After inspecting the property, Henrik diagnosed a solution to keep moisture out of this basement for good. Foreman Joe Harris and his production crew worked hard to install a CleanSpace® waterproof barrier around the perimeter of the basement. This barrier collects water and will drain into our WaterGuard® french drain system, which empties through a sump pump. This system will not need to be cleaned or emptied!
This basement is now dry and can be used for storage. Each of the products installed has a nationally-backed warranty that can be transferred to a new owner.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After completing a thorough inspection, Henrik advised the homeowner that DBS would be able to solve the issue by installing a waterproofing solution called WaterGuard® which is designed to capture water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall and floor joint and guide the water through a drainage pipe directly to your sump pump.
Foreman Jordan Jeseritz led his crew in the installation of this waterproofing project. Together they successfully installed the WaterGuard® drain system and an additional sump pump called SmartSump™ that is exclusive to DBS. The addition of the SmartSump™ will assist the old sump pump in draining water from the basement.
