Homeowners in Superior, WI were experiencing sagging floors and water issues due to their home's crawl space. After meeting DBS at the Duluth Home Show, they decided to take the step to find a permanent solution to the problem.
DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the crawl space encapsulation work and foundation support.
DBS Foreman Kevin Steffey and his production team first installed a CleanSpace® vapor barrier to completely seal the space from moisture. 6 Smart Jacks were installed to support the sinking ceiling in the home's crawl space and partial basement. They also installed a SmartDrain to direct water out of the space and finished the job by using spray foam to insulate the perimeter and rim joists of the crawl space.
This crawl space is now completely sealed and supported putting the homeowners at ease.
A homeowner in Superior, WI had a dirt crawl space that was prone to wetness. Concerned about how this was affecting the humidity and temperature in the rest of their home, they reached out to us about our Dr. Energy Saver services.
A Design Specialist trained in energy-saving solutions, visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. It was recommended that a CleanSpace® vapor barrier be laid over drainage matting. These two products work together to direct water away from the crawl space, preventing moisture and the growth of mold. Additionally, a SmartSump™ was put into place.
The DBS Foreman and production crew installed these products resulting in a great improvement of this home's overall health.

The owners of this home in Superior, WI experienced issues with cold floors and a drafty home due to improper insulation of their crawl space. They reached out to DBS after seeing an ad for crawl space insulation while perusing the newspaper.
Design Specialist Henry Junbauer went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. A thorough inspection led Henry to conclude that properly insulating the crawl space walls would provide the homeowners with a more comfortable home and cheaper energy bills.
Foreman Raeshawn Pelfrey led the installation of this project and with the help of a team they successfully applied a layer of closed-cell polyurethane spray foam to the interior walls of the crawl space. This specific foam expands into small crevices to completely air-seal the space. Moisture will soak its way through fiberglass and cellulose insulation, but polyurethane spray foam stops it cold.
Now that the block walls in their crawl space have been properly sealed, the owners of this home will experience warmer floors and a comfier home. As the owners tough out their first winter on the north shore, they will also notice lower energy bills.
This homeowner in Superior, WI needed help with their sinking floors. The support beams in the basement had shifted, making the doors and windows fit improperly. They wanted the floors raised and the home functioning properly once again.
Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo conducted a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After doing so, he provided a quote and recommended our SmartJack® Support System.
Foreman Osia Williams led the installation of this project along with a partner. Together, the duo installed multiple SmartJacks® in order to evenly distribute the weight of the structure. These steel jacks are able to be adjusted, allowing the floors to be raised back to their original positioning. This movement allows the doors and windows to function properly again.
This homeowner can now relax in their happy, healthy, and functioning home.
