DBS

DBS, or DBS Residential Solutions, is a foundation and basement company in the Duluth, Minnesota area. Its listing gives 5116 Jean Duluth Road, and its site covers waterproofing, foundation repair and related home services.

The pages we read mention patented products that include push pier systems, helical anchors and tiebacks, and helical piles, and one review mentions fair pricing for helical piers. Helical work is one part of a broader foundation and waterproofing offering, and the site did not give a detailed description of the helical process.

To reach DBS, call 218-955-7945 or use the contact page. Ask whether a helical pier or a push pier is proposed for your home and why, who designs the repair, how load and depth are verified, and what the warranty covers. Its site also publishes reviews, financing information and a contact page for each office.
