Branson Roof Inspection That's Actually Free (And Honest)
Stop Guessing. Start Knowing What's Really Happening Up There.
Our Branson roof inspection services help homeowners from Table Rock Lake to Branson Hills get honest answers about their roof's condition—without the sales pressure that makes you want to fake your own death, the scare tactics designed to panic you into buying, or the contractors who "find" problems that mysteriously require immediate $20,000 solutions. We're transforming roof anxiety and uncertainty into clear information with free inspections that tell you the truth about what you need, when you need it, and what can wait (even if that truth means we don't make money today).
We've helped 150+ Taney County homeowners who called expecting a sales pitch but got honest information instead.
Why Does Every "Free" Inspection Come With a Sales Pitch?
You need to know what's happening with your roof. Maybe you noticed a leak, maybe a storm just rolled through, or maybe you're just being a responsible homeowner checking on things. So you call for a "free inspection," and suddenly you're trapped in a high-pressure sales situation.
The contractor climbs up, comes down looking concerned, and tells you that your roof is in "critical condition" and needs immediate replacement—like today, maybe yesterday, definitely before the weekend or your house will collapse into the earth's core. They've got photos of every worn shingle, every tiny issue magnified into an emergency, and a quote ready to go because they knew they'd be selling you a new roof before they even showed up. Then there's the opposite problem: contractors who do quick drive-by "inspections" from the ground (because actually climbing up is effort), tell you everything's fine when it's not, and leave you with problems you don't know about until they become expensive disasters. You just want honest information about your roof's condition. Is that really too much to ask? Apparently yes, because most roofing contractors see inspections as sales opportunities, not service. They're not there to inform you—they're there to close you.
Honest Roof Inspections Without the Sales Theater
I've heard too many stories from Branson homeowners who got "free inspections" that were actually just aggressive sales pitches. Contractors finding "emergencies" on 10-year-old roofs that were fine, or missing real problems because they didn't actually inspect—just looked from the driveway.
That's not how Big Chief Roofing does inspections. The Chief protects the tribe, and protecting you means giving honest information even when that information doesn't benefit us financially. We'll climb on your roof, inspect every section thoroughly, take photos of everything, and tell you the complete truth—even if that truth is "your roof is fine and you don't need to spend money yet". We'll show you what needs attention now, what can wait, and what's normal wear vs. actual problems. You'll get clear information so you can make smart decisions about your home, not fear-based manipulation designed to panic you into buying. Our free Branson roof inspections come with our Big Chief Guarantee—honest assessment or your money back (which is easy since it's free, but you get the point).

Every Type of Roof Inspection You Might Need
General Roof Inspection
Not sure what's happening with your roof? We'll inspect thoroughly—shingles, flashing, valleys, vents, overall condition—and tell you exactly what we find. We check for leaks, damage, wear patterns, potential problems, and give you a complete assessment with photos. Whether your roof is fine, needs minor repairs, or needs replacement, you'll know the truth. No scare tactics, no manufactured emergencies, just honest information about your roof's condition so you can plan accordingly.
Storm Damage Inspection
After hailstorms, wind storms, or severe weather hits Branson, we inspect for damage insurance should cover. We check for hail impacts, wind damage, missing shingles, damaged flashing—everything insurance companies look for. We document everything with photos and measurements, help you understand if you have a claim, and assist with the insurance process if needed. Free inspection even if there's no damage—we'd rather tell you that you're fine than sell you something you don't need.
Pre-Purchase Home Inspection
Buying a home in Branson? Get the roof inspected before closing. We'll assess the roof's condition, estimate remaining life, identify any issues that need addressing, and give you information to negotiate with sellers if needed. A $0 inspection can save you thousands if it reveals problems before you buy. We inspect for buyers throughout Taney County and provide detailed reports you can share with real estate agents and sellers.
Leak Detection Inspection
Ceiling leak but can't find the source? We'll locate it. Leaks are tricky—water travels, so where it's dripping inside isn't always where it's getting in. We inspect thoroughly, find the actual source, and tell you what's needed to fix it properly. Sometimes it's simple (flashing repair), sometimes it's more involved (valley replacement), but you'll know exactly what you're dealing with and what it'll cost to fix.

Your Typical Roofer
"Free inspection" with asterisks. If you don't buy from them, suddenly there's a $200 "inspection fee" they forgot to mention.
Every inspection finds "critical issues" requiring immediate replacement. Your 8-year-old roof? Ancient and failing, apparently.
Quick look, vague verbal assessment, nothing in writing. You have no idea what they actually inspected or found.
High-pressure sales pitch before you can escape. "This price is only good today" and other manipulation tactics.
They miss damage insurance would've covered, or "find" damage that doesn't exist to manufacture claims. Either way, you lose.
Drive-by inspection from the ground with binoculars maybe. They're guessing about half of what they tell you.
Roof Inspection Questions Everyone Has
Is your roof inspection really free?
Yes. Completely free, no strings attached. We don't charge "inspection fees" that magically disappear if you hire us, and we don't pressure you to buy to avoid charges. We inspect, tell you what we found, and let you decide what to do. If you hire us eventually, great. If not, that's fine too—we'd rather earn your trust with honesty.
How long does a roof inspection take?
Most inspections take 30-45 minutes depending on your roof's size and complexity. We're thorough but efficient. You'll get a complete assessment without us taking up your entire day.
Will you try to sell me a new roof?
Only if you actually need one. If your roof is fine or just needs repairs, that's what we'll tell you—even though we make less money. We're not here to manufacture problems or scare you into buying. We're here to give you honest information so you can make smart decisions about your home.
What do you look for during a roof inspection?
Everything. Shingle condition and wear, flashing around chimneys and vents, valley condition, missing or damaged shingles, signs of leaks, proper ventilation, overall structural integrity. We take photos of everything and document what we find so you have a complete picture of your roof's condition.
Should I get my roof inspected even if I don't have problems?
Yes. Annual or bi-annual inspections catch small problems before they become expensive disasters. After major storms, inspections document damage for insurance claims. Before buying a home, inspections prevent expensive surprises. Routine inspections are like dental checkups—prevention costs less than emergency repair.
