Retaining Wall Stabilisation in Leicester
Specialist
Bespoke Solutions From A Team Of Specialists
Retaining walls play a crucial role in holding back soil, supporting changes in ground level, and preventing erosion. When these walls begin to lean, crack or fail, it can put nearby structures, pathways or driveways at serious risk. Whether the problem is due to poor drainage, old construction, or ground movement, we offer expert solutions that restore the safety and strength of the wall. In a city like Leicester, with its mix of hilly terrain, clay-heavy soils and older buildings, these issues are more common than many people realise. Our team works across a range of properties, from Victorian boundary walls to modern retaining structures in new developments. We provide professional assessments and tailored stabilisation techniques that suit both the structure and the surrounding environment. If your retaining wall in Leicester is showing signs of stress, ASRS Ltd is ready to step in with long-term solutions you can trust.
Signs a Retaining Wall Needs Stabilisation
Retaining wall problems often develop gradually, and spotting them early is key to avoiding bigger structural issues down the line. In Leicester, we often get called out to properties where walls are leaning forwards, bulging outward or developing diagonal and stepped cracks. These are strong indicators that the wall is no longer able to support the pressure from the retained earth behind it. In some cases, gaps can appear between the wall and the soil it’s supposed to be holding back, or water may be seeping through due to poor drainage. All of these signs point to instability, which if left unresolved, can lead to partial or full collapse. Leicester’s varied soil types — particularly shrink-swell clays — often contribute to retaining wall movement, especially during dry spells or after heavy rain. At ASRS Ltd, we understand the importance of acting quickly. We carry out thorough inspections and offer expert advice, giving you a clear understanding of what’s happening and how best to stabilise the structure.

Our Retaining Wall Stabilisation Services in Leicester
ASRS Ltd provides a full range of retaining wall stabilisation services throughout Leicester, tailored to suit each wall’s construction type, location and severity of movement. We work with both gravity walls and reinforced retaining systems, using techniques that minimise disruption while delivering maximum structural integrity. One of the most common methods we use is the installation of ground anchors or soil nails, which help to restrain the wall and redistribute the lateral forces behind it. In other cases, we may rebuild or reinforce the wall face using high-strength concrete or masonry support, depending on its condition. Drainage is another key factor, and we often install weep holes or subsoil drainage systems to relieve hydrostatic pressure and prevent future problems. Every project begins with a detailed assessment to identify the root cause of the instability, whether it’s poor construction, ground movement, or inadequate design. Whatever the issue, our Leicester-based team will implement a cost-effective, long-term solution that restores both strength and peace of mind.
