Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Facing a damp dilemma in Duluth, MN, this homeowner needed a dry, usable basement, looking to us at DBS for help. In the "before" photo, the problem is clear: water intrusion corroding their comfortable space. Entrusting our expertise, we delivered by installing our robust WaterGuard® perimeter drainage system, alongside the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, and the extra peace-of-mind UltraSump™ Battery Backup System. As showcased in the "after" photo, the transformation is beyond satisfying, offering them a dry, reliably safeguarded basement they can enjoy worry-free.

A homeowner in Duluth, MN was having ongoing issues with water making its way into their basement area, and it was concerning for several reasons. Mold growth and water damage are common occurrences as a result of basement flooding. In need of a solution, the owner reached out to DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate. After a visit from our Design Specialist, it was determined that the basement would need to have a full waterproofing system put in place. This consisted of CleanSpace®, WaterGuard®, and a TripleSafe™ sump pump, all which can be seen in the photo.

In Duluth, MN, we took on a special project, transforming a basement in an historic building—from its previous life as a school (1892-1982) to a secure, watertight foundation for new apartments. Initially, the basement mirrored its age, showing signs of wear and posing structural concerns. But as you can see in the after photo, our comprehensive solution revitalized it. Our crew installed WaterGuard® and IceGuard® for unparalleled waterproofing, the SaniDry™ Sedona for dehumidification, and a SingleSafe™ Sump Pump system ensuring the space remains dry and healthy for years to come. We wrapped the interior foundation walls in our CleanSpace® liner, dramatically improving the basement's appearance and sealing out moisture. This project not only safeguarded the building's structural integrity but also restored its potential for creative, functional spaces—showcasing our dedication to delivering reliable and lasting solutions while enhancing our customers' living environments.

This homeowner reached out to DBS after experiencing water entering the basement of their restaurant.

To address the water problem, our Design Specialist recommended replacing the current sump pump and basin with a double safe sump pump system, tied in with a water guard.  The expectation is for the basement to be dry and clean upon completion of the project.

Once our crew was able to come in, they quickly installed the new sump pump system and the owners were happy with the results!

We understand the frustration of dealing with a wet basement, and this Duluth homeowner knows that all too well. Water intrusion had turned everyday life into an ongoing struggle. But that’s where we came in! As shown in the "before" photo, the issue was clear and concerning. However, the "after" photo reveals the remarkable transformation. With our advanced waterproofing solution, including products like WaterGuard®, DoubleSafe™ Sump Pump, and CleanSpace® , we effectively protected the basement from future water damage. The result? Peace of mind restored. Every home deserves to be safe, dry, and comfortable, and we’re proud to help make that a reality.
