Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Hibbing, MN, reached out to us as their basement was unfit for storage due to water issues. Understanding their vision to reclaim and maximize their basement's potential, we introduced a three-step solution. We installed our WaterGuard system, a robust UltraSump pump, and wrapped it all up with our CleanSpace vapor barrier. After the work was complete, not only is the basement dry and inviting, but it's now fully prepared to become the useful, efficiently outfitted space the homeowner envisioned!

In Hibbing, MN, a valued homeowner faced a common springtime challenge—water infiltration in their basement, putting their plans to finish the space on hold. As you can see in the "before" photo, moisture issues were apparent, signaling a need for a prompt and robust solution.

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.
