Before & After Photos

This project in Saint Paul, MN needed a professional and permanent solution in order to stabilize the structure. 

A DBS Design Specialist visited the location and conducted a free, no-obligation estimate to find the best solution. After a careful inspection, a quote was provided and our push pier system was recommended.

George Barry led the installation of this project with help from a team. Together, the team excavated the area around the base of the home and installed the push piers. These piers are driven down to native, stable soil using hydraulic pressure. Once this stable area is reached, the pressure travels upwards and pushes the foundation up to the level it and restore it back to the original position. 

This project is now complete and the structure is safe and secure.

This basement in Saint Paul, MN was experiencing stage 1-2 wall failure. A small bow had begun in the wall, but since the owner acted quickly and contacted DBS, they prevented any further severe damage.

Design Specialist Rich Johnsen visited the home and conducted a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a careful inspection, Rich provided a quote for our CarbonArmor® Wall Defense Straps.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of the project with help from a team. Together, the team applied these strong straps to the bowing wall. These straps are made out of woven material that is ten times stronger than steel. The straps hold the wall in place and prevent any further inward movement and bowing.

This homeowner can now relax knowing their home is stable and secure. 

The owner of this home in Saint Paul, MN reached out to us with concerns regarding problems in their basement.

One of our Design Specialists went out to the home to run a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist created a quote for our Basement Waterproofing and CarbonArmor® straps.

Our crew installed the CarbonArmor® straps along the walls in the basement in order to permanently stabilize the foundation. They also installed WaterGuard® french drains around the perimeter to help keep the basement drier. The drains will collect runoff from the footing sog the home and direct the water into a new sump pump that our crew installed.

Now that the basement has been repaired, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind!
