The owner of this home in Tower, MN was having issues with keeping their crawl space dry. There was water seeping through the concrete walls and it was causing water damage on the floors. Concerned about the integrity of their belongings in the crawl space if the issue was left unfixed, the owner called DBS.
Director of Sales & Service Royce Bunn went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate of the issue for the owner. After the inspection, Royce informed the owner that DBS had a waterproofing solution that would help keep their basement drier.
A DBS Foreman was sent out to the property along with a crew in order to install the waterproofing system. The system is composed of drains that are installed around the perimeter of the crawlspace by jackhammering a trench for the patented WaterGuard® drain system. WaterGuard® drains collect water running down from the walls and any water leaking up through the footings around the foundation and drops the water into an UltraSump™. The UltraSump™ then drives the water up and away from the foundation and if the power were to fail, a backup battery would kick in with the ability to remove up to 12,000 gallons before dying.
Now that the crawl space has been properly waterproofed, the homeowner can have peace of mind. They can relax comfortably in their home knowing that their crawl space will stay drier and promote healthier conditions while ensuring their belongings are safe.

The owner of this home had recently moved in when they discovered that their basement struggled with staying dry. Cracks had also formed in the walls, an indication of foundation failure. Looking for a solution to their leaking and foundation issues, the owner called DBS.
Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate of the issues. After a thorough investigation, he informed the owner of DBS's solutions that would fix both issues. For the leaking, he suggested installing WaterGuard® Drain System, CleanSpace® to waterproof the walls, and a TripleSafe™ sump pump. As for the foundational issues, he recommended the PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System.
Foreman Joe Harris led the installation for this project. With the help of a team, they installed the WaterGuard® Drain System to help direct water into the TripleSafe™ sump pump so that it can be expelled outside and away from the foundation. The walls were lined with CleanSpace® to direct water leaking down the walls into the WaterGuard® Drains. They also installed 16 PowerBrace™ I-beams to stabilize the walls. The PowerBrace™ System is backed with a 75-warranty against movement.
The homeowner can now relax comfortably in their new home knowing that their home has been permanently stabilized, their walls are free from further cracking, and the leaks have been contained.
