Exterior waterproofing addresses the source directly: excavation, membrane application, and footing drainage designed to keep water away from the wall in the first place, permanently.

Four commitments that separate a properly trained exterior waterproofing crew from a generalist showing up with a truck and a hope.
We don't treat exterior work as a bigger version of interior injection — it's a distinct discipline requiring different technique and specialized equipment.
Local crews understand your region's soil composition and typical frost depth, both of which affect excavation planning significantly.
No surprise charges for unexpected utility lines or rock encountered during excavation — those are flagged and discussed first.
We apply rubberized asphalt or sheet membrane rated for permanent below-grade exposure, not a consumer coating that degrades in a season or two.
Each service below is scoped specifically to exterior waterproofing, not a generic waterproofing menu with the name swapped in.
We excavate along the affected wall section down to the footing, prep the surface, and apply a rubberized membrane rated for permanent below-grade exposure. This is the most thorough exterior fix available and typically carries the longest service life.
A footing drain intercepts groundwater at the base of the foundation and carries it away before it can build pressure against the wall.
Soil sloping toward the foundation sends every rainfall straight at your basement wall, regardless of how good the membrane below is.
We install well drains tied into the footing drain system with a clear cover to reduce debris.
Sealing from the exterior addresses hydrostatic pressure at the point of entry rather than relying solely on interior injection.
Four steps, start to finish — from your call to a backfilled, regraded foundation wall.
Describe what you're seeing from outside — pooling water, visible staining on the wall, saturated soil — and dispatch routes a crew equipped for exterior assessment.
Technicians walk the full property perimeter before recommending excavation, checking grading and downspout placement.
Pricing is itemized by excavation footage and membrane material, in writing before any digging begins.
We document the completed system with photos before backfilling for your records.
Real feedback from New Holstein-area customers who called us for exterior waterproofing.
"They found our footing drain had completely collapsed after thirty years — explains why interior fixes never fully worked before."
"Regraded the whole side yard and extended our downspouts as part of the job. Haven't seen water against that wall since."
