A homeowner in Hovland, MN reached out to DBS regarding the crawl space of their home. The area was old and dirty, and also prone to moisture. This was concerning for the owner, as it can cause damage and 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 need to have CleanSpace® installed to act as a vapor barrier for the area. Foreman Casey Healy and crew laid the vapor barrier throughout the space to prevent any further moisture issues.
This customer was experiencing a sagging crawl space and reached out to us to figure out the best option for their home. After one of our design specialist assessed the problem, it was determined that implementing new support beams and a SmartJack system was the best solution to their problem.
After figuring out what timeframe works best for the customer's schedule, a foreman and crew began work. After the beams and SmartJack system were installed, the customer was able to appreciate a level floor and left the experience with a WOW mindset!
This 1950's Superior, WI home had been in the family for years and concerns were building over cracks and bowing in the foundation walls, leading to water and moisture build-up. The homeowners had work done by another company in the past but turned to DBS in hopes of a permanent solution for these ongoing foundation issues.
DBS Design Specialist Cole Lekander visited the home and performed a free, no-obligation estimate for our Waterproofing and Wall Support services.

Our foreman Zach Jorenby and crew installed 8 PowerBrace™ beams in total.
