Before & After Photos

The homeowner at this property in Grand Rapids, MN was having trouble with the presence of water in their basement. They were looking into finishing their basement but knew they needed to address the water issue first. Looking for a solution, they contacted DBS.

Design Specialist Rich Johnsen visited the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowners. Upon further inspection, he made note of signs of water damage throughout the basement and concluded that the home would benefit from DBS's WaterGuard® draining system and TripleSafe™ sump pump.

Carpenter Brandon Wollin led the installation of this project and with the help of a crew, they installed a WaterGuard® drain system to help direct water flow to the TripleSafe™ sump pump. The TripleSafe™ sump pump would allow for more water to be expelled from the basement, helping to maintain a dry environment.

The homeowners of this property can relax comfortably in their homes now that they know their basement will stay drier and promote healthy clean air.

This home in Grand Rapids, MN 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.

One of our Design Specialists assisted the homeowners with a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful inspection, they recommended our Piering Services and provided a quote.

A DBS Foreman 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.

Design Specialist, Royce Bunn went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. Our SmartJack® System was used to permanently stabilize and lift the foundation of the boathouse. This system works by driving piers deep into the earth until bedrock is hit, which offers permanent stabilization. 

Foreman, Kevin Steffey, and his production crew installed the support systems and these homeowners can now enjoy their boathouse for years to come without fear of it sinking or becoming unstable!
