Before & After Photos

After meeting us at the Duluth Home Show, homeowners in Beaver Bay, MN reached out to DBS regarding the crawl space of their home. Crawl spaces with exposed earth are prone to fluctuating humidity, creating moisture and mold issues. This was concerning for the owner, as it can cause damage to the home and foundation as well as raise health issues. 

A DBS Design Specialist visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the crawl space encapsulation service. It was determined that the crawl space would have CleanSpace® installed to act as a vapor barrier for the area. The DBS Foreman and crew laid the vapor barrier throughout the space to prevent the spread of moisture, and also added TerraBlock™ insulation to the space. Finally, a SaniDry™ dehumidifier will curb moisture levels due to temperature fluctuation in the space. 

The homeowners were happy with the work done and now a clean and dry crawl space. 

This homeowner reached out to DBS due to ongoing water problems in their basement. They needed to sell their house as soon as possible and were keen to fix the water issues to make it more attractive to potential buyers. The water mainly originated from one corner of the basement, starting at the shower and flowing towards the existing sump pump location. Our Design Specialist visited the property and recommended the installation of a new sump pump and BrightWall paneling to help reduce water in the basement and direct it towards the sump pump. The main aim was to keep the basement dry and prevent any further water damage before putting the house on the market. Once our team went in, the installation was quick and easy. They conducted a final walk-through with the homeowner, who was very pleased with the results!
