An Eau Claire, WI homeowner contacted us after discovering a leak in the home's finished basement. After removing drywall, the owner discovered a 4-5ft crack in the foundation wall that was allowing water to leak into the home, causing damage to the wall and floor, as evidenced in the before photo.
DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. It was determined that the foundation wall did not need extensive support. Instead, and his crew installed a FlexiSpan® Basement Wall Crack System. FlexiSpan® seals the crack with a tough, yet flexible polyurethane, and then is covered with another layer of leak protecting material.
The homeowners were happy with the work done and can now have a flexible, long-lasting solution for their basement.

Concerned homeowners in Duluth, MN contacted DBS in hopes of a permanent solution for leaking in their basement. They had consistent issues with water leaking from a particular place in the basement foundation, only getting worse over time.
DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home for a free, no-obligation estimate for the best course of action. Foreman Zach Royer and his crew installed five GeoLock™ Wall Plates and Earth Anchors to the retaining wall. This system uses heavy-duty anchors in the soil connected with long galvanized rods to plates on the wall. These anchors are tightened to straighten the wall over time and provide maximum support.
