That's what got him into this position in the first place.

Actually the opposite is true.

The local builders said it was too high for a retaining wall, but one construction coy in Loei said they knew better and, because the designer and the project supervisor were both fully qualified civil engineers, I believed them.

Big mistake!

Live and learn, mate.
Never trust anyone here - except perhaps the good missus.

Trust your gut and instincts first.

Best of luck to continued projects.
