This concrete slab had sunken roughly 3/4". To quickly and efficiently get this slab back to level and fill the voids beneath the slab the owner of the home opted to use PolyLevel. By using our patented PolyLevel system we drilled a few small holes and injected our polyurethane foam underneath the slab where it expands into any voids and lifts the slab to where it needs to be.

Exterior Waterproofing in Tower, MN

Recently in Tower, MN, a homeowner reached out to us at DBS with a clear goal: to keep their basement dry now and ensure it remains problem-free for future resale. Understanding the negative impact a wet basement can have on both home value and livability, they sought our help to prevent potential issues down the line. After contacting our Customer Care team, the homeowner quickly scheduled a home inspection.

These systems are central to our approach—providing peace of mind through durable, reliable waterproofing. The SingleSafe™ Sump Pump offers three levels of protection, while IceGuard® prevents sump discharge line freezes, ensuring smooth operation even in the coldest temperatures.

Piering in Tower, MN

Recently, in Tower, MN, we had the opportunity to assist a homeowner who was increasingly concerned about the stability of their home. They started noticing loud popping sounds and observed that their sliding glass door was shifting uncomfortably—raising fears that the windows might soon break or fall out. On contacting our Customer Care team, we quickly arranged for a visit from our System Design Specialist. After a thorough inspection of the property, it was diagnosed that the root of the problem laid in the foundation. The best solution? Installation of Helical Piers. The beauty of Helical Piers is their strength in providing stability to the foundation. Acting far beneath the surface, these piers are designed to stop further shifting and settling of a home. So, our foreman and the team of skilled installers got to work. Installation day was all about precision. Our team carefully installed the Helical Piers beneath the home to provide the much-needed support. With every turn, we could see the groundwork for a secure, stable foundation being laid. And true to our mission, we left the homeowner's property tidy, ensuring no remnants of our work disrupted the comfort of their home. By the time we were finished, the popping noises were a thing of the past, and the sliding glass door sat comfortably in its place, free from the threat of shifting or cracking. This story highlights not just the innovative solutions we offer at DBS but our commitment to providing homeowners with peace of mind, knowing their homes are resting on a solid foundation.

Piering in Tower, MN

Recently, we assisted a homeowner in Tower, MN, whose house was showing troubling signs of foundation problems. The floors had started to slope, indicating that the foundation was settling—an issue no homeowner wants to deal with. After the homeowner reached out to us, our Customer Care team quickly arranged a thorough home inspection. Our System Design Specialist visited the property, assessed the situation, and recommended installing Helical Piers and the SmartJack® System to address the foundation issues. This solution was chosen to stabilize the foundation, stop further settling, and lift it back to its original position.

 

Once the plan was set, our production team, led by a dedicated foreman and skilled installers, began the work. Installing the helical piers involves drilling into the ground to reach stable soil and then connecting them to the foundation. We’ve refined this process to minimize disruption to the property and the homeowner’s daily life. As with all our projects, we ensured that the work area was left clean and tidy upon completion. The result for this Tower homeowner was a successfully stabilized foundation and noticeable improvement in the uneven floors. Our careful approach and effective use of Helical Piers provided not only a solution to the immediate issues but also long-term peace of mind. This project underscores our commitment to delivering excellent customer experiences and dependable solutions for structural problems.

Sump Pump Upgrade in Tower, MN

When a Tower, MN homeowner noticed the troubling signs of water damage, mold growth, and an unwelcome chilly, damp atmosphere in her basement, she knew it was time to take action. Understanding the importance of a healthy and safe home environment for her family, she reached out to us here at DBS for a solution. Upon receiving her call, our Appointment Center promptly scheduled a home inspection to identify the root of the problem. Our talented Design Specialist conducted a thorough inspection, unveiling the source of the humidity and temperature issues that plagued the home's basement. Drawing on this detailed assessment, a personalized solution involving the installation of our IceGuard©, WaterGuard©, and DoubleSafe© Sump Pump systems was recommended to tackle the existing challenges head-on. Our professional and dedicated production team, including a skilled foreman and expert installers, swiftly got to work. They meticulously installed the state-of-the-art systems designed to combat moisture, prevent future water damage, and ensure the basement stayed dry, warm, and comfortable year-round. The DoubleSafe© Sump Pump system, with its powerhouse design, marked the cornerstone of this transformation, capable of handling the highest volume of water with ease and efficiency. As we wrapped up the project, leaving behind a clean and fully functioning basement, the change was palpable. The once-cold basement area was now a warm, inviting space, solidifying our commitment to providing reliable, long-lasting solutions that make homes both healthier and happier places to live.

Basement Waterproofing in Tower, MN

We recently had the pleasure of helping a family in Tower, MN, who reached out to us with concerns about their basement. They were dealing with a frequently cold basement that had high humidity, and they noticed an unpleasant smell that suggested the presence of mold. Understandably, they wanted to ensure their home was a safe and healthy environment for their family. Our System Design Specialist visited their home for a thorough inspection. After diagnosing the problems with humidity and potential mold caused by water leaks and poor drainage, we recommended our trusted solution: the installation of WaterGuard for advanced drainage, IceGuard to prevent backup from frozen pipes, and our TripleSafe Sump Pump system to ensure the basement remains dry under all conditions. Our experienced installation team took care of the rest. They worked efficiently to install these products, addressing the homeowner's concerns with expertise. The WaterGuard and IceGuard systems work together to effectively redirect water away from the property, preventing leaks and ensuring that blockages from ice or snow don't compromise the basement's dryness. The TripleSafe Sump Pump offers triple protection, especially important during heavy rains or snow melts, keeping the basement dry, healthy, and mold-proof. Following the installations, the homeowners immediately noticed a difference. The musty smell dissipated, and the basement's environment became noticeably warmer and more comfortable.

Crawlspace Repair in Tower, MN

When a family in Tower, MN, reached out to us, they were looking to tackle their uninsulated and unencapsulated crawl space. An issue not only affecting their home's energy efficiency but also compromising its structural integrity with moisture and mold threats. Upon arrival, our Design Specialist diagnosed the crawl space’s woes, suggesting a tailored, effective encapsulation and insulation strategy. To wrap the crawl space in a state-of-comfort cocoon, our production team laid down the groundwork with exacting precision. The installation of the CleanSpace vapor barrier was a game-chanager, meticulously sealing off the earth from the home to ward off moisture, pests, and mold. With the SaniDry Sedana join firing, effectively keeping the area dry and healthy thereafter was spectacular – it’s like introducing a sigh of relief to the foundation of the home, fairly unnoticeable yet unmissably impactful.

Stabilizing a Cabin Using Piering System in Tower, MN

This homeowner came to DBS to save their unstable and sinking cabin. Knowing they wanted to utlilize their cabin for year round festivities, they wanted to have peace of mind that it was in stable condition. One of our Design Specialists, Mike Horvath, visited the home in order to conduct a free, no-obligation estimate to find the best solution. After a careful inspection, Mike recommended our Piering Services all round to meet the needs of their issues. 

 

After the homeowner came to an agreement with Mike on a timeframe that worked best for them and DBS, one of our Foreman, Jordan Salmi, was brought on to lead the installation of this project with help from a team. For this job, the piers are driven into the ground using hydraulic pressure. Once the pier reaches solid, stable soil, the pressure pushes against the ground and causes the piers to raise the structure. This allowed stability and true level thoughout the entire of the cabin. After thorough communication on how the job went, the cabin owners were able to use their cabin year round without any thought of their foundation crumbling or their floors sagging.
