Helical wall anchor advantages:

Best for holding back solid concrete walls
Also used for:
- stabilizing masonry concrete walls
- stabilizing concrete retaining walls
Most jobs are completed in one or two days.

Wall anchor disadvantages:

Each anchor plate nut must be tightened monthly
Some excavation may be needed to install
The wall must be either drilled or a partial block section removed at each anchor location for installation
Future excavation if required for outside waterproofing must be done by hand appearance.
Most wall anchor locations will tend to create pressure points which can point load the wall and create punching shear around the anchor plates
