First thing I would do is make sure your gutters are doing their job. It's also the easiest thing to do. Get some downspout extensions from the hardware store, they look like this: http://www.amazon.com/Flex-Drain-85011-Downspout-Extension-Green/dp/B000V26D44
Attach one to each downspout to get the water well away from the foundation. Then walk around your house while it's raining and look at the gutters. If some are getting a ton of water, attach more extensions, until that water is well away from your foundation.
I had this problem when I moved in, did the waterproofing thing, and then later found out that the entire north half of the roof drained to one downspout that was absolutely pouring water onto the foundation. Guess where the problem was. Extensions might've fixed it entirely.
Good.
