Before & After Photos

This foundation had deteriorated over time and was allowing water into the home through cracks in the walls and through the base of the foundation. The homeowner knew they needed a permanent solution fast or they would be facing much more expensive problems. With the help of our Specialist Henrik we proposed a solution that would secure the entire foundation permanently while waterproofing the most critically important sections at the same time. With the understanding and agreement of the homeowner we soon had our Foreman Casey installing a drian tile around the home with CleanSpace matting that allowed water to drain into the system which led to our our TripleSafe sump pump with a back-up pump and a second back-up pump which is battery powered. After the waterproofing system was in place Casey was able to add the PowerBraces to permanently secure the foundation and prevent further shifting from taking control of the basement walls. When completely this system gives the basement walls a much more clean and bright look and confidence is built in the basement walls when one sees the solid steal beams supporting every wall. 

A client called DBS looking to waterproof their basement and replace some cabinets and shelving in the basement area surrounding the old waterproofing system. DBS uses a WaterGuard® system to waterproof homes efficiently, that also looks nice. We worked on the basement to replace the outdated system and install our new, long-lasting WaterGuard® waterproofing system to make sure that our clients basement is safe and dry, making sure that no moisture creates mildew smell or mold present. We sent our Design Specialist, Rich Johnsen, to the house to successfully waterproof the home for our clients!

These homeowners in Eleveth, MN reached out to DBS when their existing sump pump was starting to fail and unwanted water was staying in their basement. 

DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate and created a plan of action to repair the damage. Our WaterGuard® drain system was installed along the perimeter of the basement and the old sump pump was replaced with our UltraSump® Pump. Water now flows through the drains directly to our UltraSump® and the basement is permanently kept dry during all four seasons!

A DBS Foreman and their production crew installed our PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System to immediately stabilize the bowing walls. Over time the PowerBraces™ are tightened by our service team to restore the wall to level.
This basement is now permanently stabilized and safe for the family to enjoy.
