Questions about St. Louis

Who supplies water in St. Louis?

The city treats water from the Mississippi River at its Chain of Rocks plant and from the Missouri River at its Howard Bend plant. Billing and water quality questions go to them. For leaks inside your home, a plumber is the right call.

Who do I call about a power outage or gas smell?

Electricity comes from Ameren Missouri and natural gas from Spire. Report outages to the utility. If you smell gas, leave the building first and call from outside.

Do repairs in St. Louis need a permit?

Many do, including most electrical, plumbing, heating and roofing work. Permits are handled by the Building Division, and the pro doing the work usually pulls them.

How do I check a contractor here?

Missouri has no statewide plumbing license, so plumbers are licensed by the city where they work. Missouri offers an optional statewide electrical contractor license, but cities can still require their own licenses. Ask for license or registration details and look them up before work starts.

Can I use this if I rent?

Yes, but many repairs are the landlord's responsibility. Tell your landlord in writing, and check with them before booking work on the building.

We are a referral service, so the pro you speak with sets the schedule and the price. Ask your questions before you agree to anything.
