Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

These homeowners in Eleveth, MN reached out to DBS when their existing sump pump was starting to fail and unwanted water was staying in their basement. 

DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate and created a plan of action to repair the damage. Our WaterGuard® drain system was installed along the perimeter of the basement and the old sump pump was replaced with our UltraSump® Pump. Water now flows through the drains directly to our UltraSump® and the basement is permanently kept dry during all four seasons!

An Eveleth, MN homeowner was preparing their home to sell, so they reached out to DBS so they could position customers to purchase. One of our design specialists visited the house to provide a free, no-obligation, estimate. They ultimately concluded that adding a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system was the best course of action.

One of our foremen led his group in this installation. The team started by removing concrete spots from the house's interior perimeter. Then, to permanently address flooding, they installed our sub-floor drainage system. After that, the team installed our CleanSpace wall barrier to keep water vapor from entering through the foundation walls. This led to the homeowner feeling confident their basement will be dry moving forward!

In Eveleth, MN, one homeowner faced the challenges of their basement walls marred with water stains and mold, signaling a failed waterproofing effort. The existing system was incomplete, protecting only part of the areas in need. These issues compromised not just the structure's integrity but the home's atmosphere. We went in with a comprehensive plan involving the strategic placement of our WaterGuard system—a robust solution tailored for comprehensive basement protection and the use of Mold-X to get rid of and prevent mold in the future. The after photo captures a transformed space: dry, mold-free, and fully safeguarded against future moisture threats. Our targeted approach not only revitalized the basement but restored our customer's peace of mind.

When the Gilbert, MN homeowner contacted us, they were at their wits' end with a basement plagued by persistent water issues, escalating black mold concerns, and a strong desire to reclaim the space for simple uses like storage. As shown in the before photo, the situation was severe, with visible signs of moisture damage and the homeowner's futile attempts to manage it with buckets.

Determined to make a difference, we implemented our CleanSpace® and SaniDry™ Sedona solutions, as seen in the after photo. These solutions not only waterproofed the basement but also ensured it became a safe, dry, and usable area free from health-threatening mold.

The transformation is remarkable—the space is now more than just a basement; it's a valuable addition to their home, where previous concerns have been replaced with comfort and reliability.
