Before & After Photos

This homeowner contacted DBS after having piers installed earlier this year, expressing concern about further outward bowing of the wall. When our Design Specialist went out to the property, they recommended placing 5 GeoLocks® in the ground outside of the sinking wall to help stabilize the wall by providing GeoLocks® are specifically designed ground stabilization systems engineered to enhance the stability of structures, particularly in areas prone to soil movement or subsidence. By strategically placing five GeoLocks® around the sinking wall perimeter, the structural integrity can be significantly improved. These GeoLocks® act as anchors, penetrating deep into the ground to create a secure foundation, effectively counteracting any potential forces that may cause the wall to shift or sink further.

This homeowner in Saint Paul, MN became concerned when they noticed sagging floors in their home. Knowing its cause is settlement sinking and a lack of stable support beams, they wanted to find a solution. 

A DBS Design Specialist visited the home and conducted a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a careful inspection, a quote was provided for our SmartJack® System. 

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project. The team installed 2 SmartJack® Systems in order to evenly distribute the weight of the structure. These jacks are secured using steel footing. The jacks can be adjusted in order to raise the floor above back into its original position.

This homeowner can now enjoy their level, secure home.

This basement is now permanently stabilized and safe for the family to enjoy.

This home in White Bear Lake, MN was leaking water in one particular part of the basement. Homeowners had issues with water making its way into the basement in large amounts, especially in the spring while the family was traveling. Wanting to put the anxiety to rest and come up with a permanent solution, they contacted DBS.

Sales Manager Royce Bunn was the Design Specialist for this project and visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. It was determined that an insulating-waterproofing system would need to be installed.

DBS Foreman Zach Royer and crew excavated soil around the base of the home's front entry and added a SentrySeal® membrane to seal off any cracks in the foundation from the outside. The crew also installed SilverGlo™ insulation to further protect the home's foundation.

The homeowners were happy with the work done and now have heavy-duty insulation and support for their basement. 

The owner of this home in Saint Paul, MN had issues with water leaking into their basement. Over time, the water damaged the walls, flooring, and some of their belongings. Looking for a solution, the homeowner reached out to DBS.

Design Specialist James Miller went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, he generated a quote for our WaterGuard®System and a TripleSafe™ sump pump.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they installed the WaterGuard®Drain System around the interior perimeter of the basement by creating trenches for the drains to be placed into. The TripleSafe™ sump pump was installed in the lowest part of the home to collect water in the drains and pump it up and away from the foundation.

Now that the home has been properly waterproofed, the homeowner can relax knowing that their basement will stay drier.
