Your Trusted Basement Waterproofing Company in Iron River, WI

In Iron River, WI, a family faced a growing concern with their cherished recreation slab, which had been the backdrop for countless memories of outdoor fun and family gatherings. Over time, however, the slab began to experience significant instability, slowly settling and shifting in a way that threatened not only the safety of the space but also the priceless moments it had hosted. As seen in the "before" photo, the slab was visibly destabilizing, creating an uncertain future for the area that had once been a source of joy and relaxation. 

With safety now a priority, the family knew they needed a reliable solution to restore the integrity of the space, ensuring it could continue to serve as a safe and welcoming environment for their loved ones. That's when they turned to us at DBS for expert advice and support. After assessing the situation, we recommended our Push Pier system—a proven and effective method of stabilizing and lifting sinking or settling slabs.

The Push Pier system works by driving steel piers deep into the earth, anchoring the foundation and providing the necessary lift and support to restore the slab to its original position. This approach offers long-lasting stabilization and is perfect for situations where slabs have been compromised by shifting soil or other environmental factors. With our team’s expertise, we were able to address the problem efficiently and effectively, ensuring the slab was safely and securely restored.

As shown in the "after" photo, the transformation was immediate and impressive. The slab was lifted back to its rightful position, stabilizing it and providing a solid foundation for continued use. The family could now enjoy their outdoor space once again, with confidence in the safety and durability of the area. What was once a growing safety concern had been expertly resolved, allowing the homeowners to return to their cherished recreational space without worry.

This project highlights the core of our mission at DBS: to deliver peace of mind to homeowners through durable, expertly executed repairs. By addressing the root cause of the problem with our Push Pier system, we not only restored the slab’s structural integrity but also ensured the family could continue to create memories in the space for years to come. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction shines through in every job we undertake, and this transformation serves as a testament to our dedication to helping homeowners protect their homes and the memories they hold dear. With DBS, you can trust that your home stands strong, no matter what challenges arise.

This homeowner in Iron River, WI, had a common issue in colder climates: troublesome ice dams on their roof.
