Checking a credential in Missouri
Missouri has no state plumbing board. Section 341.010 of the Revised Statutes requires a certificate for plumbers working in cities or towns of fifteen thousand or more inhabitants, and the chapter elsewhere recognizes licenses issued by any county or city operating under plumbing rules, so the office that issued one is a local office. Start here. Ask the contractor which municipality licenses them and confirm it with that office before work begins.

What that coverage looks like
Kansas City, at 71 ZIP codes, is the largest part of our Missouri footprint, and Jackson County holds 98 of the 380 we cover. A valve job needs the right cartridge in the van, so the call asks what the trim looks like and how many handles it has before anyone is sent.
How a shower valve replacement job goes
A shower that will not hold temperature is a cartridge far more often than it is a valve. The cartridge sits inside the valve body behind the tiles and can usually be drawn out through the trim plate without opening the wall. The wall comes off when the body itself is cracked, seized into the pipework, or no longer made in a form that fits.
What the call asks about shower valve replacement
- How many handles the shower has, and whether the trim plate is round or square.
- Whether the fault is temperature, pressure, or a drip that will not stop.
- The maker if it is stamped on the trim, because that identifies the cartridge.
