Arrow Tight Waterproofing exists because too many property owners in Lena were getting patchwork fixes instead of real diagnosis. Our crews are licensed in WI, carry full liability coverage, and are trained to find the actual water path before recommending anything.
Our technicians carry thermal cameras and calibrated moisture meters to every inspection, because guessing at a foundation problem wastes your money and our reputation. That's the standard for every job in Lena, residential or commercial.
We keep detailed job records for every property in Lena we've serviced, which means if you call back in three years with a question about your system, we can pull the exact specs of what was installed rather than starting from scratch.
IICRC-certified technicians on every job, no exceptions
licensed in WI with full liability and workers' comp coverage
Thermal imaging and calibrated moisture readings before every quote
Written, transferable warranty on all completed systems
Direct-employee crews — never subcontracted out
Warning Signs
How to Tell If your Lena property Needs Attention Now
Most foundation failures don't start as floods — they start small, and they're easy to miss until the damage compounds. Here's what our technicians look for on every inspection in Lena.
01
Efflorescence on Basement Walls
We see this most often on walls that look completely dry to the touch — the salt deposit is evidence of past water movement, not current dampness.
02
A Musty Smell That Won't Go Away
If a dehumidifier only masks the smell instead of fixing it, there's an active moisture source somewhere in the structure.
03
Cracks Along the Wall-Floor Joint
Cracking where your floor meets the foundation wall is rarely cosmetic; it's typically the first visible sign of pressure building against the wall.
04
A Sump Pump That Never Stops Running
A sump that runs nonstop during rain is a system working past its design limit, not a system doing its job well.
05
Bowing or Leaning Foundation Walls
Measuring wall deflection with a level is one of the first things we do on any inspection where bowing is suspected, since the degree of lean changes the recommended fix.
06
Rust Stains Bleeding Through Concrete
Iron doesn't rust without sustained water contact, so rust bleeding through concrete is a reliable indicator of ongoing penetration.
07
Peeling Paint or Soft Drywall Near the Floor
Paint and drywall absorb moisture vapor before liquid water ever becomes visible, so bubbling or soft spots near the baseboard are an early-stage signal, not a late one.
08
Cold, Damp Floors Above a Crawl Space
Persistent cold-floor complaints in homes with a crawl space are one of the most common calls we get, and encapsulation resolves them far more often than a furnace repair does.
Core Services
What Arrow Tight Waterproofing Handles in Lena
From emergency response to full commercial systems, here's the range of Waterproofing work our crews handle in Lena.
01
Emergency Water Intrusion Response
Active flooding doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we — our emergency line in Lena is answered live, 24 hours a day, with crews dispatched to stop the immediate entry point first.
We carry the equipment needed to control an active situation immediately, then scope the permanent fix once the emergency is under control.
Residential waterproofing in Lena covers everything from a single crack injection to a full-perimeter drainage retrofit, scoped after a real inspection.
We size every residential system — pump horsepower, pipe diameter, gravel bed depth — to your specific property rather than a generic template.
For property managers in Lena, we coordinate around occupied units and business hours, minimizing disruption while still delivering a full waterproofing scope.
We provide the same written, itemized proposals for commercial clients as residential ones, with the added documentation many property managers need for ownership or insurance records.
Beyond drainage, our crews handle foundation crack injection, carbon fiber wall reinforcement, and structural crack classification for properties in Lena showing signs of settlement or lateral pressure.
We're upfront when a problem needs structural engineering input beyond what waterproofing alone can fix, rather than selling a repair that won't hold.
A waterproofing system is only as reliable as the pump moving water out of it — we size, install, and upgrade sump systems in Lena to match actual groundwater volume rather than defaulting to whatever's in stock.
Battery backup and monitored alarm options are available on every pump we install, so a power outage during a storm doesn't leave the system unprotected.
These aren't marketing lines — they're the specific practices that separate a repair that lasts from one that doesn't.
Upfront, Itemized Pricing
The number on your proposal is the number on your invoice — materials, labor, and scope are itemized before any work begins, with no surprise line items added mid-job.
Fast Local Dispatch
Response time isn't an afterthought for us — it's a scheduling metric we track and staff around, not just a marketing line.
Satisfaction Backed in Writing
If something about the completed work doesn't meet the scope we agreed to, we return and correct it under the warranty terms, in writing.
Commercial-Grade Materials, Every Time
We install the same membrane specification, pipe schedule, and pump ratings on residential jobs that commercial contracts require — never a downgraded consumer-grade substitute.
Diagnosis Before Recommendation
A diagnosis-first approach costs us more time per estimate, but it's the reason our repeat-callback rate is a fraction of the industry average.

Call or Request an Inspection
Reach our dispatch line in Lena any time — we'll ask what you're seeing and schedule a free on-site inspection, often within 24 hours.
02
On-Site Diagnosis
We document every visible entry point and pressure indicator during the visit — this is what the eventual proposal is built around.

Written, Fixed-Price Proposal
If the proposal includes options — say, interior versus exterior drainage — we'll walk through the tradeoffs so you're deciding with full information.
04
Installation & Warranty Documentation
We also walk you through basic maintenance for whatever was installed, so you know what to check twice a year to keep the system performing as designed.

"Had a cove joint leak that two other companies just patched without explaining why it kept happening. Arrow Tight Waterproofing's technician showed me the moisture readings and traced it to hydrostatic pressure, then installed drain tile that's held through every storm since.Would recommend them without hesitation."
R. — Homeowner, Lena
★★★★★
"Called at 11 PM with active water coming in during a storm. Live person answered immediately, crew was on-site within the hour, and they had a temporary pump running before starting the real diagnosis.Would recommend them without hesitation."
K. — Emergency Client, Lena
★★★★★
"We manage a small multi-unit building and needed the work scheduled around tenants. They coordinated everything cleanly and the commercial-grade membrane they used has zero callbacks two years later.That's the kind of fix that actually holds up."
T. — Property Manager, Lena
★★★★★
"Appreciated that they didn't just sell us a package. The inspection actually found the real problem — a bowing block wall — and the carbon fiber reinforcement plus crack injection fixed it properly instead of just sealing the surface.Would recommend them without hesitation."
M. — Homeowner, Lena
★★★★★
"Sump pump had been cycling nonstop for weeks before we called. They correctly diagnosed it as undersized for our actual water table and upgraded it — no more constant cycling, and it's kept up with two heavy storms since.Would recommend them without hesitation."
D. — Homeowner, Lena
★★★★★
"We're a small property management company and needed drainage work done across three units without disrupting tenants. Arrow Tight Waterproofing scheduled around occupied hours, communicated clearly with residents, and the itemized invoice matched the original proposal exactly.Exactly the level of service we expected."
L. — Property Manager, Lena
FAQ
Waterproofing Frequently Asked Questions
Response time depends on urgency — active flooding is treated as top priority, while non-urgent inspections are usually booked within the week.
We never bill hourly or open-ended. The fixed price you approve in writing is the price on the final invoice, barring a documented scope change you sign off on first.
Emergency response covers active flooding, sudden sump failure, and burst pipe water intrusion — we stabilize the situation first, then scope the permanent repair.
If interior fixes haven't held or the wall shows active exterior deterioration, exterior waterproofing is usually the better long-term answer — we'll tell you honestly which applies.
We document every job with photos and moisture readings you can submit for any claim, regardless of what your policy ultimately covers.
Timeline depends entirely on scope — we give you a written schedule estimate as part of the proposal so there's no ambiguity going in.
A technician inspects the property directly with thermal imaging and moisture meters before any number is put on paper.
Warranty terms are documented and registered to the property address, with a clear process for filing a service claim if anything comes up.
Coverage extends across Lena — call +1-866-476-1348 to confirm your specific address, though it's almost certainly within our service area.
For the initial inspection, yes — we need access to the affected area and it helps to walk through what we're seeing together, though the visit is usually under an hour.
A proper fix starts with identifying the pressure source or entry mechanism, then installs a system rated to handle it permanently, not just plug the spot you can see.
Some clients ask us to speak directly with their adjuster about scope and materials, and we're glad to when it's useful for a claim already in progress.
