When Water, Fire, and Storm Damage Happens in Shorewood, We're Ready.
Whether you're looking for restoration, cleaning or construction services in Shorewood, we're here to help 24/7.
In 1900, the village of East Milwaukee was incorporated. It occupied an area of roughly 1.5 square miles between Lake Michigan and the Milwaukee River, the Milwaukee City border on the south, and the recently incorporated village of Whitefish Bay to the north. In 1917, the name was changed to Shorewood to further distinguish the village’s identity. SERVPRO is Here to Help these homeowners with any issues arising from water, fire, mold, or storm damage resulting from the often unpredictable Midwest weather.
The US government purchased the future village’s land from the Menomonee Indians in 1832. Sawmills were built along the river in 1835, but they closed shortly after the economic depression of 1837. From 1876 until 1909, the Milwaukee Cement Company extracted limestone from the bluffs along the Milwaukee River north of Capitol Drive.
Starting with Lueddemann’s-on-the-River, a series of beer gardens and amusement parks were located in the southwest corner of the village from 1872-1916. Present-day Hubbard Park is located on part of the property.
From 1895 until 1911, the Milwaukee Country Club operated near the lake before moving to River Hills. Large architect-designed homes were built on the lake bluff, while new residential subdivisions were platted. During the 1920s, as many as 200 homes were constructed a year, some the work of noted architects including Alexander Eschweiler and Russell Barr Williamson. Many single-family homes, duplexes, and apartment buildings remain prime examples of period revival, craftsman bungalows, and prairie-style architecture.
Shorewood’s public schools were influenced by Progressive educator John Dewey. The first building of the village’s unique multi-building high school campus opened in 1925. Lake Bluff Elementary School was built in 1924, one of the first designed with open space classrooms and flexible desks.
During the Great Depression, Shorewood benefited from having “shovel ready” plans. Federal New Deal funds were used to build the auditorium building on the high school campus, “rustic style” buildings in Hubbard Park, and the Atwater beach pavilion (demolished in 1987).

What our Shorewood
customers are saying
Thankful!
Very impressed with the high level of professionalism and competency overall. Very happy with the clean-up and assistance in the repair process and being very accommodating to my busy schedule. My house is cleaner than I would have done! They did an amazing job at cleaning, our project manager was excellent in every aspect of his job. Highly recommend!
I was very pleased with the quality of the work, the pleasantness of the workers and the constant concern for my satisfaction.
They arrived at my house before the fire was even out and explained everything. Every interaction with the staff, whether at the shop, on the phone, via email or at my house was always professional, yet was personable answering all my questions and concerns in a timely manner.
I cannot thank the SERVPRO staff enough for everything they have done these past 8 months. It is certainly something I hope to not go though again, but if I or anyone else I know needs this type of service, I will highly recommend this team to get the job done. I appreciate their patience in dealing with the barrage of family members asking lots of questions. Etta, Andy, Rob, Russ, Veronica, Bill, Ron, Shaun, Jessica, the fantastic cleaning ladies, the outside contractors and so many more that I have never met gave their full attention to my situation, while handling other clients as well. I am grateful to SERVPRO for being able to restore this old home and make it safe for my family again.
Overall blown away by the process and customer experience. Thank you.
Project proceeded and was completed on schedule and in a professional manner.
