Foundation Repair Photo Album: Leaking and Bowing Eau Claire, WI Basement Repaired by DBS

This rental property in Eau Claire, WI had an old foundation. In order to maintain property value and provide a safe and comfortable home for its residents, the owner wanted to permanently stabilize the basement. DBS Design Specialist James Miller visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate to solve the water and foundation issues in this home. After a thorough inspection, he suggested both interior waterproofing products and wall repair systems to restore this home. DBS Foreman Joe Harris led a crew to install both systems. They began with basement waterproofing, installing a WaterGuard® drain system, a CleanSpace® vapor barrier on the walls and a TripleSafe™ sump pump. From there they installed both PowerBraces™ and GeoLocks™ to secure the bowing walls.
