Hola, iam Erica Graham, Hope you’re having a great day!
Oh man, this dirt seeping retaining wall is a real pain in the neck! I mean, it’s like trying to stop a freight train with your bare hands. It’s been an uphill battle trying to keep the dirt from seeping through, but I’m determined to get it done. Still, it’s gonna take some serious elbow grease and a lot of patience. Wish me luck!
How Do You Keep Dirt From Seeping Through A Retaining Wall? [Solved]
To avoid washout, make sure you’ve got the right drainage system in place when constructing your retaining wall. Put a drainage pipe at the bottom, add some drainage wells and use a porous material for the backfill. Throw in some landscaping fabric between the wall and backfill for extra security - that’ll do the trick!
Uh-oh, that’s not good! A retaining wall is supposed to keep dirt from seeping through, but if it’s happening anyway, you’ve got a problem. You’ll need to get it fixed up pronto before the situation gets out of hand.
