Halo Water Proofing has been the Amherst area's go-to call for Waterproofing because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.
We're Halo Water Proofing — a WI-licensed, fully insured waterproofing outfit that's spent years learning exactly how water moves through Amherst-area foundations, and exactly how to stop it.
We don't send apprentices to figure it out on your dime. Every Amherst job is run by a technician who has done this exact repair dozens of times, with a supervisor who signs off before we call it finished.
Call now and talk to an actual technician, not a script. We'll walk you through what's likely going on and get a crew scheduled.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Water problems rarely announce themselves all at once — they usually show up as small clues first. Here's what our Amherst technicians hear about most often before an inspection.
Odor is often the first sign Amherst customers notice, well before any visible water shows up.
Stair-step cracks in block foundations are a common early warning sign we see across Amherst-area homes.
It's easy to dismiss efflorescence as harmless dust, but it actually signals active moisture movement through the wall.
A sump pump that never stops cycling is often working harder than it should, or is undersized for your Amherst lot's water table.
This is one sign we tell Amherst customers not to wait on — wall movement tends to progress rather than resolve on its own.
These signs upstairs are often the last clue Amherst homeowners notice, even though the moisture issue started in the basement months earlier.
From an emergency pump swap at 2 a.m. to a full exterior drainage system, this is the work we do in Amherst every day.
Storm season in Amherst, WI means our emergency line gets busy fast — we triage calls by severity so active flooding at your Amherst address jumps the queue ahead of routine inspections.
Call for Emergency Service →Freeze-thaw cycles in Amherst, WI push existing cracks wider every winter, which is why we recommend sealing them before they become an active leak rather than after.
Get a Crack Assessment →A tired or undersized sump pump is the #1 reason we get emergency calls in Amherst after heavy rain. We install battery backup units so your basement stays dry even if the power goes out mid-storm.

We start with a phone conversation, not a script — enough to know whether this is an emergency dispatch or a scheduled inspection.

Our crew completes the work, cleans up the site, and walks you through the warranty coverage on what was installed.
We quote the job in writing after inspecting it in person, so what you agree to on the phone or at your door is what shows up on the final invoice.
