Before: Our client in Holyoke, MN faced trouble with their three-season room - it was unstable, making the aesthetics suffer and raising concerns about future property value. As visible in the 'before' photo, the sono tubes were improperly cut and tied into the floor, demanding urgent attention for safety and usability. Our Appointment Center promptly scheduled a free, no-obligation inspection with Design Specialist James. After: Our production team, led by Foreman Jordan, installed our adjustable Helical Pier© system, ensuring the room was not only stabilized but noticeably improved in appearance and functionality.
The owner of this home in Askov, MN reached out to DBS looking for help with bowing walls in their basement.
A DBS Design Specialist went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist recommended our Geo-Lock® Wall Anchor System.
Foreman Jacob Nustad led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed Geo-Lock® anchors on the inside of the basement walls in order to permanently stabilize the basement walls. The Geo-Lock® works to lock the anchors from the outside through soil as there is another anchor buried in the soil outside parallel to the one on the inside.
Now that the basement walls have been stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.
The owner of this home in Knife River, MN reached out to us looking for help with their sinking crawl space foundation.
One of our Design Specialists came 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 SmartJack® System.
One of our crews came out to install the system. Together they installed crawl space support pillars underneath the beams to permanently stabilize the foundation. They also installed CleanSpace® water vapor barrier and sprayed polyurethane foam in the crawl space to waterproof the area.
Now that the crawl space has been repaired, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.
When this customer first experienced foundation problems they had a home-made solution that had not helped to permanently stabilize or straighten the wall. We used Geo-Lock anchors to stabilize the wall and straighten it over time. The first photo is mid-way through the project. After another anchor was added and both were tightened, the large crack in the wall closed up.
This is a great example of how the use of PowerBraces™ can help straighten and strengthen a wall over time. System Design Specialist, Royce Bunn visited this home and proposed the use of six PowerBraces™ to fix the bowing wall. The homeowner had tried various other solutions over the years to fix the bowing wall, but nothing had helped. They even had another foundation wall installed to help fix the bowing exterior wall. The homeowner now rests easy as the experts at DBS have found a permanent solution to fix this problem.
