Before & After Photos

In the heart of Cotton, MN, on Memorial Day, a home's foundation was on the brink of failure, threatening the entire structure with collapse. As you can see in the 'before' photo, disaster seemed imminent. Coming to the rescue, our dedicated team at DBS employed our best-in-class Helical Pier system to secure and stabilize the foundation. Notice in the 'after' photo, the remarkable transformation. Our commitment to providing a reliable solution saved the day, ensuring the homeowner's peace of mind for years to come.

In Cotton, MN, a homeowner is preparing to build a deck designed to support bunk houses—but before construction begins, they wanted to ensure long-term stability. The original site, shown in the first photo, was just bare ground awaiting a solid start. That’s where our Helical Pier System came in. These engineered steel piers were drilled deep into the earth to reach stable soil, creating a dependable foundation for the future deck. As seen in the second photo, the piers are in place and ready to carry the load. Now, this project has a rock-solid start—built to last before the first board is even laid.

A homeowner needed better wall stabilzation for the foundation of their home. DBS went in and installed the GeoLock® Wall Anchor System to help support the wall and hopefully straighten it back out. The photos show the yard and foundation wall before and after the anchors were embedded within the soil.

These homeowners in Makinen, MN reached out to DBS for help with making their cabin more energy efficient. Rising heating and cooling costs were an issue in this cabin and the homeowners wanted a permanent solution for the problem. 

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 closed cell spray foam would offer the best solution for the temperature regulation problem. This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Orrin Sundberg and his production crew.

This home is now healthy, safe, and comfortable! 

When a homeowner in Makinen, MN noticed their foundation was in need of repair, they called us for help. As you can see in the before photo, the issue was significant, impacting both the foundation and the crawlspace. After a call with our Appointment Center, a free, no-obligation inspection was scheduled with Design Specialist Rich. Our production team, led by Jordan, got to work installing Push Piers, which not only corrected the foundation issues but also revitalized the overall stability of the home. The after photo showcases our commitment to providing a durable solution to ensure lasting peace of mind. See the transformation for yourself - a safe, solid foundation ready to stand the test of time.
