The owner of this cabin in Palisade, MN wanted to stop worrying about pipes freezing underneath in the wintertime when they are not there. Looking for a solution, they reached out to DBS.

A DBS Designs Specialist went out to the cabin to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After the inspection, they generated a free quote for the cabin owner for SilverGlo™ insulation panels.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they installed the SilverGlo™ panels on the vertical walls of the crawl space and air sealed the area with ZypFoam™. The panels are made of graphite-infused rigid foam insulation that will prevent frost from reaching the foundation footings.

Now that the crawl space has been properly stabilized, the cabin owner can have peace of mind without having to worry about their piped freezing in the winter.

The owners of this cabin in McGregor, MN wanted to repair their foundation before selling it to the new owners so that they would not need to worry about the foundation issues so they reached out to DBS.

A DBS Design Specialist went to the cabin to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the owners. After a thorough inspection, they generated a quote for our helical cabin piering system to solve their foundation issues.

Foreman Tyler Nacey led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they installed 5 helical piers to provide permanent stabilization to the cabin. Each pier bears more than the weight of the structure when installed. Once they are driven into the ground, they will never experience more than the weight of the structure, ensuring that they will provide proper support.

Now that the cabin has been stabilized, the owners and new owners can relax more comfortably knowing that the issue has been resolved.

Job Stories From McGregor, MN
Basement Waterproofing in McGregor, MN

When we were first called to assist a homeowner in McGregor, MN with their basement troubles, it became clear that this was more than just a minor inconvenience. The homeowner had recently renovated the rest of their home and set their sights on transforming their basement into a functional, dry space. However, their plans were constantly disrupted by leaks during rainfall and the spring melt. Understanding the homeowner's frustrations and their concerns about the potential impact on their home's resale value, we approached the problem with a dual mindset of immediate relief and long-term reliability. After our homeowner scheduled the home inspection, our Design Specialist, James Miller, conducted a free, no-obligation, inspection, he outlined a tailored solution that would put an end to the basement's water woes. His recommendation included the installation of WaterGuard® for efficient interior drainage, IceGuard® to prevent backups from frozen discharge lines, and CleanSpace® liner for a moisture barrier to address the root causes of basement moisture. Our skilled production team, led by our Foreman Lee Krouse, went to the property and installed these systems with attention to quality and cleanliness. As a result, the basement was transformed into a dry and pleasant space, ready to face long Minnesota winters and rainy spells without the worry of leakage or damage. The homeowner gained peace of mind knowing their house was more appealing and valued higher in the real estate market.
