Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

The owners of this home in Pengilly, MN were experiencing issues with cracking in their basement foundation walls. After being referred to DBS by an employee, the owners called to set up an estimate.

A DBS Design Specialist went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist informed the owners of DBS's PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System. The PowerBrace™ System would permanently stabilize the wall and could potentially straighten the wall over time as there are brackets at the top of each PowerBrace™ I-beam that can be tightened during dry periods.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project. With assistance from a crew, they installed 7 PowerBrace™ I-beams to permanently stabilize the foundation wall. Each PowerBrace™ I-beam is backed with a 75-year warranty against movement.

Now that the foundation has been properly stabilized, the owners can relax peacefully in their homes.

DBS received a call that a home in Pengilly was having trouble with their wall stabilization, so DBS sent our Design Specialist, Jace Alli, to the home to make sure the home was stable. Jace recommended that we install PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System to support the home and make sure it’s a safe environment for the family.

The owner of this cabin in Floodwood, MN reached out to DBS in hopes of finding a solution to their failing foundation.

A DBS Design Specialist went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the cabin owner. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist recommended our helical piering system.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed helical piers to replace the failing support posts underneath the cabin. Piers are installed by driving them into the ground beneath a structure until they are lodged into soil strong enough to support the weight of the structure, providing permanent stability.

Now that the cabin's foundation issues have been taken care of, the owner will be able to relax more comfortably with peace of mind, not having to worry about the issue any longer.

A homeowner reached out to DBS about a cabin in Floodwood, MN. The cabin was built on 6' wood posts and tends to heave in the winter time. DBS proposed the wood posts be replaced with helical piers.
