Finding reliable contractors

How to find quality contractors and maintenance workers?

I currently have 1 flip and two tenant turnovers going and am having hard time finding anyone.

I'm located in St. Louis metro area.

Any recommendations -

a new way I am finding contractors is actually through FB Marketplace. go to your local buy/sale pages and you'll usually find a few contractors posting their work. offer to take them out for beers (on you of course) and let them know what you're looking for and if they can help. I do this when trying to find someone I want repeat biz from and never knew a contractor to turn down free beers. if you're just looking for a 1 time work guy/girl then can skip that part. good luck!
