One other option might be to put a french drain around your foundation. Its alot of work to get it done, but they work well if done right. I did one around my garage. I dug a 12in. trench around the foundation about 20in. deep and put medium rock in the bottom. Then layed corragated pipe (with holes in it) down and covered it up with more rock. Just put a gradual drop in the pipe till it drains out to the lowest point. At the end I dug a large hole and filled it with rock, to give the water somewhere to drain. It works well!
