How Helical Piers Solved a Foundation Problem in Loretta, WI
A homeowner in Loretta, WI purchased a property with plans to transform it into a popular vacation getaway and Airbnb rental. However, shortly after the purchase, they discovered serious foundation concerns caused by a previous repair that had not been completed correctly. Concerned about the long-term stability of the home and their investment, they contacted DBS for a professional foundation repair solution. After speaking with our customer care team, a detailed inspection was scheduled. During the evaluation, our System Design Specialist identified foundation settlement issues that required immediate attention to ensure the home’s structural integrity and long-term performance.
To permanently stabilize the structure, we recommended the installation of Helical Piers, a trusted foundation repair solution designed to transfer the weight of the home to stable soil below the surface. Helical piers are commonly used to correct settling foundations and help prevent further movement. Our experienced production team carefully installed the helical piers beneath the affected areas of the home. By advancing the piers into stable load-bearing soil, we were able to provide reliable support and restore confidence in the property’s foundation.

And we back every repair with industry-leading, fully transferable warranties.
Foundation Piers:
The Permanent Fix for a Settling Foundation
The most reliable way to stop foundation settlement is to bypass weak soil entirely. DBS Repair installs steel foundation piers that transfer your home’s weight down to stable, load-bearing soil or bedrock, halting settlement permanently and often restoring the structure to its original level position.

What pier installation solves:
Crawl Space Support Jacks:
Permanent Support for Sagging Floors
Soft, bouncy, or uneven floors above a crawl space need an engineered solution. DBS Repair installs the SmartJack® System, a heavy-duty adjustable steel support post designed for long-term floor stability even in weak soils.
How SmartJack® installation works:
To protect your repair long-term, DBS Repair recommends:
Bowing Wall Repair:
Straighten and Stabilize Before It’s Too Late
A bowing foundation wall won’t fix itself. The longer it moves, the fewer options you have. DBS Repair installs proven, trusted systems to stop inward movement and restore wall strength.
Wall Anchor System
PowerBrace™ Wall System
✅ DBS Repair Tip: The earlier a bowing wall is addressed, the higher the chance of full straightening. Walls that have moved more than 2″ are harder and more costly to correct.
Sunken Slab Repair:
Lift and Level Without Full Replacement
A sinking concrete floor in a Minnesota home, garage, cabin, or lake property doesn’t always mean a full tear-out. DBS Repair uses two minimally invasive methods to lift, stabilize, and level settled slabs. Repairing concrete costs much less than the cost to replace concrete.
Slab Pier System
PolyLevel® Foam Injection
