McCoy Sales Company is located in Kansas City, Kansas and represents numerous commercial plumbing lines for all of Kansas and the western half of Missouri.

Joe McCoy is still the driving force behind McCoy Sales and although the surroundings may have changed, the philosophy remains the same.

According to Joe, they are both too hard to find, and you invest too much time in them, to let them get away. Of our combined 216 years of experience in the plumbing industry, 164 of those years have been with our agency.
