Exterior waterproofing Delafield homeowners actually trust
When a basement wall keeps leaking, the water is getting in from the outside, so that is where the real fix belongs. Exterior waterproofing seals the wall on its outer face and drains the water away at the footing. It stops the water before it ever reaches your Delafield basement. It is the most thorough way to keep a basement dry, and it earns its keep on a chronic leak or a finished space you want to protect.
Delafield sits in Lake Country on the Bark River, close to Nagawicka and Nemahbin lakes. The ground here is rolling glacial moraine, and near the lakes the water table runs high, so groundwater presses straight against basement walls. Older homes downtown and along the lakefront often have block or stone foundations, and those take on water at the cove joint where the wall meets the footing and through gaps in the masonry. Patch the inside and the block still stays wet, so the water finds another path.
We are based at 2128 Easy St in Waukesha, a short drive from Delafield, and Nick, Luis, and our own crew have sealed these walls since 1998. During a free inspection we find where the water is truly getting in, dig along that wall, seal it, and drain it, then back the work with a lifetime transferable warranty. One homeowner had fought a wet wall for years; we sealed the outside, and their basement stayed bone-dry straight through the next spring thaw.
