Before & After Photos

This home in Duluth, Minnesota was in need of serious help when DBS arrived. Deep cracks and severe bowing were occurring when Design Specialist Nathan Schroeder provided a free, no-obligation estimate. Nathan created a plan to stabilize the failing foundation walls with Supportworks® PowerBrace™ wall support beams.  

PowerBrace™ wall support beams immediately stabilize cracked and bowing walls. They are installed with a 75-year fully transferable nationally backed warranty. This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Nick Burley and his production crew. 

This home is now healthy, safe, and comfortable! 

These homeowners from Duluth, MN reached out to DBS for help stabilizing their cracking foundation. The bricks outside the home were cracking and falling apart when DBS arrived. 

DBS Design Specialist James Miller went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the damage James recommended installing a helical pier on the problematic section of this home. Helical Piers reach solid bedrock deep below the surface of the earth and offer a permanent stabilization solution. This system is covered with dirt after installed and is completely hidden from sight. 

The foundation was stabilized by DBS Foreman Jose Valenzuela and his production crew.

This family now has a stable, healthy, safe, and comfortable home!

These homeowners from Duluth, MN reached out to DBS for help keeping their leaky basement dry. Over time cracks on the wall were becoming more intense and water was seeping into the lower level, causing water damage and musty odors throughout the home. 

DBS Design Specialist Jason Brummer went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home, Jason recommended installing CleanSpace® waterproofing vapor barrier along all walls in the basement. This was paired with a new TripleSafe™ sump pump to direct any water out of this home! 

This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Joe Harris and his production crew. This unique solution made this home healthy, safe, and comfortable all year round! 

This cabin is located on the edge of Duluth, MN and was built in 1947. The owners had concerns about the structural integrity of both the main cabin and smaller guest cabin and sauna near the lakeshore. Looking for a permanent solution, they contacted DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate.

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home, providing a thorough estimate. It was determined that a piering solution was needed to permanently stabilize both of these structures.

DBS Co-Foreman Justin Lundgren and Installer Trevor Ingle performed the work, driving 8 HelixPro® piers into both buildings in total. They also installed added 4 SmartJack® beams in the cabin to lift and support the main floor.

The cabin owner was happy with the worth our crew completed to protect their family retreat.

This homeowner in Duluth, MN needed assistance with their waterproofing needs. Their current drain system had failed and flooded their basement. Needing a new system, they reached out to DBS for a solution.

Design Specialist James Miller conducted a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowners. After a careful inspection, it was decided that our WaterGuard® Drain System would be the most effective and efficient solution for the home. 

Foreman Dustin Behning led a team in the installation of this project. Together, the team removed a concrete trench around the perimeter of the basement and place the WaterGuard® drain lines within. These drains collect the intrusive water and transport it to a newly installed TripleSafe™ sump pump to discharge the water outside and away from the home. 

This homeowner can now relax knowing their home is reliably protected against water intrusion.
