At this stage of wall failure, James recommended installing PowerBrace™ wall support beams to keep the home permanently stable, healthy, and safe. PowerBrace™ wall support beams are installed with a 75-year nationally-backed warranty! 

This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Zach Jorenby and his production crew.

The homeowner of this Deerwood, MN home was concerned about the stability of their foundation. There were stair-step cracks running down the walls and it was slightly bowing inward. After calling DBS, a design specialist came out for a free, no-obligation estimate.

He inspected the home and then proposed a solution along with an estimate that same day. This quality solution included a helical anchor system to pull the wall back into place and stabilize it. Because there were also water issues found in the foundation, the solution included a waterproofing system.

With a signed proposal, a date was set to have the production crew come out to install the high-quality solution. The production crew then came out and professionally installed the waterproofing and helical anchor system. With this solution in place, the homeowner no longer had to worry about the unstable foundation.
