WaterGuard® Installed in Damp Cotton, MN Basement

These Cotton, MN homeowners reached out to DBS after seeing our ad on local TV. They had been having issues with water pooling in their basement and wanted a permanent solution to the problem.

Design Specialist, Rich Johnsen provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. Foreman, Tyler Nancy, and his production team installed our WaterGuard® System along the perimeter of the basement which now leads any water to the sump pump.
