The owners of this home in Minneapolis, MN were concerned with water in their basement underneath the garage. After discovering leaks from groundwater seepage, they decided to reach out to DBS.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went to the home in order to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowners. After a thorough inspection, Henrik recommended our waterproofing system to the homeowners.

Foreman Jason Foster led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed a WaterGuard® french drain system, CleanSpace®, and a new sump pump. The WaterGuard® system was installed by placing drains into trenches that were jackhammered around the interior perimeter of the basement. The drains collect water and dump it into the SuperSump® pump so water can be expelled out and away from the home. To finish the project, CleanSpace®, a thick white poly vapor barrier, was placed over the walls to seal the space. 

Now that the home has been properly waterproofed, the homeowners can relax peacefully in their happy, healthy home.
