Leaning
Whether it's caused by tree roots, poor drainage, or a failed footing, a leaning wall will probably have to be demolished and rebuilt from scratch.
Sagging
A pronounced dip in the courses of a timber or interlocking block wall indicates that the footing has failed in one spot.
Cracking
You can fill minor blemishes in poured concrete with hydraulic cement. In a mortared wall, simply chisel out damaged joint filler and repoint. But if the cracks are more than ¼-inch wide and deep, and more than 3 feet long, the wall may have structural damage.
Bulging
When mortared masonry develops a pot belly, the likely culprit is a buildup of water pressure behind it. A bulge in a timber or interlocking block wall is typically caused by a lack of anchoring. Try drilling a ½-inch weep hole with a masonry bit to encourage drainage. Careful excavation behind the wall may allow a protruding section to be rebuilt.
