Foundation Repair in Cloquet, MN

Facing a rocky start in Cloquet, MN, this homeowner noticed their once steady floors had become an unwelcome roller coaster ride inside their own house. Eager to stabilize and bring peace of mind back to this home, the team at DBS sprang into action. Using the robust Push Pier© system, as visibly captured in these before-and-after photos, we dove deep below the surface to anchor and stabilize their foundation. Now, notice how the after photo reflects not just a level floor but the homeowner's restored confidence in the safety of their home. With DBS, sagging spirits were lifted, quite literally!

SmartJack® System Installed in Crawl Space of Cloquet, MN Home

The owner of this home in Cloquet, MN reached out to DBS for help with their crawl space that was built by contractors who cut corners in order to do a quick job.

Foreman Osia Williams led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed 5 SmartJack® supports in the crawl space of the home in order to provide proper stabilization to the flooring above.

Now that the home has been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.

Unique PowerBrace™ Installation in Alborn, MN

A home foundation in Alborn, MN was experiencing cracking throughout the perimeter of the basement area, and the issue needed to be resolved. The homeowner reached out to DBS in order to find a solution. It was concluded that the foundation wall would need the PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System installed to properly support the structure. Unlike other PowerBrace™ jobs, this was required a unique "H" design below the staircase in order to properly fit the brace, as shown in the photo. Though this is not something that normally occurs, DBS was able to get the job done, and the results turned out great!

Cabin Foundation Stabilization in Alborn, MN

A homeowner in Alborn, MN reached out to DBS regarding the lack of foundation support for their home. They were worried that the lack of support would cause the cabin structure to fail and eventually fall over. In need of a solution, they had a Design Specialist come out to visit and provide a free, no-obligation estimate for the cabin repair. It was decided that the cabin would need to have both helical piers and SmartJacks® installed to properly support and stabilize the structure. 

Bowing and Leaning Basement Foundation Walls Stabilized with DBS PowerBrace® System in Alborn, MN

The owner of this home in Alborn, MN reached out to DBS in hopes of finding a solution to their failing basement foundation walls.

Design Specialist Rich Johnsen went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, Rich generated a quote for our PowerBrace® Wall Reinforcing System.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed 10 PowerBrace® i-beams along the basement walls in order to correct bowing that had happened over the years. Over time the brackets at the top of each i-beam can be tightened in an attempt to straighten the wall back to its original position.

Now that the basement has been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind and not need to worry about the structural integrity of their home.
