Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

The foundation wall on this Chanhassen home was bowing and had developed a long crack along the length of the wall. The homeowner understood what could happen if he had ignored the crack and allowed the problem to get worse, so he had a proper inspection of the situation completed. Understanding each of the factors involved in the situation our specialist decided the best solution would be to use Earth Anchors to retain and strengthen the foundation walls. This solution made sense because the foundation walls required permanent support and there was room around the exterior of the home to allow our crews to dig down to where the ends of the Earth Anchors would be set in the ground. This solution was efficiently installed with little disturbance to the owner's landscaping. The foundation is now permanently secure and the homeowner can feel more comfortable in their home.

In Chanhassen, MN, this homeowner had recently purchased the home and was concerned about the growing cracks and inward movement of the basement wall.

The owners of this home in Prior Lake, MN experienced issues with their sunroom sinking and settling into the soil. In hopes of finding a solution, the owners reached out to DBS.

Design Specialist James Miller went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, James educated the owners on a piering system that DBS installs for lighter structures which would be the perfect solution to their problem. 

Foreman Trevor Ingle led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they installed 2 HelixPro®helical piers underneath the structure of the sunroom to permanently stabilize it. Helical piers are installed by using heavy machinery to drive the steel piers deep beneath a structure until they reach soil that is strong enough to support the weight of the structure. 

The homeowners can now comfortably enjoy their sunroom without worrying about it sinking further into the soil.
