Duluth, MN basement walls stabilized with PowerBraces

This Duluth, MN homeowner had noticed some signs of foundation settlement in his home. He found that over time cracks developed around his windows and doors as well as an uneven floor. He decided to call DBS to get an expert out to evaluate his current foundation situation.
