Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Superior, WI were experiencing leaking and wetness in their basement. In hopes of a permanent solution to create a more livable and safe family space, the homeowners contacted DBS. 

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went to inspect the area and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for our waterproofing service. It was determined that the basement would have a WaterGuard® drain system along the perimeter of trouble walls, as well as a CleanSpace® wall protection system. The Foreman Zach Jorenby and crew installed these systems for maximum efficiency and protection against future wetness. 

The customer was happy with the result and now enjoys a safe and protected basement. 

These homeowners in Virginia, MN had been dealing with a wet basement for a long time. Concerned over its worsening condition and effects on the overall health of the rest of the home, they contacted DBS for a permanent solution. 

DBS Sales Manager Royce Bunn was the Design Specialist for this project and went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate. Royce measured several signs of significant water damage and came up with an extensive plan to solve the issues, both internally and externally.

DBS Production Manager Kevin Steffey was the project foreman. He and his crew first excavated soil around a portion of the exterior wall to perform a wall straightening procedure as well as install SilverGlo™ and SentrySeal® products to seal and protect that wall that was prone to water. This was supported internally with 2 CarbonArmor® Wall Defense straps to prevent the wall from futher movement.

Our crew also installed a full WaterGuard® french drainage system. This system sits flush with the floor and is completely hidden, directing all water to the home's existing sump pump and a new exterior drainage line.

This home is now healthy, safe, and comfortable!
