Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Bayfield, WI contacted DBS to address sinking support beams and water issues in their crawl space. Because the owners were transitioning this property from their cabin to permanent residence, they wanted a solid, long-lasting solution to give them peace of mind.

A DBS Design Specialist visited the property to provide a free, no-obligation estimate, evaluating the basement and creating a plan of action. From there, our Foreman and crew installed the SmartJack® System to brace interior support beams in the crawlspace. A CleanSpace® liner and matting were installed to assist with proper drainage, paired with an UltraSump® pump to keep the space free from water.   

The homeowners were pleased with the result, saying that the work was handled professionally by the DBS team, and can now enjoy a well-supported and dry crawl space. 

Before our intervention, as depicted in the photo, a Bayfield homeowner grappled with the challenge of water seeping into their basement, compromising the comfort and safety of their home—a familiar yet distressing issue when it affects your own living space. The existing DryTrak® system fell short, leaving behind dampness and ongoing concern.

Upon our expert team's intervention, we bolstered their defenses with DryTrak®—providing effective protection and drainage against foundation wall seepage, while maintaining a clean, finished baseboard appearance—and WaterGuard®. Notice in the after photo how meticulously installed the WaterGuard® system lines the perimeter, offering a robust, virtually invisible solution that channels water into a sump pump rather than the living area.

Our objective was clear: transform a troubling situation into an opportunity to deliver peace of mind and enduring dryness. The outcome? A completely renovated basement, now ready to host life's moments free from the looming threat of water intrusion. With DBS's expertise, persistent problems find permanent solutions, restoring homes to their rightful state: safe, dry, and serene.

A homeowner from Woodbury, MN reached out to DBS looking for help with their damp basement. One of our Design Specialists went to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate appointment. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist provided the homeowner with a free quote for our Basement Waterproofing Service. One of our crews installed our WaterGuard® french drains and CleanSpace® water vapor barrier in the basement to thoroughly waterproof the space, providing the homeowner with peace of mind.

This Saint Paul homeowner faced a crawl space nightmare, complete with unwelcome mice and a musty smell, desperately seeking a solution. When we got to the property, we stepped in and transformed this crawlspace. First, our team installed CleanSpace, an encapsulation system that seals out moisture and pests. Then, we added SilverGlow insulation, enhancing energy efficiency!
