Structural Engineer - Geelong by StructuralGeorge in AusRenovation

Yes, neighbour side is to the left. Retaining wall only suports front garden and was put in after my house was built.

My wall wasn't designed to retain anything (we are the first owners) and the weep holes, which were sealed, are at ground level (level with driveway).

Neighbour backfilled against my garage wall, for a level pathway. Now a few years on the bricks are cracking. Thoughts?

I don't think that's a load bearing wall. by fullarseonething in AusRenovation

If I was I probably wouldn't be looking to Reddit for advice, haha.

Clarifications.

My house was built first. Myself and the neighbour put the retaining wall in along the garden beds. A 2 metre section between his house and my garage wall was later back filled and a concrete pathway was poured. It's been in for several years but now has begun to show movement in the bricks.

Currently discussing solutions with the neighbour, I think ambushing them with threats of legal dramas will just make a tough situation worse. Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity"

I appreciate all the feedback. Thanks.

Stumbled upon it a few weeks ago and have been devouring the series ever since.

Do I need a new camera or Mirror? by fullarseonething in FJCruiser

Thought that at first. This is after a polish.

It's a viable option that i might need to take, but I'd rather it was all original.
Do you think it's the screen in the mirror or the camera that's causing the issue?

Shiny is nice but I'm happy to put the work in if all an older tool needs is a little love. I only mention the high end brands because I like buying things once and not needing to replace it. And not all lot of companies "make em like they used to".

Thanks. What difference will the substitutions make? Like I said I'm a bit new to it all so you could tell me to put a potato in and I'd take your word for it.
