Before & After Photos

These Duluth homeowners reached out to DBS for information on waterproofing their leaky basement. They had recently moved into this home and noticed issues with mold in their basement. 

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. Foreman Casey Healy and his production team installed our WaterGuard® System along the perimeter of the basement, as well as CleanSpace® Wall Poly on the walls. The system directs all moisture to a new TripleSafe™ sump pump. The crew also installed a new discharge line with IceGuard® to prevent freezing water in the winter months. 

These homeowners were happy with the work done and now have a safe and dry basement to enjoy!

Facing freezing pipes and an uncomfortable sunroom in Duluth, MN, a homeowner contacted us at DBS for help. In the "before" photo, you can see the exposed, vulnerable crawl space that contributed to their discomfort. After installing our CleanSpace® TerraBlock™ bottom crawl space insulation, as shown in the "after" photo, we've transformed the area into a clean, well-protected space. This significant upgrade not only creates a more comfortable living area above, but it also ensures the pipes stay unfrozen year-round.

After living with basement water problems for over 20 years, this Duluth, MN homeowner decided it was finally time to put an end to the frustration.

As shown in the before photos, water intrusion had been a persistent issue. In the after photos, you can see the clean, dry, and protected basement—no more worrying about melting snow or constant shop-vac use!

This homeowner in Duluth, MN, reached out to DBS in hopes of finishing their basement to make it safer for their grandkids. Their basement is connected to the crawlspace and water was entering through the space into the basement. As you can see, the moisture had taken over their crawlspace which created an uninviting area. By installing our  CleanSpace®and spray foam for the rim joists, this solution transformed the crawlspace into a dry, usable area, as seen in the after picture. With this new space, the homeowner can now move forward with their renovation plans, ensuring a safe and inviting space for their grandkids.

Recently, we had the privilege of helping a homeowner in Duluth, MN, tackle an issue that many in our region face - a troubled crawl space. Understanding the critical role a healthy crawl space plays in the overall wellbeing of a home, the homeowner was quick to reach out to us after noticing issues related to moisture and overall dampness beneath their house. After a call with our Appointment Center, a free, no-obligation inspection was set up with our Design Specialist Jake. Our recommended solution was straightforward yet effective - the installation of CleanSpace©, a product specialized in crawl space encapsulation that's proven to work beautifully and lock out moisture to keep the crawl space dry. Our production team, led by Foreman Glen got to work, expertly handling the install process with respect to both time and the homeowner's property. They worked efficiently to encapsulate the area, ensuring not just the elimination of current damp issues but also providing a barrier against future moisture, pests, and mildew. The encapsulated crawl space not only resolved the moisture problem but also contributed to the overall air quality and energy efficiency of the house.
