This homeowner in Duluth, MN was dissatisfied with her basement which had a few notable problems. Stair-step cracking had found its way along the stone block foundation and water had damaged sections of the basement. Wanting to take care of this problem and prevent it from getting even worse, the homeowner reached out to DBS, the local experts in All Things Basementy™. Office Manager, Kelsey Anderson picked up the call and was happy to help the homeowner out. An appointment was set to have System Design Specialist, Royce Bunn go out to the home for a free inspection and no obligation estimate. At the appointment, the homeowner explained her concerns to Royce. Following a thorough inspection, Royce described the best possible solution to solve her problems. The installation of a PowerBrace™ system would help with the stair-step cracks that had occurred. To prevent any further water problems, an interior waterproofing system along with a SaniDry™ dehumidifier would solve the issue. After coming to a comfortable price agreement, a date was set to have the production crew come out to perform the installation. Throughout the installation, the foreman gave updates to the homeowner on how the job was going, as well as a final walk through once the job was complete. Now finished, the homeowner was able to enjoy her basement, which was now sturdy and free of water problems.
