The City of Delafield had 7,185 residents in the 2020 count by the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, and the separate Town of Delafield had 8,095. The two share the lake-and-river country of Lake Country along the Bark River and the chain of lakes east of Oconomowoc.
Houses range from older village streets near the middle of the city to large lakefront homes with walkout lower levels. A walkout is a practical problem in water work: the lower level has a door to the grade, so rain and meltwater can come straight in, and the crew checks that door and the grade outside it before anything else.

What does a walkout lower level do to a water problem?
A walkout lower level has a door at grade, so water running across the yard can enter the room without ever reaching the foundation drain. The crew checks the threshold, the grade outside the door and any window well, then measures the floor and the bottom of the wall to see how far the water has gone.
Lakeshore properties generally depend on sump pumps for their lower levels, and a pump that cannot keep up in a wet spell is the usual reason a finished walkout room is damaged. A technician checks the pit and the discharge line before deciding on the repair.
How do the older village streets differ from the lakefront?
The older village streets have houses that were built before modern foundation waterproofing, so the water tends to come through the walls rather than through a door. A basement in one of these houses is treated as an old-wall drying job, with the readings on the framing deciding how much has to come out.
Lakefront houses and village houses share one thing: the water usually arrives from the ground. The crew's first question is always where the water entered, because that decides whether the fix is at the wall, the grade or the pump.
