A homeowner from Detroit Lakes, MN reached out to DBS looking for help with their drafty home. Their main concern was there crawlspace insulation and waterproofing. One of our Design Specialists went to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner.
After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist provided the homeowner with a free no-obligation estimate for our Crawl Space Encapsulation Service. One of our crews installed our crawl space products in the crawl space to thoroughly insulate and waterproof the space. Now the homeowner can relax with peace of mind!
Before reaching out to us, this homeowner in Detroit Lakes was worried about falling insulation in their crawl space, concerned it could lead to frozen pipes and increased energy costs. The "before" photo clearly shows this troubling situation. After contacting us, we addressed their concerns with our SilverGlo™ insulation solution, as seen in the "after" photo. This is more than just a temporary fix—it's a long-term investment that ensures their crawl space stays dry and properly regulated, protecting their home for years. Our commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience is evident in practical solutions like this one.
A homeowner in Paynesville, MN was experiencing issues with the crawl space of their home. The area was comprised of wood posts and cinder blocks to help support it, and over time, it began to settle and caused the floor above to sag. The owner was curious as to what DBS could offer for a solution, so we had a Design Specialist visit and give a free, no-obligation estimate for the crawl space repair. Our crew was able to install the SmartJack® System to help stabilize the sagging floor, and even work to push it back to the original positioning. The results of the project can be viewed here.
Owners of this 1950's cabin in Paynesville, MN were experiencing issues with the foundation and crawl space. There was some considerable cracking in the foundation that was causing the structure to settle. After seeing our website, they decided to contact us in search of a permanent solution to the problem.
A Dr. Energy Saver Design Specialist provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the foundation work and also provided a proposal for crawl space encapsulation. The cabin owners decided to go forward with both projects. The crawl space first had drainage matting laid on the dirt floors of the space. From there, DBS Foreman Zach Royer and his production team installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier to protect the space from moisture. Spray Foam insulation was also added to completely seal the space from outside air and moisture.
This crawl space is now completely sealed, regulating temperature, and moisture levels for the entire home.
This cabin owner in Litchfield, MN reached out to DBS after noticing that their cabin was settling on one side. They were concerned about their cabin collapsing towards the lake and wanted to fix this issue before it got worse. Our Design Specialist, Jason Swanson, made the trip out to the property and provided the cabin owner with a free, no-obligation estimate to find the best solution for this problem. After the inspection, Jason suggested installing 8 of our SmartJacks® along with 2 beams in order to stabilize the cabin.
Foreman Jordan Salmi lead the installation of this project with the help of a team. Once the SmartJack® solution and beams were installed and the cabin owner was able to review the work, they were happy with the results our DBS team provided them in making their cabin a healthy, safe and comfortable place to stay!
