Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The basement of this Hermantown, MN was damaged when water seeped into their basement. The home had an existing drain and sump pump, but it was proving insufficient waterproofing system. In search of a permanent solution, they reached out to DBS.

DBS Sales Manager Royce Bunn was the Design Specialist for this project and recommended that the old drain be removed and a new drain system installed in its place.

A DBS foreman and crew installed a new french drain system and CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier along the perimeter of the basement. This system directs all the moisture to the home's existing sump pump.

The installation was successful and provided a solid solution to the leaking water.

From wet to dry, our recent project in Duluth, MN exemplifies the transformative work we're renowned for. Initially, the homeowner encountered a common challenge—a damp basement that made it unsuitable for renting. Visible in the 'before' photo were clear signs of moisture and cracks.

The 'after' photo tells the story—a dry, rent-ready basement.
