Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

The owner of this home in Tofte, MN reached out to DBS for help with foundation issues as they intended on eventually turning the property into a rental.

Design Specialist James Miller went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, James recommended our concrete and leveling services.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of the project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed 3 SmartJack® supports and the main steel beam to provide permanent stabilization to the home.

Now that the crawl space has been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.

Facing a city mandate in Gilbert, MN, a concerned homeowner reached out to us due to worrying cracks and uneven concrete in their basement. It made basic maintenance like sweeping a chore. As seen in the before photo, the space was in dire need of some attention. Thankfully, after installing the SmartJack® system, noticeable improvements can be observed in the after photo. The space is now level, secure, and complies with local mandates, showcasing our mission to deliver lasting solutions and a remarkable customer experience.

This is the kind of cabin you would not feel very relaxed at. Isn't that what you want when you go on vacation?

With a foundation like this, the owner was experiencing doors that wouldn't open, and slanted floors. This problem can come from poorly built foundations, bad soil, drying and shrinking of soil, wetting and softening of soil, etc. If you are having concerns about your foundation settling, call us today! We have a solution for you!

DBS received a call that required foundation and crawl space repair. The household required several services. First, excavate the home. Then, put a layer of our waterproofing materials, and then put exterior drainage around the entire home. The drainage would ultimately lead away from the home after this long process of hard work, but DBS is always up for the job. We’ve included a photo of the home before we began the production process, followed by the excavation of the home to get a better idea of the work that DBS did for our clients.

A homeowner in Paynesville, MN was experiencing issues with the crawl space of their home. The area was comprised of wood posts and cinder blocks to help support it, and over time, it began to settle and caused the floor above to sag. The owner was curious as to what DBS could offer for a solution, so we had a Design Specialist visit and give a free, no-obligation estimate for the crawl space repair. Our crew was able to install the SmartJack® System to help stabilize the sagging floor, and even work to push it back to the original positioning. The results of the project can be viewed here.
