Before & After Photos

Transforming a damp, unfinished basement in Wrenshall, MN, into a cozy and dry future living space was our mission. The homeowner's vision? To add bedrooms and a bathroom for their growing family. The challenge? A wet, uninviting space, as you can see in the "before" photo. Our solution paired WaterGuard® for leak prevention, the SaniDry™ Sedona for moisture control, and the DoubleSafe™ Sump Pump for ultimate water evacuation. The result? A dry, welcoming basement ready for transformation, shown proudly in our "after" photo.

This Chetek, WI home was built in 2000. Just this year, the homeowners had isssues with water intrusion in their basement, that caused damage to their drywall and plywood walls. 

Our Design Specialist Rich Johnsen visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the waterproofing work. It was determined that a drainage system and new sump pump were needed to protect the home after heavy rains. 

DBS Foreman Zach Jorenby and crew worked on the interior waterproofing job. The crew began by breaking out concrete to create a trench around the home's footing. Our WaterGuard® drain system was put into place and will effectively capture wall and floor seepage, directing it to a new SingleSafe™ sump pump. The crew finished the job by burying adding an IceGuard® outlet to prevent any winter time freezeups of the discharge line.

This homeowner no longer has to worry about basement flooding, and can count on a dry basement going forward. 

A homeowner from Cameron, WI reached out to DBS looking for help with their damp basement. One of our Design Specialists provided the homeowner with a free no-obligation estimate after a thorough inspection. One of our crews installed our basement waterproofing products and restored the bottom portion of the basement walls to provide the homeowner with a healthy, safe, and comfortable home.

In Cameron, WI, homeowners struggled with a damp basement and foundation issues that caused offers to be retracted after inspections. The before photo shows the extent of the water damage and foundation concerns. We solved these problems by installing the WaterGuard® system and TripleSafe™ Sump Pump for a dry, secure basement, and used the GeoLock™ Wall Anchor system to stabilize the foundation. The after photo showcases a transformed, worry-free space. With these solutions in place, the homeowners can now sell their home with confidence, knowing their basement is dry and their foundation is secure.

This customer found us at the Hibbing Home Show in March of 2018. She had many concerns with her basement, one was leaking water through the foundation.  System Design Specialist, Rich Johnsen visited the home and proposed installing our WaterGauard system and SuperSump to help eliminate leaking water. An additional 20mil poly would be installed on the walls to help siphon the water into the WaterGuard track.
