A retaining wall typically has one job: to hold back soil. The soil behind a retaining wall exerts a large amount of lateral pressure, which can lead to wall failure and collapse. The signs of a failing retaining wall are usually fairly obvious, and can include:

- Crumbling and collapse
- Tilting
- Separation from adjoining walls
- Rotting wood
