Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in International Falls, MN reached out to DBS regarding their basement walls. The wood addition was beginning to bow, and it was concerning for the rest of the home. DBS was able to visit the property and provide a free, no-obligation estimate for the wall support service. It was concluded that the wall would need to have GeoLock® units installed to provide maximum stabilization for the basement walls. The results turned out beautifully, and the homeowner can now enjoy a more safe and comfortable environment.

The owners of this home in International Falls, MN reached out to DBS looking for help with their bowing basement walls.

Design Specialist Jake Gilmer went out to the home to conduct a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, Jake generated a quote for our PowerBrace® Wall Bracing System.

Foreman Osia Williams led the installation of this project with help from Co-Foreman Rowan Wentworth. Together, they installed PowerBrace® i-beams onto the basement walls in order to permanently stabilize the foundation. These steel beams stop the wall from any further movement and can be adjusted to restore the wall back to its original positioning. 

Now that the walls have been permanently stabilized, the homeowners can relax.

Homeowners in International Falls, MN had lived in this home since it was built in 1962. They noticed some cracking in the walls, and tracked its progress until it got worse. They noticed their foundation was shifting and settling, causing doors and windows to stick. Looking for a permanent solution 

DBS Sales Manager Royce Bunn was the Design Specialist for the job provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. He discovered significant cracking and shifting in the foundation and therefore recommended several foundation support products as well as a waterproofing system to fully protoect the basement. 

A DBS foreman and crew first dug and installed a WaterGuard® system connecting it to a SuperSump® Premier Pump System. From there, they installed 4 CarbonArmor® Wall Defense Strips and 10 PowerBrace™ steel I-beams. 

The homeowners now have a happy, safe, and comfortable home to enjoy for years to come!

This wall had cracked and had shown signs of worsening if not addressed immediately. In this situation, we recommended using our patented Power Braces to help the foundation wall maintain its position and eliminate the risk of adverse effects of further wall movement.
