New build garage retaining wall wet

[23vc]

- and structural design as a retaining wall for that depth of earth needs looking at as well.

Presumably that extra skin shown in the external pics is their attempt to address that

Hi all thanks for all your help I have some photos of the garage been built you can't see all of it but best I have

If I’m looking at that pic right, that appears to show that the ground level was higher at rear of the garage at the time it was built, and that there’s some kind of vertical dpm lapped up the outer face (black, behind the blue crates) which then stops as the ground steps down. Where is the water getting in, in relation to where we can see that dpm in the latest pics?

My guess is the vertical dpm isn’t continuous/lapped with the horizontal at that point. Possibly damaged/torn if the slab settled? No access to it now either since they’ve built that 3rd outer skin
