I have a retaining wall that I have to fix. There is a huge crack in the wall starting 2″ wide at the top down to nothing about 3/4 of the way down. Fixed the wall form moving so now I want to fill the crack with with grout and then sack the wall. Problem is the wall is being eaten by alkali causing the original sacking to come off. Anything I can seal the wall with and then sack over it. It is only cosmetic and I know it is probably a waste of time but the homeowner is always right.
