Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Maple, WI was facing problems with wall stabilization and cracks in their basement. The wall had shifted from previous repair over a decade ago; unable to repair this problem on their own, the owner turned to DBS for a solution. 

Design Specialist James Miller assisted this homeowner in a free no-obligation estimate to find the right solution for this home. James suggested the installation of a GeoLock™ Wall Anchor System. 

Foreman Osia Williams led the installation along with a team. Together the team installed 3 Geolock™ Wall Anchors allowing for stabilization for the whole wall. This is done by connecting a steel rod to plates that are connected and located inside the home to an earth anchor that is installed in the soil outside of the home. This connection will allow for the system to be adjusted to stabilize and straighten out the wall. 

With this newly stable wall, this homeowner can live comfortably in their healthy home.

A homeowner in Minnetonka, MN was experiencing issues with their basement foundation wall. The concrete block wall was starting to bow, and the homeowner was unsure if this would be a problem down the road. After they reached out to DBS and received a free, no-obligation estimate, it was determined that wall would indeed need stabilization using several PowerBrace™ units. The PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System is exceptional in adding support to foundation walls, and can even work to straighten them back to original form. Photos from the progression of the project can be viewed here. 

When the homeowner in Minnetonka, MN noticed their wall showing signs of distress, they turned to us for help. As you can see in the before photo, the lack of support was a major concern. Our team quickly moved in with a solution, installing our GeoLock™ Channel Anchor system. The after photo shows the transformation, providing the wall with the stability it desperately needed. This is just another day for us at DBS, delivering a remarkable experience and dependable, lasting results.

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. 

The owner of this home in Chanhassen, MN reached out to us looking for help with their settling home. They noticed a few cracks forming around their foundation and gave us a call.

One of our Design Specialists went out to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist created a quote for our pier system.

One of our Foundation Repair crews went to the home to install the system to lift and stabilize the home. The piers will help prevent the home from further settlement, providing the homeowner with peace of mind!
