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.
