Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Mondovi, WI had lived in this home for 15 years. They knew that the basement would consistenty leak in a few areas from the foundation. Fearful that the water issue would only get worse, causing mold and other damage to the basement, they contacted DBS. 

DBS Design Specialist Rich Johnsen visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the foundation support and a waterproofing system. DBS Production Manager Kevin Steffey was the foreman on the job. He and his crew installed our WaterGuard® french drain system along the perimeter of the basement. This system directs all the moisture to a new TripleSafe™ sump pump. 

In order to combat addtional humidity in the basement, the crew also connected a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to the sump pump. This will pull moisture out of the basement, keeping humidity levels consistent. 

The installation was successful and provided a solid solution to pooling water in the basement!
