Express Plumbing has been serving Chesterfield since 1999. We're based in Lake Saint Louis, which puts us about 25–30 minutes from most Chesterfield addresses depending on where you are and traffic. Jim's a licensed master plumber in St Louis County and he's worked on everything from high-end homes to retail spaces and office buildings. We've handled emergency repairs, water heater replacements, bathroom remodels, and commercial buildouts all over Chesterfield. When you've been working in Chesterfield this long, you know the local systems, you understand what commercial properties need, and you know how to get the job done without wasting time or running up costs.
From quick fixes to full installs, we do the work that keeps your water running.

Burst pipe? Overflowing toilet? Water spraying from under the sink? We're on our way. Most emergencies happen when you least expect them, and we've seen it all — from frozen pipes in January to sump pumps that quit during a storm. We carry parts on the truck so we can fix most problems same-visit instead of making you wait three days for a callback.

If your shower's running cold or you hear banging sounds from the basement, your water heater's telling you something. We install gas and electric units, and we'll walk you through what size makes sense for your house. Most installs take half a day, and we haul off the old one so you don't have to figure out where it goes.

Building an addition or finishing a basement? We handle the rough-in plumbing before the drywall goes up. That means running supply lines and installing vents so everything's ready when you're set to install fixtures. We work with your contractor's schedule and make sure inspections pass the first time.
A dripping faucet wastes more water than you think — and that sound drives you crazy at night. We fix leaks, replace cartridges, and install new faucets in kitchens and bathrooms. Most repairs take under an hour. If it's shot and needs replacing, we'll tell you straight instead of patching something that'll break again next month.
When heavy rain hits Lake Saint Louis, your sump pump better be working. We test pumps, replace failed units, and install battery backups so you're covered even if the power goes out. A working sump pump is the difference between a dry basement and a mess you'll be cleaning for weeks.

Adding a gas line for a new stove, dryer, or tankless water heater? We run gas pipe to code and test every connection. Gas work isn't something to DIY or trust to someone without a license. We're bonded and insured specifically for this, and we pull permits when they're needed.
Call and We'll Give You Straight Answers
When you call (314) 807-8460, you're talking directly to us. We ask what's happening and tell you honestly whether it needs immediate attention or if it can wait. Since we're about 22 miles away in Lake St Louis, we can usually get to Chesterfield same-day — often within an hour or two for emergencies. We'll tell you when to expect us, and we show up on time.
We Diagnose and Quote Before We Start
We show up with a fully stocked truck and figure out what's wrong. Whether it's a residential or commercial property, whether it's a leaking pipe or a failed water heater, we explain the problem in plain language and tell you what it'll cost to fix. If you're good with the price, we get started. If we find something unexpected, we stop and talk to you before doing more work.
We Fix It Right and Test It
Once we start working, we don't leave until it's done properly. We use quality parts, follow code, and test everything before we're finished. Most repairs take a couple hours. Bigger jobs like water heater replacements or commercial work take longer. When we're done, it's fixed right and we clean up the mess before we leave.

Water heater replacements in both residential and commercial properties. Chesterfield has a mix of older and newer buildings, and we see systems failing in properties that are 15–20 years old.
