/04/2022Hi there, we had an underfloor heat / cooling system installed and require one of the floor vents moved, as it is obstructed by curtains, and have new carpet being installed shortly. The exiting hole will require plugging. I do not believe any more ducting is required as where it needs moving to is the same length (or less) from where it is currently placed. Thanks very much.View -
