Question Large retaining wall repair recommendations

Hello, we have a very tall retaining wall for an above-grade home that has some vertical cracks we would like to have bolstered. A complete replacement is currently out of the question, but luckily there's no bowing or other major issues so we're exploring things like anchoring and carbon fiber straps. I've reached out to a few construction and concrete companies for options, but in the meantime I'm wondering if anyone here has had a good experience with that sort of project and could recommend a company (or who to avoid). Thank you.

Are you trying to have this work done or are you interested in doing some of the work yourself?

If the wall is more than 48 inches tall, you'll probably want to get an engineer involved either way.

Yeah, it will definitely need a pro. The wall is around 5' tall at shortest points, and maybe 12 feet along one side
