This customer reached out to DBS after noticing cracks in their basement walls and on the outside of the house. With the intention of potentially renting out or selling their property, they wanted to make sure their basement was safe and wasn't going to cause any further issues in the future.
When our Design Specialist, Nicholas Corbin, went out to the property, he inspected the cracks and was able to relate them to a foundation issue. The foundation was settling and the house needed to be supported through the installation of interior piers and lifts.
Once our production crew was able to get out to the residents property, they were able to install our 3" Push Piers that have a low profile bracket underneath the foundation and lift it back into place. Once the products were installed, the homeowner was happy with the results and could be more comfortable renovating the basement for the future of the house.
Faced with the challenge of wanting to sell her home for the best value, a Minneapolis homeowner reached out to us at DBS for a comprehensive insulation upgrade. Our expert team removed outdated insulation and, as you can see in the before photo, the neglected spaces in need of care. In the after photo, notice the radiant installation of our SilverGlo insulation, ensuring every corner from the attic to the basement was sealed and energy-efficient. This meticulous work not only enhanced the comfort of the home but significantly increased its market value. Our commitment to providing both the knowledge our client appreciated and a lasting solution shines through in this successful project.
This Minneapolis homeowner wanted her basement to be a desirable place to spend time. After a little bit of research for a reputable company, this homeowner reached out to DBS Residential Solutions. The office staff helped set up an appointment for System Design Specialists, Royce Bunn to make a trip out to the home for a free no obligation estimate. On the day of the inspection, Royce was able to give the homeowner an estimate of the best possible solution to fix the problem. Following a brief phone call back to the office, a date was set up to have the production crew with Foreman, Casey Healy complete the installation. The basement was cleaned out, waterproofed, and power braces along with a sump pump system were installed. This homeowner now enjoys a clean and dry basement.
Homeowners in North Minneapolis, MN connected with DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate when their basement walls began to fail. The damage in the before photo is the result of soil expanding and adding pressure, which in turn caused the wall to crack and buckle.
Design Specialist Royce Bunn recommended our GeoLock® Wall Anchor System. GeoLock® Wall Anchors stabilize foundation walls by connecting two steel plates together with a galvanized steel rod. Based on the severity of the wall movement, excavation was recommended, allowing the wall to be immediately straightened. A DBS Foreman and their production crew installed the products and stabilized the basement.
These homeowners now have a safe, secure and comfortable basement to enjoy!
