Flooding Duluth, MN Garage Has WaterGuard® Drain System Installed

These Duluth homeowners reached out to DBS to fix water issues in their garage. They had lived in the home for about 5 years and noticed the issue the first winter living in the home. The water was pooling in the garage and seeping in through the home's foundation. 

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. Foreman Casey Healy and his production team installed our WaterGuard® System along the perimeter of the basement, connecting it to a brand-new SuperSump® pump.

This garage now has an efficient system to handle water and will direct it out and away from the rest of the home.

More Livable Space in Duluth, MN Home with Cathedral Ceiling

This Duluth, MN home had an attic that was finished and converted to living space. Unfortunately, it was not effectively insulated and was proving to be uncomfortable in both extreme winter and summer conditions. Looking to for an insulation solution to fix this problem, the homeowners reached out to DBS.

A Dr. Energy Saver® Design Specialist went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the property and conducting an energy audit, it was determined that proper air sealing and a combination of spray foam and rigid foam insulation were necessary to effectively seal the space.

Our production crew first sealed the gaps in building material and spaces surrounding the attic ducts with ZypFoam™. They then laid down TerraBlock™, our foam insulation that is infused with graphite for a higher R-value. From there, they completely sealed the space with closed-cell spray foam, at 3-5 inches depending on the location in the attic. 

Sealing the attic was key to prevent warm air from escaping the home, and improving the overall energy health of the space.
