Cabin owners reached out to DBS for help stabilizing their cabin located in Saginaw, MN. The cabin has been in the family for generations and was in need of serious help to stay healthy for decades to come.
DBS Design Specialist Nathan Schroeder went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home, Nathan recommended stabilizing the sinking structure using Supportworks® push piers. Push piers are driven deep underground until they reach bedrock and are measured using hydraulic pressure. Once solid bedrock is reached the structure can be permanently stabilized and is guaranteed under a nationally-backed warranty! This stabilization system is completely hidden from sight once installed and is covered with dirt and can have grass or other landscaping options applied. This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Zach Royer and his production crew.
This cabin is now healthy, safe, and stable for many years to come!
We installed our basement waterproofing products for a homeowner in Saginaw, MN to ease their concerns about a wet basement. Now they can relax with peace of mind in a healthy, safe, and comfortable home! Check out the before and after pictures from this job.
These Saginaw, MN homeowners were experiencing multiple problems with their crawl space under their home. Insulation that was previously replaced by a different company was falling down and there were also critters getting into the duct work causing problems.
Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer assisted these homeowners in a free no-obligation estimate. After the inspection, Henry decided that reinsulating the crawl space more thoroughly and correctly this time would help solve the problems they were experiencing.
Foreman Nicholas Woods II, along with a team, led the installation of this project. They began by removing the previous insulation that was ineffective. Next, they used metal insulation tape to close the hole in the air duct that was allowing access to critters and unwanted air flow. Next, SilverGlo™ graphite-infused rigid foam was installed to prevent moisture and frost from reaching the foundation. Finally, the team used SprayFoam insulation over the top of the SilverGlo to increase the R-Value and air seal the space.
This crawl space now has an effective insulation system that will keep moisture and critters out, and warm air in.
The owner of this home in Saginaw, MN reached out to DBS for help with troubles they were having with water in their basement.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed WaterGuard french drain system® by jackhammering trenches in their basement and placing the drains into the crevices. The crew filled in the gaps with concrete for a flush finish. They also installed a new sump pump to help expel water up and away from the home.
Now that the basement has been thoroughly waterproofed, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.
