DBS Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Hager City, WI reached out to DBS looking for help with their damp basement. One of our Design Specialists ran a free no-obligation estimate appointment for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist provided the homeowner with a free quote for our Basement Waterproofing System. One of our crews installed our WaterGuard® french drain system in the basement to thoroughly waterproof the space.

A hotel in Aitkin, MN was experiencing stability issues with its block foundation walls, and DBS went out to provide some support. Our foreman and his crew were able to install a considerable amount of PowerBrace™ units around the area of the wall to maximize the strength of the foundation. These braces can also help to straighten out bowing walls over time, should they need it. 

These Aitkin, MN homeowners reached out to DBS when their floors began to sag.
DBS Design Specialist Royce Bunn provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the problem. DBS Foreman Kevin Steffey and his production crew installed Smartjack® stabilization beams and PowerBraces® along the floor joints to fix the sagging floor. CleanSpace® was installed in the crawlspace to keep the area dry and insulated.
This home now has safe and stable floors to enjoy year-round!

These Aitkin, MN homeowners had a basement that transitioned into a crawlspace. They noticed some structural issues with sagging floors and faulty support beams. In search of a permanent solution, they reached out to DBS.

DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the problem. DBS Foreman Kevin Steffey and his production crew installed 5 Smartjack® stabilization beams as well as a supplemental support beam to replace the beam as seen in the photo.

This Aitkin, MN cabin owner identified a low area in their crawlspace that was collecting water in the spring and after heavy rains. They noted temperature and humidity fluctuations as well and wanted the dirt floor crawl space sealed.

DBS Design Specialist and waterproofing expert Rich Johnsen visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. It was determined that both the crawl space would need to be totally encapuslated in order to keep moisture at bay and regular temperature and energy in the reast of the cabin.

A DBS foreman and crew installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier over drainage matting in the dirt crawl space. These two products work together to keep moisture and pests at bay. To further prevent moisture and the growth of mold, closed-cell spray foam was applied to fully seal and regulate temperature in the space. 

The space was topped off with an UltraSump™ sump pump that has a battery backup system, providing protection and peace of mind when you have a pump failure or power outage.

The homeowner was happy with the work done, resulting in a great improvement of this home's overall health.
