The owner of this home in St. Croix Falls, WI reached out to DBS looking for help with bowing basement walls.
Design Specialist Rich Johnsen went out to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, Rich recommended our PowerBrace® System.
A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed 14 PowerBrace® i-beams along the basement walls to permanently stabilize the foundation. Each i-beam is bolted to the slab of the basement and secured to the rim joists of the home. At the top of each i-beam is a bracket that can be tightened during dry months in an attempt to move the wall back to its original position.
Now that the basement walls have been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.
Even in a tight crawl space like this we can create a fresh new clean space. We used spray foam insulation and our clean space system to get this crawl space in tip top shape!

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the owner. After completing a thorough inspection, Henrik suggested that this property would greatly benefit from DBS's PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System.
Foreman Osia Williams completed this project along with his team, and they successfully installed 2 PowerBrace™ I-beams that will correct bowing and prevent further cracking over time. DBS consulted with the owner upon completion of the first project to come back a second time in order to install waterproofing materials.
The owner of this property can now think clearly about potentially reselling the property now that they are assured the foundation is sound, sturdy, and stabilized.
