Before & After Photos

These homeowners in Tower, MN reached out to DBS for help insulating and waterproofing their crawlspace.

The crawlspace was previously unfinished and water, mold, and dirt were built up making it unusable for storage. A DBS Design Specialist went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. A DBS Foreman and their production crew cleaned and leveled the ground before installing our CleanSpace® waterproofing barrier in the crawlspace. 

This family now has a clean, useable and odor-free crawlspace area year-round!

Homeowners in Tower, MN had issues with water leaking into their basement after heavy rains. As evidenced in the before photo, this basement had incurred water damage, causing them to remove the a good amount of damaged drywall. Looking for a permanent solution for the water issue, they contacted DBS.

DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the waterproofing system. A DBS Foreman and crew installed our WaterGuard® System along the perimeter of the basement, that will direct all moisture to a new TripleSafe™ Sump Pump. This pump system has a battery backup that provides several hours of additional protection against water damage if your primary pump fails for any reason, such as during a power outage.

DBS Production Manager Kevin Steffey was the foreman on this project, installing all of our basement repair products with his crew.

We recently helped a family in Tower, MN who were concerned about their basement. They noticed that their basement was frequently cold and humid, with an unpleasant smell that suggested the presence of mold. They wanted to ensure 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, efficiently installing these products and 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. After the installation, the homeowners immediately noticed a difference. The musty smell dissipated, and the basement's environment became noticeably warmer and more comfortable.
