What Causes Erosion?

Erosion is often a surface‑level issue in its early stages, but if left unmanaged it can develop into significant stability problems, including slope failure or rockfall. Early identification and intervention are therefore key to preventing escalation.

Erosion can affect rock, soil, and man‑made structures, such as masonry and stone retaining walls. It commonly results from factors including water action, chemical processes, and frost damage. Understanding the root cause, extent, and depth of erosion is essential in defining and implementing an effective, long‑lasting solution.
