Is Your Roof Protecting Your Family or Putting Them at Risk?
That storm that rolled through last month left your neighbor scrambling for tarps, and now you're staring at your own roof wondering if you're next. Maybe you've spotted missing shingles after those 60 mph winds we get around the Ozarks, or you're seeing dark spots on your ceiling that weren't there before. You know you need to deal with it, but the thought of finding a residential roofing contractor you can trust makes you want to put it off just one more month.
Here's what keeps homeowners up at night: calling three different roofers and getting three wildly different prices with zero explanation why. Contractors who pressure you into decisions before you're ready, then disappear when you have questions. Companies that promise a two-day job that somehow stretches into two weeks, leaving your home exposed and your schedule in chaos. And the real nightmare—paying thousands upfront only to discover they cut corners on materials or workmanship that'll cost you even more down the road. Your home is where your family sleeps at night. The roof over their heads shouldn't be a source of constant worry.
Residential Roofing That Actually Protects Your Home and Peace of Mind
Look, residential roofing shouldn't be this complicated or stressful. I started Big Chief Roofing because I watched too many Ozarks families get burned by contractors who treated their homes like just another job number. Your roof is literally the shield that protects everything you've worked for—your family, your belongings, your investment. That deserves respect, professionalism, and someone who shows up when they say they will.
We built our residential roofing company on principles that matter: honor, integrity, and service. The Big Chief name isn't just branding—it's a daily reminder that we're here to protect and serve our community like the Native American chiefs protected theirs. From the hills around Table Rock Lake to the historic neighborhoods in downtown Springfield, from lakefront homes at Lake of the Ozarks to new construction in Bentonville, we treat every residential roof like it's covering our own family. We're the roofing company your neighbors text you about after we finish their project, saying "you've got to use these guys".

Protecting Ozarks Homes One Quality Roof at a Time
Complete Roof Replacements
Get Free EstimateYour roof has one job: keep water out and your family safe. When it's time for a full replacement, we don't cut corners or try to squeeze a few more years out of failing materials. We install Class 3 and 4 impact-resistant asphalt shingles that can handle Ozarks weather—from summer hailstorms to winter ice to those spring winds that rip through the hills. Every residential roofing replacement includes synthetic waterproof underlayment (not that cheap felt paper), ice and water barriers in valleys and eaves, proper attic ventilation to extend your roof's life, and new flashing around chimneys and vents. We use architectural shingles rated for winds up to 130 mph because Mother Nature doesn't mess around in the Ozarks. Our process is organized, efficient, and backed by both manufacturer material warranties and our Big Chief Guarantee workmanship warranty.
Storm Damage Repairs
Get Free EstimateOzarks storms don't ask permission before they damage your roof. Hail, wind, and debris can compromise your residential roofing system faster than you realize. We specialize in identifying and repairing storm damage before it turns into bigger problems like water intrusion, mold, and structural issues. Wind damage shows up as missing shingles, creased or uplifted edges, and exposed nail heads. Hail damage—especially from stones over an inch in diameter—knocks off the protective granules on your shingles, leaving them vulnerable to UV damage and leaks. We provide free storm damage inspections across Branson, Springfield, Joplin, Northwest Arkansas, and Lake of the Ozarks to assess your residential roof honestly. If you have damage, we document everything for your insurance claim and work directly with adjusters to make sure you get fair coverage. If your roof is fine, we'll tell you that too—no pressure, no scare tactics.
Roof Repairs
Get Free EstimateNot every roofing problem needs a full replacement, and we're not going to tell you it does. Sometimes you just need a few shingles replaced, flashing repaired around a chimney, or a valley resealed. We actually do residential roof repairs—unlike some companies that only want the big replacement jobs. Whether it's fixing a small leak before it becomes a big problem, replacing damaged sections after a tree branch fell, or addressing wear and tear in high-stress areas, we handle repairs with the same quality and attention we bring to full replacements. Every repair comes with our workmanship guarantee because even small fixes should be done right.
Attic Ventilation
Get Free EstimatYour residential roof is more than just shingles—proper attic ventilation is what keeps everything working together. Without adequate airflow, your attic can hit 140°F on a 90-degree day, cooking your shingles from underneath and shortening their lifespan by years. Poor ventilation also traps moisture in winter, leading to mold, rot, and ice dams that can damage your roof deck and interior. We install intake vents at the soffits and exhaust vents at the ridge to create continuous airflow that regulates temperature and moisture year-round. Proper ventilation isn't optional if you want your residential roofing investment to last—it's what separates a roof that makes it 15 years from one that hits 25 or 30.
From First Call to Final Cleanup, We Make Residential Roofing Easy
01
We Tell You What You Need, Not What Makes Us the Most Money
Schedule your free residential roof inspection and we'll climb up there to assess the actual condition. We document everything with photos, explain what we find in plain English, and give you honest recommendations. If you need a full replacement, we'll tell you why. If repairs will handle it, we'll tell you that too. You get a detailed estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline so there are no surprises.
02
You'll Know Exactly What's Happening Before We Start
We walk through your residential roofing options, discuss material choices, and explain the entire process from tear-off to cleanup. If insurance is involved, your dedicated team member helps with documentation and adjuster meetings. We answer every question—even the ones you think might sound dumb—because this is probably your first time replacing a roof and that's totally normal. We schedule around your life, not the other way around.
03
Your Property Stays Protected Throughout the Project
Before we remove a single shingle, we set up our Catch-All System to protect your landscaping, siding, and windows from falling debris. We work efficiently—most residential roofs are done in 1-3 days depending on size. Your dedicated site supervisor keeps you updated throughout the project and is available for questions. We install quality materials following manufacturer specifications, not shortcuts that'll come back to bite you in five years. When we're done, we do three magnetic nail sweeps because your kids and pets deserve a safe yard. Final walkthrough happens with you there, so you see exactly what we did and can ask any last questions.

Typical Residential Roofer
"We'll be there Tuesday" means maybe Thursday, maybe next week. Good luck getting a straight answer about delays.
You're calling and texting into the void. No one knows what's happening with your own roof.
Cheapest materials they can get away with. That felt paper underlayment from 1985. Ventilation? What's that?
Nails in your driveway for months. Damaged flower beds. Debris pile sitting there until "we get around to it".
"We have a warranty" that no one can explain. Try finding them when you need them.
Residential Roofing Questions Answered
"How much does residential roofing cost in the Ozarks?"
Residential roof replacements typically range from a few thousand to tens of thousands depending on size, pitch, material choice, and current condition. A 2,000 square foot home with architectural shingles runs different than a 4,000 square foot home with a steep pitch and multiple valleys. That's why we offer free inspections—so we can give you an accurate quote based on your actual roof, not some random number over the phone. We offer financing options because we know residential roofing is a major investment. Our estimates break down materials, labor, and timeline clearly so you know exactly what you're paying for.
"How do I know if I need residential roof repair or full replacement?"
Great question. Age is a factor—most asphalt shingle roofs last 20-30 years depending on materials and conditions. But storm damage, poor installation, or ventilation issues can shorten that lifespan. During your free inspection, we assess shingle condition, check for granule loss from hail, look for wind damage like creased or missing shingles, inspect flashing and valleys, and evaluate your attic ventilation. If 70% or more of your roof is compromised, replacement makes more sense than patching. If it's localized damage or minor issues, repairs handle it. We'll give you honest recommendations based on what your roof actually needs, not what makes us the most money.
"What's the best residential roofing material for Ozarks weather?"
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular residential roofing choice in the Ozarks for good reason—they balance cost, durability, and performance. We install Class 3 and 4 impact-resistant shingles rated for winds up to 120-130 mph, which handles our spring storms and summer thunderstorms. These shingles also resist hail damage better than standard 3-tab shingles. Premium or luxury shingles offer even more protection and can replicate the look of slate or wood shake. We pair quality shingles with synthetic underlayments that won't deteriorate like old felt paper, plus proper ventilation to extend the life of your entire residential roofing system.
"How long does residential roof installation take?"
Most residential roofing projects take 1-3 days from tear-off to final cleanup, depending on roof size, complexity, and weather. A simple ranch-style home might be done in a day. A two-story with multiple valleys, chimneys, and dormers might take three days. We give you a realistic timeline upfront and stick to it. You don't need to take off work or leave your home—though it'll be noisy while we're working because we're literally hammering on your roof. We protect your property throughout the process and do same-day debris removal so you're not living in a construction zone for weeks.
"Will you help with my residential roofing insurance claim?"
Absolutely. We work with homeowners insurance companies every single day and know exactly what documentation adjusters need for storm damage claims. We provide detailed inspection reports with photos showing hail damage, wind damage, or other covered issues. We'll meet with your insurance adjuster on-site to walk through the damage and make sure nothing gets missed. We help you understand what's covered under your policy and what your out-of-pocket costs will be. If your claim gets denied and we believe the damage is legitimate, we'll help you appeal. No one should have to decode insurance jargon alone or fight with their carrier without help.
