What Makes Dayton Different
Dayton sits where the Great Miami River meets the Stillwater and Mad rivers. The Great Dayton Flood of March 1913 led to the dams and levees that still protect the valley, but heavy rain can still flood creeks, low streets and basements. Wet basements are the most common water problem here. A sump pump with a battery backup and downspouts that carry water away from the house prevent a lot of damage.
Severe storms and tornadoes are part of spring. The Memorial Day tornadoes of May 2019 tore roofs off homes from Trotwood to Beavercreek. After storm damage, cover any opening with a tarp as soon as it is safe and photograph everything before cleanup. Stay away from downed power lines and keep the power off in any room that took water until an electrician checks it.
Winters bring ice dams and frozen pipes, especially in older homes with thin attic insulation. Much of the housing in the city was built long before 1978, so lead paint, old plaster and asbestos in pipe wrap and floor tile are common. Test before you sand, scrape or tear anything out.

Checking a License in Dayton
Ohio has no statewide license for general contractors. The state does license plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and hydronics contractors through the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board, so ask for that license when a job includes those trades. Many cities in the area require contractors to register or be licensed locally before they pull permits, so check with your building department. Ohio has no state mold license. Ask for proof of liability insurance and whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage or mold remediation.
