DBS Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Duluth, MN reached out to DBS when they observed ice dams forming on their roof, causing them to worry about their home's well-being. They wanted to prevent damage and find a permanent solution for their home. Our Design Specialist went out to the property to do a free, no-obligation estimate to determine the best solution for the homeowner. After the inspection, our Design Specialist recommended our Spray Foam and cellulose insulation solution. 

Our Foreman, Nicholas Wood led the installation of this project with help from a team. The crew began by removing the old insulation and debris. Then they began the insulation process with the first layer of Spray Foam insulation since it also acts as an air sealant and a moisture barrier. Cellulose insulation is then blown into the space to help create a lasting and effective solution. Now this homeowner can relax in their healthy home!

A Duluth homeowner had been dealing with severe and recurring ice dams each winter, prompting them to contact DBS for a permanent way to minimize these issues. The attic exhibited little to no insulation levels, hence the ice dams, and was completely inefficient and uncomfortable. Overseeing his crew in the insulation installation was Nick Woods, one of our foremen. The team started by strategically placing baffles to establish a continuous airflow and uphold proper venting. Then, a combination of closed-cell polyurethane and TruSoft cellulose blown-in foam was applied to the attic floor. To enhance energy efficiency, a layer of SilverGlo was incorporated along the attic deck, and the chimney was effectively wrapped. The process was finished by air-sealing and insulating the attic access point. With these insulation measures, along with the additional work undertaken, the homeowner can ensure that the home's ice dam issues will be significantly diminished.

An Duluth, MN homeowner was sick of anticipating water and mold in their basement each year, so she contacted DBS to find a permanent solution! One of our design specialists visited the house to provide a free, no-obligation, estimate. They ultimately concluded that adding a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system and a CleanSpace wall poly system was the best course of action.

One of our foremen led his group in this installation. The team started by removing concrete spots from the house's interior perimeter. Then, to permanently address flooding, they installed our sub-floor drainage system. After that, the team installed our CleanSpace wall barrier to keep water vapor from entering through the foundation walls. This led to the homeowner feeling confident their basement will be dry moving forward!
