Your Contractor in
La Plata, MO
Construction, electrical, plumbing, and roofing for La Plata — from century-home restorations to same-week rental turnovers.
Working in La Plata, not just advertising in it.
La Plata is a straight twenty-minute run south of Kirksville on US-63, and it has more old, well-built housing than most towns its size. Turn-of-the-century homes with real millwork and plaster walls, a brick downtown, and the Amtrak platform that still brings people through town.
That kind of housing stock rewards a contractor who won't wreck it. Opening up a plaster wall to run a new circuit, replacing a cast-iron stack without tearing out original trim, or putting a modern kitchen into a 1910 footprint takes more patience than a gut-and-drywall job. We do a lot of it, and we're licensed for the electrical and plumbing inside those walls rather than subbing it to whoever's free.
We also work for a number of La Plata property owners on the unglamorous side of the business — turnovers between tenants, water heaters, panel work, and roof replacements. Fast scheduling matters more than anything else on those jobs, and we schedule them accordingly.

La Plata questions,
answered.
Do you work in La Plata regularly?
Yes — it's a twenty-minute drive down US-63 and one of the towns we work in most often outside Kirksville itself. Estimates are free and on-site.
Can you remodel an older home without destroying the original details?
That's most of what we do here. We'll walk the house with you first and agree on what stays — trim, floors, built-ins — before anything comes apart.
Do you take rental property work?
Regularly. Turnovers, water heaters, panel work, drain repairs, and full rehabs. Tell us your date and we'll tell you honestly whether we can hit it.
