Fixer-Upper Home with Wall Instability in Rush City, MN Stabilized with CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System
Before
After
This homeowner in Rush City, MN had bought a fixer-upper hoping to update the basement of the home. However, the renovations could not progress any further without addressing the problems with the foundational wall support. Needing expert advice and peace of mind, the homeowner turned to DBS for help.
Design Specialist Mike Anderson provided a free no-obligation estimate for the owner in order to find the best solution for the home. After careful inspection, Mike recommended that the owner install a CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System.
Foreman Osia Williams led the installation of this solution with help from a team. Carbon Armor was needed because of limited space availability. The solution needed to remain inside the home but still be able to fully support the wall. Suffering from 1" sheering, multiple wall straps were needed to ensure the walls would be completely and permanently supported. This solution is made out of materials that are 10-times stronger than steel and will prevent the wall from any further movement.
This new homeowner can now continue with his basement renovation knowing this DBS solution is secure and discreet.

Job Stories From Rush City, MN
A Need for Push Piers in Rush City, MN
A homeowner in Rush City, MN was concerned about his foundation. He called DBS and made an appointment to have a specialist come out to the home to do a thorough inspection. When the specialist was analyzing the home, he noticed stair-step cracking in the brick foundation wall, a true sign of foundation problems. There were also cracks running through the sidewalk surrounding the home and in the basement slab. When the soil beneath the concrete changes, it causes the slabs to shift and crack, the same reason for the movement in the foundation. To steady the shifting foundation, the specialist suggested using push piers for support. With this solution, the homeowner would no longer have to worry about the stability of his foundation.
