Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This transformation shows how the wall in the home was settling due to the ground below the house sinking. The ground was shifting, and so was the home that it was on. To fix this issue, our team installed SmartJacks XT and a supplemental beam to address foundation issues for a homeowner who wanted to ensure their home’s structural integrity before refinishing the floors upstairs. 

When a Duluth homeowner noticed their foundation sagging by five inches on one side, they knew they couldn't proceed with interior repairs until the 'bones' of their house were strong again. As seen in the before photo, the underpinning of their home needed serious attention. Enter our solution: The SmartJack® system. By installing these robust supports, demonstrated in the after photo, we stabilized the foundation, providing a solid, long-lasting fix. Now, this homeowner can move forward with their renovations, resting assured that their house stands on a secure and reliable structure. Our team managed to turn a concerning situation into a secure, uplifting outcome, rolling out our mission to ensure every home's integrity with a remarkable customer experience backed by lasting results.

These homeowners from Duluth, MN reached out to DBS for help stopping growing cracks in their basement from reaching total wall failure. Over time the foundation issues were getting more intense. 

DBS Design Specialist James Miller went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home, James recommended a combination of GeoLock™ earth anchors, CarbonArmor®, and NexusPro sealant. This combination of Supportworks® solutions will immediately stabilize the walls and prevent any future cracking or bowing.

In the bathroom window, the transformation is quite evident. Before the repair, you can see a noticeable gap that compromised the integrity of the space. Our team installed push piers to stabilize the foundation and effectively repair the cracked wall. After our intervention, that gap has been completely eliminated, showcasing the successful restoration of the window's alignment.
