Homeowners in International Falls, MN had lived in this home since it was built in 1962. They noticed some cracking in the walls, and tracked its progress until it got worse. They noticed their foundation was shifting and settling, causing doors and windows to stick. Looking for a permanent solution 

DBS Sales Manager Royce Bunn was the Design Specialist for the job provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. He discovered significant cracking and shifting in the foundation and therefore recommended several foundation support products as well as a waterproofing system to fully protoect the basement. 

A DBS foreman and crew first dug and installed a WaterGuard® system connecting it to a SuperSump® Premier Pump System. From there, they installed 4 CarbonArmor® Wall Defense Strips and 10 PowerBrace™ steel I-beams.
