Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A basement in Duluth, MN was experiencing structural issues with the foundation. The old concrete walls were beginning to shift, which was worrying for the homeowner, as this can cause further damages to the household. In need of a solution, they reached out to DBS for help. After thorough inspection, it was decided that the best fix to the issue would be to install the GeoLock® Wall Anchor System, as seen in the photo. These galvanized steel anchors work to create a pulling, stabilizing force on the wall, which can help shift the wall back to the original positioning. 

A homeowner in Hermantown, MN was experiencing some issues with the deck of their home. The structure had started heaving and would mess with the windows on the porch. In need of a solution, they reached out to DBS and had a Design Specialist provide them with a free, no-obligation estimate. It was determined that the deck would need a set of helical pier units installed to help stabilize the structure. Our crew went in and successfully installed the piers, and the homeowner can now enjoy a more stable deck.

These homeowners in Duluth, MN were hoping to finish a guest bedroom but needed to address the wall stabilization issues first. They trusted DBS with the project.

Design Specialist James Miller assisted these homeowners in a free, no-obligation estimate in order to find the best solution for the home. After a careful inspection, it was decided that our CarbonArmor® Defense Straps would be the perfect solution for this home's needs.

Foreman Osia Williams led the installation of this project, along with a team. Together, the team used the CarbonArmor® defense material to stabilize the wall and prevent any further movement. These straps are made out of materials that are 10-times stronger than steel. These materials are woven together into a fabric-like material and applied to walls to hold them in place. 

These homeowners can now finish their home renovations knowing their home is stable.
