Before & After Photos

Before, this crawlspace in Britt, MN, was a waterlogged worry, too daunting and damp for homeowners to tackle, depicted in the photo's grim reality. Floods forced the use of fans and shop vacs—a temporary fix for a persistent problem. Now, notice in the after photo, a transformation to a dry, inviting space. Through installing a SaniDry™ Sedona for efficient dehumidification, a CleanSpace® vapor barrier to lock out moisture, IceGuard® to prevent sump pump discharge line freezes, and a SingleSafe™ Sump Pump for unbeatable water evacuation, we've turned dread into delight. Our solution offers peace of mind, ensuring a sturdy defense against moisture, with an aim, always, to provide a remarkable customer experience and lasting relief from home water woes.

This Duluth, MN homeowner called DBS to set up a free, no-obligation estimate for her crawl space concerns. Their cabin had a lot of standing water in the crawlspace. The homeowner noticed that the floors started to sag and moisture was creeping into their living spaces. Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited this cabin and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. All excess organic material was removed and dirt was leveled under the foundation of the cabin. The foundation was then stabilized using Helical Piers. Next CleanSpace® was installed to keep moisture out permanently. The homeowners now enjoy a safe, permanently stable and clean cabin and crawlspace. 

Before our team stepped in, this Duluth home's basement was at risk of water damage, which troubled the homeowner, especially with potential sale or inheritance on the horizon. As you can see in the before photo, the challenge was clear. But scroll to the after photo, and notice the remarkable transformation! Utilizing our CleanSpace® wall system along with WaterGuard® drainage and the DoubleSafe™ pump system, we’ve secured a dry, functional basement space. Now, this homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement is protected for the long haul, echoing our commitment to providing not just immediate relief but ensuring a safe, and secure foundation for years to come.

Before our team’s intervention, this Duluth basement faced persistent water intrusion, making it a major hurdle for the homeowner's goal of converting it into a rental property. As seen in the photo, the transformation speaks for itself. By expertly installing WaterGuard® for drainage, lining the walls with CleanSpace®, adding freeze protection with IceGuard®, and completing the solution with a SingleSafe™ Sump Pump, we’ve turned a previously damp basement into a dry, inviting space ready for tenants. This is how we restore homeowners' confidence in long-lasting comfort and dependability.

A Duluth homeowner had a vision of turning a damp, unusable basement into a cozy bedroom, but moisture had other plans.

The result? A stunning transformation. As seen in the before-and-after images, the basement is now dry, comfortable, and ready to create lasting memories in its new, welcoming form.
