Poor John's Plumbing has been serving Lee's Summit homeowners for 35+ years. Licensed in MO, flat-rate pricing, and honest work you can count on.
Lee's Summit is one of our most requested service areas in Missouri. We serve all of Lee's Summit including the downtown area, Summit Woods, Lakewood, and the newer developments along 50 Highway.
Lee's Summit is one of the Kansas City metro's most desirable suburban communities, with a housing stock that ranges from established neighborhoods near downtown LS built in the 1960s-1980s, to significant new construction in northern and eastern Lee's Summit developed over the last 20 years. The city's proximity to Jordan Creek and other waterways means some neighborhoods have higher groundwater tables — relevant for sump pump performance during heavy spring rains.
Lee's Summit sits in Jackson County, MO and is served by Missouri-side water utilities. Water hardness is moderate to moderately high, consistent with the broader KC metro. Homes in the older downtown and Strother Park areas frequently have cast iron drain systems and aging copper supply lines that are reaching replacement age. The newer Summit Woods, Lakewood, and M-150 corridor developments are primarily PVC and copper with more recent installation dates.
