Foundation Support System to Help Sinking Structure in Minong, WI

This home in Minong, WI was suffering from a settling, sinking foundation. The owners were looking for a permanent and professional solution, so they reached out to DBS for help.

Design Specialist James Miller assisted the homeowners with a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful inspection, James recommended our Piering Services and provided a quote.

Foreman Trevor Ingle led the installation of this project with help from a team. Together, the team used hydraulic pressure to drive the helical piers down into the stable soil. These piers are able to fully support the structure and are adjusted to raise the structure back to a level, stable position.

SmartJack® XL System Installed in Cook, MN

A homeowner in Cook, MN was experiencing some issues with the basement of their home and the stability of the walls and ceiling. Over time, the weight against the structure had caused the walls to start bending, and the floor above to start sagging. In need of a solution, they had a Design Specialist come out and offer a free, no-obligation estimate for the foundation repair. It was determined that our crew would go in and install a set of PowerBrace™ units as well as a SmartJack® system with a supplemental beam to support the floor above.
