Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Facing dampness, stubborn mold, and constant chill in their Tower, MN basement, one homeowner sought us out, prioritizing health & comfort for their family. Notice the before photo’s unwelcome damp and dingy setting - a common plight due to humidity. We swooped in, installing our foolproof DoubleSafe© Sump Pump, WaterGuard©, and IceGuard© systems. Now, their basement, as observed in the after photo, stands transformed: warm, dry, and inviting. Another home, another day’s mission accomplished at DBS, ensuring a healthier, sound living space.

Foreman Tyler Nacey and his production team installed our WaterGuard® System along the perimeter of the basement and a TripleSafe™ Sump Pump to keep water out of the basement for good.

As evidenced in the before photo, this basement had incurred water damage, causing them to remove the a good amount of damaged drywall.

DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the waterproofing system. A DBS Foreman and crew installed our WaterGuard® System along the perimeter of the basement, that will direct all moisture to a new TripleSafe™ Sump Pump. This pump system has a battery backup that provides several hours of additional protection against water damage if your primary pump fails for any reason, such as during a power outage.

DBS Production Manager Kevin Steffey was the foreman on this project, installing all of our basement repair products with his crew.
