Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Duluth, MN was experiencing a crawl space issue with their home. The area was inadequately supported with old wooden posts, and over time, this can cause settling within the surface and sagging for the floors above. In need of a fixture, they reached out to DBS and had a Design Specialist come out to give them a free, no-obligation estimate for a solution. It was determined that we would install the SmartJack® System along with the crawl space with a supplemental support beam across the sagging floor joists. The results of the project can be seen here. 

These homeowners in Duluth, MN reached out to DBS for help stabilizing their bowing basement walls. They were getting worse with time and the cracks allowed water to enter the home.

DBS Design Specialist James Miller went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home James recommended installing PowerBrace™  wall support beams to permanently stabilize the bowing foundation. PowerBrace™ support beams immediately stabilize the bowing foundation and are benchmarked yearly by our service team to bring walls back to level. This system is installed with a 75-year fully transferable warranty. This home was repaired by DBS Foreman Nick Burley and his production crew.

This home is now healthy, safe, and comfortable!
