Im right outside of DC. Soil is clay but needs work to dry as mentioned.
Yes brick is above grade.
At the base of the wall when they did the perimeter drain they did that dimple stuff. But I would rather get the water away from the foundation.
I'd like to paint the wall from outside but I'm unsure that can happen...I may just try to dry out the ground around the basement and hope that does the trick.
Currently the french drain feeds an electric sump in the basement floor.
I should note that the walls are not wet to the touch. They feel fine so really by painting the inside I would not be stopping any leaks more like sealing out scent and probably some wicking?
