DBS Before & After Photos

The first-time homeowners of this property in Grand Rapids, MN were concerned for their children's safety noticing that their basement was having trouble staying dry. They also became aware of several areas of cracking throughout their walls and ceilings. While at a home show, they addressed their concerns with a DBS professional, and they advised them to set up a free no-obligation estimate.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to their property to conduct an inspection. A thorough estimate was done on the issue and Henrik advised the homeowners that DBS's foundational and waterproofing products would be a great fit for their home.

Co-Foreman Joe Harris led the installation of this project with his crew. Together they installed DBS's TripleSafe™ sump pump, WaterGuard® drain system in order to assist in waterproofing the basement, and also installed GeoLock™ Wall Anchors and SmartJack® System foundation repair solutions. 

The homeowners of this property have peace of mind knowing that their basement has been properly waterproofed, and their foundation will not fail. They can finally relax comfortably knowing that their children will grow up in a safe, healthy, and sturdy home.

The owners of this home in Cloquet, MN had issues with mold in their attic. They wanted a solution to properly air-seal their attic for energy efficiency so they reached out to DBS.

Design Specialist Austin Burley conducted a free no-obligation estimate for the owners. After a thorough inspection, Austin recommended that the owners consider installing insulation products offered by DBS to promote a healthier space.

Foreman Nick Woods II led the installation of this project with help from a team. Together they stripped the attic of the old fiber-glass batting insulation that had crumbled from water damage over the years. After removing all of the old insulation, they sealed all of the air leaks in the attic with a waterproof polyurethane spray foam. Then 17 inches of Tru-Soft™ cellulose insulation was blown into the attic. Cellulose insulation is a more energy-efficient alternative to fiber-glass insulation. It is made from recycled material treated with a borate solution to repel pests and acts as a fire-retardant.

Now that the home has been properly insulated, the owners will experience a warmer climate in their living spaces. Proper insulation helps retain heat in the right areas of your home and will decrease energy bills without having to replace any doors or windows!
