Failing Basement Walls Stabilized In Saginaw, Minnesota

These homeowners in Saginaw, Minnesota reached out to DBS for help stabilizing their cracked and bowing basement walls. There were dramatic shifts in the walls when we arrived.

DBS Design Specialist James Miller went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home, James recommended installing PowerBrace™ wall support beams to stabilize the failing foundation. PowerBrace™ wall support beams are installed with a 75-year nationally backed warranty. Once PowerBrace™ beams are installed the foundation is immediately stabilized and no further bowing will occur. 

This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Nick Burley and his production crew.
