Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Grand Rapids, MN worked with DBS to correct their home's failing foundation. After that work was complete, they also decided to take steps to seal and support their crawl space with our Dr. Energy Saver services.

Sales Manager Royce Bunn was the Design Specialist on this project. After inspecting the damp crawl space, Royce recommended installing CleanSpace® vapor barrier over drainage matting, as well as a SmartSump™ to direct any water away from the space. 

The DBS Foreman and his production crew installed these products as well as 6 SmartJack® System beams to lift and support the crawl space. The installation was finished with TerraBlock™ insulation to prevent cold, damp air from entering the space. 

This home is now fully supported and will be healthy, safe, and comfortable for years to come.
