Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Bloomington, MN reached out to DBS looking for help with their wet, unsupported basement foundation. Their main area of concern was around window in their basement, as the walls around it were bowing. One of our Design Specialists went to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate appointment. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist provided the homeowner with a free quote for our Basement Repair Systems.

One of our crews installed our PowerBrace® Wall Bracing System to permanently stabilize the foundation walls around the window. Our crew also installed our WaterGuard® french drain system to thoroughly waterproof the space. Now the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.

This homeowner in Saint Louis Park, MN reached out to DBS for help stabilizing the failing foundation wall in their garage. Built in 1995, the block foundation began shifting, prompting the concrete slab to crack as well. Wanting to avoid further damage to protect the integrity of the home for years to come, they contacted DBS.

Our Design Specialist James Miller visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner's project. It was determined that both foundation repair and concrete support systems were needed to provide a permanent solution going forward.

DBS Foreman Jose Valenzuela and crew excavated the exterior of the home in order to perform a lift procedure. Our team installed 7 push piers total at the base of the home on the exterior of the home. These galvanized steel piers were then hydraulicaly driven into the ground to weight-bearing soils. The weight of the home was then transferred to the competent soil.

After this was completed, our concrete repair team came in to fill gaps and voids beneath the garage slab with PolyLevel®. Once the slab was lifted and leveled, our team installed NexusPro™ to seal and protect the cracks in the concrete. 

The homeowners can now rest easy knowing their home's garage is protected from further foundation damage.
