Foundation Repair Photo Album: Waterproofing and Foundation Support for Leaking Superior, WI Home
This homeowner saw our advertisement in the newspaper and reached out to DBS when water was leaking through the foundation of their home and into their basement.
DBS Sales Manager Royce Bunn visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for our waterproofing service. It was determined that a partial waterproofing system would be installed, paired with foundation support. A DBS Foreman and crew excavated soil around the base of the home and added a Sentry Seal membrane to seal off any cracks in the foundation from the outside. The crew also installed SilverGlo™ insulation to further protect the home's foundation.Inside the home, a CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System was used to stop the wall from any further movement. Additionally, a high-performing SuperSump® Premier Pump System was installed to pump water up and out of the home. The homeowners were happy with the work done and no longer have water issues in the basement!
