Emergency Water Services in Dayton, Ohio
Burst pipe? Flooded basement? Failed sump pump? Water across the floor of your business?
Triton Steam Cleaning provides professional water extraction and structural drying for homes and commercial properties throughout Dayton and Southwest Ohio.
What Happened?
Tell Triton what caused the water loss and which areas of the property are affected.
What Should I Do Right Now?
The first few decisions after a water loss are about safety and stopping additional water—not trying to clean everything yourself.
Shut off the appropriate water source when you can safely do so. If the source cannot be safely controlled, contact the appropriate professional.
Do not enter water when electrical hazards, sewage, outside floodwater or another unsafe condition may be present.
Document affected rooms, flooring, walls and belongings before major cleanup begins when it is safe to do so.
Tell us where the water came from, whether the source has stopped and what areas appear to be affected.
Water Extraction and Drying Are Different Parts of the Same Response
Removing visible standing water is important, but the project may not end when the floor looks dry.
Water Extraction
Professional equipment removes accessible standing water and water held in appropriate flooring materials.

Structural Drying
Appropriate air movement, dehumidification and moisture monitoring help address moisture remaining in affected materials after visible water is removed.
See the Full Drying Process →Situations We Can Evaluate
- Flooded basements
- Burst water lines
- Plumbing leaks
- Water-heater failures
- Appliance leaks and overflows
- Sump-pump failures
- Wet carpet and flooring
- Commercial water losses
Don't Enter an Area That May Be Unsafe
Additional precautions may be necessary when the loss involves:
- Electrical hazards
- Sewage
- Outside floodwater
- Structural instability
- Unknown contamination
- Other hazardous conditions
These Aren't Stock Photos
These photos show an actual flooded school where Triton responded to remove water and address the affected areas.
Larger water losses require a coordinated response. The amount of water, square footage, materials affected and drying requirements all influence the scope of the project.
What Triton Can Do After a Water Loss
Water Extraction
Remove accessible standing water using professional extraction equipment.
Moisture Evaluation
Evaluate affected areas and materials for moisture that may remain after visible water is removed.
Structural Drying
Establish an appropriate drying plan using professional drying equipment.
Dehumidification
Use professional dehumidification equipment when appropriate to support the drying environment.
Moisture Monitoring
Evaluate drying progress rather than relying only on whether a surface looks or feels dry.
Selective Removal
When necessary, affected materials may need to be removed to access wet areas and support appropriate drying.
The Source of the Water Matters
A broken clean-water supply line and a sewage backup are not the same type of loss.
Water source, contamination, materials affected and how long the water has been present all influence the appropriate response.
- Sewage or a drain backup
- Outside floodwater
- Unknown water sources
- Long-standing water
- Electrical concerns
- Commercial chemicals or other unusual contaminants
Water Doesn't Only Damage Homes
Triton also responds to larger water losses affecting commercial and multi-family properties.
This photo shows an actual flooded warehouse project. Larger facilities can require substantially more extraction capacity, drying equipment and coordination than a typical residential water loss.
We can evaluate water losses involving warehouses, schools, apartments, offices and other commercial facilities.

What Do I Do After a Water Emergency?
Who should I call if my basement is flooded?
If standing water is present and it is safe to enter the property, contact a professional water-extraction company. Triton provides water extraction and structural drying throughout the Dayton area. If electrical, sewage or other hazards may be present, stay out of the affected area until it can be safely evaluated.
Can Triton remove standing water?
Yes. Professional water extraction is one of Triton's emergency water services. After extraction, affected materials may also require evaluation and structural drying.
What if a pipe bursts in my home?
If it is safe, shut off the appropriate water supply first. Avoid electrical hazards, document the damage when possible and contact Triton to discuss extraction and drying of affected areas.
What if my sump pump fails?
Stop additional water intrusion when possible and contact Triton. The appropriate response depends on the water source, amount of water, materials affected and any potential contamination.
Does removing the standing water solve the entire problem?
Not necessarily. Moisture can remain in carpet, pad, drywall, wood, subflooring and other materials after visible water has been extracted. Structural drying and moisture monitoring may also be required.
Can Triton handle commercial water losses?
Yes. Triton has responded to larger commercial water losses, including flooded school and warehouse environments. Contact us with the size of the property and circumstances of the loss so the required response can be evaluated.
Will Triton work with my insurance claim?
Triton can provide appropriate documentation related to the water-extraction and drying services performed. Coverage, deductibles and claim decisions are determined by your insurance policy and insurance carrier.
Do you remove wet drywall?
When necessary as part of an appropriate water-loss project, affected materials may need to be removed to access wet areas or support drying. Removal depends on the condition of the material, water source, contamination and circumstances of the loss.
Tell Us What Happened.
When you call, tell Triton where the water came from, whether the source has stopped, how much of the property is affected and whether there are any known safety concerns.
