Cohasset, MN's Leading Foundation & Concrete Repair Company

When a homeowner from Cohasset, MN reached out to us here at DBS, they had a beaver system in place, and water continued seeping through their basement floor, making the idea of a dry, usable space seem like a distant dream. When our Design Specialist went out to the property, they meticulously examined the existing setup and found that the installation of our WaterGuard system, coupled with the TripleSafe Sump Pump and an IceGuard for added freeze protection, would turn the tide against their water woes. Our dedicated production team embarked on installing the WaterGuard along the perimeter of the basement, a solution ingeniously designed to capture floor and wall joint leaks. Central to the system, the SingleSafe Sump Pump was placed to ensure peace of mind during heavy downpours. Perhaps, the most gratifying for us was integrating the IceGuard system, a subtle yet potent line of defense against freeze-thaw cycles that can cripple the best-laid drainage plans in our cold Minnesota winters.

Recently, a homeowner in Cohasset, MN faced a common challenge. With plans to sell their home soon, they aimed to ensure every aspect was in prime condition for a smooth sale. A particular concern was their crawlspace, crucial for making a positive impression on potential buyers. Recognizing the importance of a proactive approach, they turned to DBS, where our dedicated Customer Care team promptly scheduled a home inspection.

Our experienced System Design Specialist assessed the situation thoroughly during the visit. It became clear that significant steps were necessary to ensure a healthier, more appealing crawlspace. Our solution was both simple and effective: installing the SingleSafe™ Sump Pump, IceGuard®, and SaniDry™ Sedona. Our skilled production team, led by a capable foreman and proficient installers, undertook the task of transforming the crawlspace.

The SingleSafe™ Sump Pump was chosen for its robust protection against flooding, featuring triple safeguards against water overflow. Installing the IceGuard® system ensured uninterrupted water diversion during winter, safeguarding against potential clogs. Finally, the SaniDry™ Sedona efficiently eliminated damp air, fostering a dry and fresh environment.

Our team not only expertly installed these products but also ensured the area was impeccably cleaned post-installation, leaving no trace of their work behind. The results were nothing short of remarkable. The homeowner was not only impressed by the simplicity and efficiency of our solution but also relieved knowing their crawlspace was now in optimal condition.

This assurance not only paved the way for a smooth home sale but also ensured that the new homeowners would inherit a crawlspace that was healthy and attractive. Our commitment to delivering exceptional service and achieving outstanding results was evident throughout the process.

This homeowner in Cohasset, MN, who was facing a challenge many in our community can relate to - a wet basement that, especially after heavy rains. Understanding the stress and havoc water issues can wreak on a home, they reached out to us at DBS for a reliable solution. Our process began with a free, no-obligation inspection from our Design Specialist Henrik, who thoroughly inspected their basement to pinpoint the primary source of water intrusion. Following the evaluation, we recommended a trio of solutions: our WaterGuard© interior drainage system, IceGuard© to prevent backups due to frozen discharge lines, and our super-efficient SingleSafe© Sump Pump to effectively manage and remove the water. In implementing the solution, our skilled team arrived ready to tackle the problem head-on. We started with the installation of the WaterGuard© along the basement's perimeter to catch any incoming water, funneling it efficiently to the SingleSafe© Sump Pump. This sump pump, the guardian of dry basements, is designed with three levels of protection to handle the most intense rainfalls, ensuring the basement stays dry. To combat the harsh Midwest winters, adding the IceGuard© system was critical; it ensures that even if the sump pump discharge lines freeze or get clogged, water can still escape away from the foundation. Thanks to our production team, led by Foreman Nik, the outcome for the homeowner was precisely what we strive for: a dry, functional basement no longer prone to water damage.

Our experienced foreman and installers diligently implemented each component of the new system. The WaterGuard® ensured no water could accumulate in the living area, the SingleSafe™ provided a dependable method for water expulsion, CleanSpace® added an extra layer of moisture protection, and IceGuard® safeguarded against freezing conditions—common in our region.

A homeowner in Cohasset, MN reached out to DBS regarding multiple services. The basement of the home had an issue with leaking water. Aside from that, the crawl space of the home was old, dirty, and wide open. This can lead to cold drafts and unwanted outside chemicals to enter the home. In need of a solution, the homeowner had a Design Specialist from DBS come to the property and provide a free, no-obligation estimate to provide the best possible fix. It was concluded that the basement would need to have WaterGuard® installed around the perimeter, and the crawl space was to be encapsulated with a CleanSpace® vapor barrier. WaterGuard® is a drainage system that is placed below the concrete floor of a basement, and catches and extracts unwanted water from leaking in to the area. CleanSpace® is a matting that encapsulates the entirety of the crawl space, and acts as a barrier between the rest of the home and what lies within the crawl space. The overall result of the large project was a big success, and the homeowner can now enjoy a more safe and comfortable living environment. 

DBS received a call from a homeowner that the services surrounding their home were sunken and needed to be raised. There were multiple areas surrounding the home sinking, so DBS sent our Design Specialist, Jace Alli, to the home to create a solution. Jace’s proposal recommended DBS installs our PolyLevel® service around the perimeter of the home in seven different areas to support and maintain the home. By using our PolyLevel®, the sunken slabs would be lifted to the previously leveled concrete, also making sure the home is raised and solid at that level. We’ve included some photos of the settlement sinking around the home, showing the concrete slightly lower than the area of the home.
