Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Aitkin, MN was concerned with how far the foundation wall has moved. They wanted a permanent and professional solution, so they reached out to DBS for help.

James Miller assisted this homeowner with a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful and thorough inspection, James recommended our PowerBrace® Wall Bracing System.

Foreman Fred Bozvay led the installation of this project with help from a team. Together, the team attached a bracket to the ceiling joist and attached the bottom of the beam to the concrete footing. This beam will provide support so the wall will not move any further and it can also be adjusted over time to straighten the wall back to its original position. 

This homeowner can now relax knowing their home is safe, secure, and stable.
