Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Duluth, MN was looking to have an updated window well for their basement waterproofing and finishing project. Our crew was able to go out and install a new egress window for the basement. Egress windows allow for more natural light and fresh air around the area, while also providing an exit point in case of emergency situations. Egress windows are ideal for anyone looking to add on to or finish their basement.

A homeowner in Duluth, MN Had a fully finished basement that they wanted to make usable again after water had been leaking into it. This was an issue that they addressed with DBS and our Design Specialist Rich met with them to diagnose the issue and offer a solution. It was determined that our team would install WaterGuard® along the perimeter of the basement where the water had been leaking. Afterward, they would refinish the existing drywall with EverLast® Wall Restoration. EverLast® is comprised of mold, moisture, and mildew-resistant material that is a perfect addition to any basement waterproofing system. The results of the project can be seen here.

Homeowners in Duluth, MN reached out to us after learning about our company on local television. They were in search of a permanent solution to address water leaking in their basement after rains.

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home for a free, no-obligation estimate for our waterproofing system. It was determined that some waterproofing products, as well as some structural support, as needed. Foreman Kevin Steffey and his crew installed a brand new SaniDry™ dehumidifier and IceGuard® to prevent wintertime freeze-up of discharge lines. They also installed 8 PowerBrace™ I-beams to provide long-lasting support of the home. 

The homeowner was happy with the work done and can now enjoy a dry and supported basement! 

A homeowner in Proctor, MN had a basement that was unfinished, and they reached out to DBS for help with finishing ideas. Besides making the area look nice, basement finishing can also help with moisture and odor control, among other things. After a free, no-obligation estimate, it was decided that the remodeling would include a variety of items. The photos here show the unfinished basement in the "before" section, and the "after" section shows the EverLast™ Basement Wall Panels that were installed. The results turned out great, and the homeowner can now enjoy a more comofrtable basement environment. 

A homeowner in Hermantown, MN was looking to finish their basement after having a proper waterproofing system installed. After WaterGuard® and a TripleSafe™ sump pump were installed, DBS had EverLast™ Finished Wall Restoration installed to replace the existing drywall. Drywall is easily damaged by water, which can later lead to mold formation. EverLast™ is a waterproof wall option that also adds insulation, and the washable surface looks great for many years. This is a product used in many of our total Basement Finishing™ systems and is a great choice to add to any waterproofing system.
