Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

When Laura noticed the walls of her forever home, doubling as an adult foster care facility, began cracking and bowing, she knew a permanent fix was critical. Concern fueled the search for a trustworthy solution—enter our team. As seen in the before photo, the challenge looked daunting, but our GeoLock™ Wall Anchor system brought unparalleled structural integrity back to the home. The after photo proudly showcases the transformation, epitomizing our commitment to providing long-lasting solutions and a remarkable customer experience.

The customer was looking to have a dryer crawlspace and stable foundation before making repairs to the rest of the structure. Our team went in and installed our SmartJacks® to help stabilize and lift the foundation, as well as, install a waterproofing system to help keep the space dry!

In South Range, WI, we tackled a foundation concern where ongoing structural issues threatened the integrity and future renovations of a beloved barn. As you can see in the before photo, years of leakage and neglect had weakened the foundation, risking major structural damage. Our solution, clearly depicted in the after photo, involved installing our trusted Helical Pier system. This innovative approach not only stabilized the foundation, safeguarding against future issues, but also set the stage for the homeowner's plans to re-side the barn. Through our methodical intervention, we've ensured that this structure stands strong for years to come, fulfilling our mission to deliver a lasting resolution with a remarkable customer experience.

In these before-and-after snapshots from South Range, WI, witness a remarkable transformation. The homeowner faced a dual challenge: concerning foundation issues and troubling basement flooding—issues that needed immediate attention to ensure the home's stability and peace of mind, especially before handing the keys over to a family member. The visible signs of caving walls and water intrusion, as seen in the ‘before’ photo, demanded an urgent and reliable solution. Our expertise led us to implement a comprehensive approach, combining the PowerBrace™, GeoLock™ Wall Anchor, and GeoLock™ Channel Anchor to stabilize the foundation. Additionally, to tackle the flooding, we installed the WaterGuard® and CleanSpace® systems, followed by the robust protection of our UltraSump™ System. As seen in the ‘after’ photo, the structure’s integrity has been fully restored, with the basement transformed into a secure, dry space. This is more than just an aesthetic improvement—it's a testament to our commitment to providing lasting, reliable solutions, ensuring a safe foundation for family memories to be securely built upon for years to come.

The owner of this home in Boyd, WI reached out to DBS looking for a permanent solution to their unstable basement foundation and walls.

One of our Design Specialists went out to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate appointment for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist quoted our PowerBrace® System.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed PowerBrace® i-beams along the walls of the basement. The system will prevent further bowing or new cracks from developing.
Now that the basement has been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.
