Imagine settling into your new Gilbert, MN home, only to discover water issues from day one. Our latest project showcases this exact dilemma. Before tackling the problem, the basement was constantly challenged by water intrusion, making for a damp and unwelcoming space – as evident in the first photo. Stepping in, we implemented a full perimeter waterproofing solution, installing our TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, WaterGuard® drainage system, and SaniDry® Sedona to combat moisture. The transformation is remarkable, turning the basement into a dry, comfortable, and safe foundation for the home, clearly depicted in the after photo. Through our dedication, we've granted homeowners peace of mind and a lasting solution.

This 1980's family home in Poplar, WI was having water issues in their finished basement. After learning about our work on local radio, the owners contacted DBS in search of a permanent solution.
DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen is our expert in basement waterproofing and visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. After thoroughly inspecting the leaky basement, Rich designed a custom plan for a basement waterproofing system including our WaterGuard® french drain system and a new sump pump.
DBS Foreman Joe Harris and his crew installed our basement waterproofing products. First, they dug a trench around the perimeter of the basement and carried out the concrete. From there, they installed our WaterGuard® drainage system and surrounded it with gravel to encourage proper drainage. Once the drain system install was complete, they connected it to a SingleSafe™ sump pump and covered the drain with new concrete.
This homeowner now has a proven system for keeping water out of the basement.
