Lakeshore Cabin in Duluth, MN Permanently Supported with Helical Piers

This cabin is located on the edge of Duluth, MN and was built in 1947. The owners had concerns about the structural integrity of both the main cabin and smaller guest cabin and sauna near the lakeshore. Looking for a permanent solution, they contacted DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate.

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home, providing a thorough estimate. It was determined that a piering solution was needed to permanently stabilize both of these structures.

DBS Co-Foreman Justin Lundgren and Installer Trevor Ingle performed the work, driving 8 HelixPro® piers into both buildings in total. They also installed added 4 SmartJack® beams in the cabin to lift and support the main floor.

The cabin owner was happy with the worth our crew completed to protect their family retreat.
