These homeowners in Iron River, MN reached out to DBS for help keeping their leaky basement dry. When we arrived the basement had water damage, musty odors, and moisture in the air.
DBS Design Specialist, Rich Johnsen went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home and water damage Rich recommended installing our WaterGuard® subfloor french drainage system paired with a TripleSafe™ sump pump. This system will never need to be emptied by the homeowner and is installed with a nationally-backed warranty. WaterGuard® sits flush with the floor and can be completely hidden with tile, carpet, or wood flooring.
This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Joe Harris and his production crew. This home is now healthy, safe, and comfortable!
The owner of this structure noticed cracking in the walls of the foundation along with water leaking through the walls. They have recently been thinking about reselling the property, and in hopes of finding a solution to increase the resale value of her property, they contacted DBS solutions.
Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the owner. After completing a thorough inspection, Henrik suggested that this property would greatly benefit from DBS's PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System.
Foreman Osia Williams completed this project along with his team, and they successfully installed 2 PowerBrace™ I-beams that will correct bowing and prevent further cracking over time. DBS consulted with the owner upon completion of the first project to come back a second time in order to install waterproofing materials.
The owner of this property can now think clearly about potentially reselling the property now that they are assured the foundation is sound, sturdy, and stabilized.
This homeowner in Iron River, WI recently purchased this home and wanted to address the stability issues. Needing a permanent and professional solution, they trusted DBS to help.
Design Specialist James Miller visited the home in order to conduct a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, a quote was provided for our push pier support system.
A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with help from a team. They began by excavating the area around the foundation of the home. Next, they use hydraulic pressure to move the pier down through the ground until it reached native, stable soil. Once reached, the pressure pushes against the soil and lifts the structure back to its original position.
This homeowner can now relax in their new home knowing it is level and stable.
This homeowner in Iron River, WI reached out to DBS for concrete repair. Large cracks and gaps were becoming an inconvenience and needed to be filled.
Design Specialist James Miller assisted the homeowner in a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful inspection, a quote was provided for our PolyLevel® Foam and NexusPro® Sealant.
DBS Installers took the lead on this project. Together, the team began by drilling small holes into the concrete and injecting the foam. This foam expands and hardens to lift the concrete back into an even position. The sealant is then used to fill the remaining crack and even out the floor.

This homeowner in Iron River, WI wanted to address the cracks in their block foundation. These stairstep cracks are a sign of instability and needed to be addressed before they got any worse.
Design Specialist James Miller visited the home and conducted a free, no-obligation estimate to find the best solution for the home. After a careful inspection, it was decided that Geo-Lock™'s Wall Anchors would be the best solution.
A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project. The team began by excavating an area outside of the home to install the earth anchor. This anchor is attached to a steel plate that is installed inside of the home. Once connected, the system can be adjusted to pull the cracked wall back into its original position. This system will also continue to hold the wall in place.
This homeowner can now relax knowing their home is safe and secure.
