DBS Before & After Photos

In Sebeka, MN, Caren had a sunken concrete slab near her entrance that created a trip hazard and directed water runoff toward her home. Concerned about further damage, she reached out to us for a solution.

After a thorough inspection, our System Design Specialist recommended using PolyLevel® to lift the slab and NexusPro® to seal cracks and joints. Our skilled team raised the slab, ensuring water would flow away from the home, and sealed the cracks for added protection.

The result was an immediate transformation. Caren’s entrance was restored, water was diverted away, and her home was better protected. With long-lasting solutions in place, Caren can now enjoy a safe, welcoming entryway. Our team cleaned up, leaving behind no trace of construction.

The owners of this cabin in Deer River, MN had recently purchased the property. They intended on doing major work on the structure before spending time there with kids and grandchildren as they were worried about the safety of the cabin. Looking for a solution, the owners reached out to DBS. 

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. Henrik advised the owners that the cabin was experiencing severe foundation issues along with energy efficiency issues. He quoted them for both foundation repair work and crawl space encapsulation and the owners hired DBS to do both sets of work.

Foreman Nick Woods II led the installation for the projects. With the help of a crew, they installed several SmartJack® supports, helical piers, and PowerBrace™  support systems to permanently stabilize the foundation of the cabin. Then, the crew moved on to the crawl space encapsulation portion of the project. They covered the ground with CleanSpace®,  a thick, white poly vapor barrier material to waterproof the crawl space. After installing the CleanSpace® material, the crew air-sealed the space with closed-cell polyurethane spray foam.

Now that the cabin has been permanently stabilized and the crawl space has been encapsulated, the owners will be able to go about remodeling so that they are able to spend time with their families in their new retreat.

These steps renewed the driveway's integrity, visually and structurally, providing a cost-effective, long-lasting solution without needing complete replacement.
