Milwaukee’s Basement Flood Crisis — And How CertaPro Painters Can Help You Rebuild
Posted on August 27, 2025
In August 2025, Milwaukee and its surrounding communities were hit by what meteorologists are calling a “once-in-a-thousand-years” flood. With over 14 inches of rain falling in less than 24 hours in some areas like Wauwatosa and Menomonee Falls, basements across the region were transformed into waterlogged disaster zones. From caved-in walls to submerged foundations, the damage has been staggering—and recovery is just beginning.
