Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

An Brainerd, MN homeowner was sick of anticipating water and mold in their basement each year, so she contacted DBS to find a permanent solution! One of our design specialists visited the house to provide a free, no-obligation, estimate. They ultimately concluded that adding a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system and a CleanSpace wall poly system was the best course of action.

One of our foremen led his group in this installation. The team started by removing concrete spots from the house's interior perimeter. Then, to permanently address flooding, they installed our sub-floor drainage system. After that, the team installed our CleanSpace wall barrier to keep water vapor from entering through the foundation walls. This led to the homeowner feeling confident their basement will be dry moving forward!

Previously, this basement in Brainerd struggled with persistent water leaks, forcing homeowners into a cycle of temporary remedies—from continual water removal to makeshift repairs that proved ineffective over time. Facing the prospect of deteriorating walls and a consistently damp storage area was not acceptable. In the current photo, observe the remarkable change brought about by our WaterGuard® system. Today, the space remains dry, safeguarded, and capable of storing valuables securely, free from water damage concerns. We've successfully converted an ongoing issue into a lasting solution, ensuring the preservation and full usability of both the basement and boathouse structures. This transformation provides peace of mind and enhances the overall happiness within the home.

A homeowner contacted DBS with a desire to resolve mold and water issues in their basement since they plan to stay in their home for the long term. The project was carried out by replacing the old sump pump with the TripleSafe® Sump Pump, installing WaterGuard along the walls to ensure that water flows directly to the sump pump, and lining the walls with CleanSpace® wall protectant to prevent mold growth in the future.
