A homeowner reached out to DBS looking for help with their wet basement foundation. One of our Design Specialists went to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate appointment. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist provided the homeowner with a free no-obligation estimate for our Basement Wateproofing. One of our crews installed our french drain system and a new sump pump to thoroughly waterproof the space.

The owner of this home had recently moved in when they discovered that their basement struggled with staying dry. Cracks had also formed in the walls, an indication of foundation failure. Looking for a solution to their leaking and foundation issues, the owner called DBS.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate of the issues. After a thorough investigation, he informed the owner of DBS's solutions that would fix both issues. For the leaking, he suggested installing WaterGuard® Drain System, CleanSpace® to waterproof the walls, and a TripleSafe™ sump pump. As for the foundational issues, he recommended the PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System.

Foreman Joe Harris led the installation for this project. With the help of a team, they installed the WaterGuard® Drain System to help direct water into the TripleSafe™ sump pump so that it can be expelled outside and away from the foundation. The walls were lined with CleanSpace® to direct water leaking down the walls into the WaterGuard® Drains. They also installed 16 PowerBrace™ I-beams to stabilize the walls. The PowerBrace™ System is backed with a 75-warranty against movement.

The homeowner can now relax comfortably in their new home knowing that their home has been permanently stabilized, their walls are free from further cracking, and the leaks have been contained.

This waterproofing job was done for a church group in Virginia, MN. They had noticed the basement was having issues with staying dry and were referred to DBS by someone who had previously had work done.

Design Specialist Rich Johnsen visited the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After completing a thorough investigation, he suggested DBS's waterproofing system solution. The system is composed of installing a WaterGuard®Drain System to divert water into a sump pump.

Foreman Jordan Jeseritz led the installation of this project. With the help of a crew, they installed the WaterGuard®Drain System by jackhammering the perimeter of the room, affixing the drains into each trench, and covering the trenches with cement. They installed a TripleSafe™ sump pump for the drain system to empty water into and directed a discharge line from the sump pump out and away from the foundation.

Now that the basement has been properly waterproofed, the residents will be able to relax comfortably in a healthier and drier environment.
