Before & After Photos

The owners of this home in Aurora, MN experienced issues with water leaking into their basement. The couple said that the leak was so bad that water would spew out as if it were running from a hose. They decided to reach out to DBS in hopes of finding a solution after being referred by a friend.

Design Specialist Rich Johnsen met the owners at their home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, Rich advised the owners that DBS had a solution that would solve their problem called WaterGuard® Drain System. 

A Foreman led the installation of the project and with the help of a team, they successfully installed the WaterGuard® System. It was installed by jackhammering trenches for the drains to be placed into and then are covered in concrete to create a flush look. Typically this system is paired with a sump pump but the original one was in working condition.

Now that the basement has been properly waterproofed, the owners should experience a drier home environment and will be able to relax comfortably in their healthy home.

An Aurora, MN homeowner was sick of anticipating water and mold in their basement each year, so she contacted DBS to find a permanent solution! One of our design specialists visited the house to provide a free, no-obligation, estimate. They ultimately concluded that adding a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system and a CleanSpace wall poly system was the best course of action.

One of our foremen led his group in this installation. The team started by removing concrete spots from the house's interior perimeter. Then, to permanently address flooding, they installed our sub-floor drainage system. After that, the team installed our CleanSpace wall barrier to keep water vapor from entering through the foundation walls. This led to the homeowner feeling confident their basement will be dry moving forward!
