Teague Roofing Plus was founded in 1971 by Kenneth Teague in Springfield, Missouri. Owner Josh Tessmer carries that same commitment forward today. We are based at 6149 US-60 in Springfield, just 12 miles north of Nixa, and our crews are here regularly.
Nixa is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in Missouri. The city grew from 19,022 residents in 2010 to 23,257 in 2020, making it the second-largest city in the Springfield metro. That growth means a large number of homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s, in neighborhoods like Sugar Creek and Nixa Commons, are now entering their prime roof replacement window. Shingles installed in 1998 or 2002 have been through a lot of Christian County weather.
Christian County sits in the same NWS Springfield warning area as Greene County and carries the same very severe hail zone rating. Freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, and hail events all shorten a roof’s life here. We handle full roof replacements in Nixa from start to finish, including permits, material selection, tear-off, and cleanup.
Teague Roofing Plus is not a franchise. We are not a storm-chasing crew that rolls into Nixa after a hail event and disappears when the work dries up. Josh Tessmer lives and works in this region, and our company has served Southwest Missouri homeowners since 1971. We have completed over 5,000 roofs across SW Missouri.
We are an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, a designation fewer than 1% of roofing companies in the country ever earn. Owens Corning reviews our work, vets our business, and confirms we meet their standards every year. We are also BBB A+ rated since December 2019, members of the Home Builders Association of Springfield, and Nextdoor Neighborhood Favorites in 2022 and 2024. We are MO-licensed and carry full liability and workers’ compensation insurance.
When you call 417-883-7663, you reach real people who know Nixa. Not a call center. Not an out-of-state contractor. That is the difference between hiring a local company with roots here and hiring someone who found your address on a storm damage map.
Christian County shares the same very severe hail zone designation as Greene County to the north. On September 18, 2025, a severe thunderstorm warning named northwestern Christian County, including the Nixa area, with 60 mph wind gusts and quarter-size hail confirmed. Hail that size leaves bruising on shingles that you simply cannot see from the ground or a ladder. Only a trained eye on the roof catches it.
If your Nixa home took storm damage, the clock on your insurance claim starts the moment the storm passes. A storm damage inspection from our team documents everything before conditions change and your claim window closes.
Every free inspection starts on your roof, not in a sales pitch. We climb up, check every plane, examine the flashing around your chimney and vents, look at the ridge caps, and photograph what we find. You get a written report with photos so you can see exactly what we see. If your roof still has years of life left, we will tell you. If it needs replacement, we explain why in plain language and give you a written estimate. No pressure. No obligation. Just the facts about your specific roof.
Most Nixa homeowners deal with a roof insurance claim once or twice in their lives. Our team handles them every week. After a storm, we inspect your roof at no charge, document every piece of damage with dated photos, and schedule a time to meet your insurance adjuster on site. We walk the roof with them to make sure nothing gets missed or undercounted.
We document the damage, meet your adjuster on your roof, and make sure the claim reflects the full scope of what your home needs. Learn more about how the process works in our guide to insurance claim assistance in Southwest Missouri. There is no extra charge for this service.
Nixa’s rapid growth means the city has a large share of homes built between 1993 and 2010. Those roofs are now 15 to 30 years old. Even a roof that has never visibly leaked can be failing from the inside out. Granule loss from summer heat and repeated hail impact work quietly until a single wet winter exposes what has been building for years underneath the shingles.
Illustrative scenario: A homeowner in the Sugar Creek subdivision notices soft spots on shingles after back-to-back spring storms. The roof was original to the 1998 build. Teague inspects, documents granule loss and hail bruising across multiple planes, meets the insurance adjuster on site, and completes a full tear-off and Class 4 replacement in two days. Read our post on when to repair versus replace your roof for help making this decision on your own home.
Christian County sits in a very severe hail zone. That fact alone should drive your material choice when replacing a Nixa roof. We strongly recommend Class 4 impact-resistant architectural shingles for homes here. Class 4 is the highest impact-resistance rating for asphalt shingles, tested to handle large hail. In many cases, upgrading to Class 4 shingles can also lower your homeowner’s insurance premium, so check with your insurer before finalizing your material choice.
As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we install their full line of architectural shingles, including options rated for high wind and impact resistance. We never install standard 3-tab shingles on any job. Every system we put on a Nixa home includes proper underlayment, ice and water shield at the eaves, drip edge at every roof edge, and fully sealed flashing around all penetrations. We also install standing seam metal roofing systems for homeowners who want the longest possible lifespan from their roof.
Nixa is one of the more straightforward cities in Christian County when it comes to re-roofing permits. According to the City of Nixa’s building permit guidelines, a standard shingle-over-shingle re-roof does not require a permit. However, any structural work, new construction additions, or material type changes may require one. We recommend confirming your specific project scope with the city before work starts.
You can reach Nixa’s planning department at 417-725-5850 or [email protected] with questions about your project. Teague Roofing Plus confirms all local requirements before any job begins. If a permit is needed, we handle it. You do not deal with the paperwork or the approval process. We take care of it so you can focus on everything else.
Nixa sits just south of Springfield along the US-65 corridor, and the weather here is just as punishing on roofs. Southwest Missouri sees more than 100 freeze-thaw cycles each winter. Water finds its way into small gaps in flashing or under cracked shingles, freezes overnight, expands those gaps, and repeats the process for months. Valley flashing failure and shingle cracking near the eaves are two of the most common problems our crew finds on Nixa roofs.
Summer heat adds another layer of wear. Mid-to-upper 90s from July through August grind away at the granule coating on asphalt shingles, exposing the mat underneath and shortening the roof’s effective life. When you combine heat, hail in the spring, and ice in the winter, a Nixa roof faces serious stress in all four seasons. Our 2026 storm season prep guide covers steps you can take before severe weather hits your neighborhood.
A full roof replacement with Teague Roofing Plus starts with a free inspection, not a sales pitch. We document what we find, walk you through your material options, and give you a written estimate. If a storm caused the damage, we handle the insurance paperwork and meet your adjuster on site before any work begins.
On replacement day, our local crew strips everything down to the wood decking. We check every board for soft spots, rot, or water infiltration. Any damaged sections get replaced before new material goes on top. Then we install ice and water shield along the eaves, synthetic underlayment across the full deck, drip edge at every edge, and your new Owens Corning architectural shingles to code. After the last shingle is in place, we run magnetic nail sweepers across your yard, driveway, and walkways. We finish with a full walkthrough so you can see the completed work before we leave your property.
From permits to materials to storm claims, here is what Nixa homeowners ask us most about roof replacement.
For most standard re-roofing jobs in Nixa, no permit is required. According to the City of Nixa's building permit information, a basic shingle replacement does not trigger a permit requirement. However, if your project involves structural changes, a change in roofing material type, or any new construction component, a permit may be needed.
We always recommend verifying your specific project scope with the city before work starts. You can reach Nixa's planning department at 417-725-5850. Teague Roofing Plus confirms all requirements before any job begins and handles all permits when they are required. You do not deal with the paperwork.

The answer depends on the age of your roof, the extent of the damage, and how many layers of shingles are already on it. A repair often makes sense on a newer roof with isolated damage. A full replacement is typically the better call when shingles are 20 or more years old, when hail has bruised multiple planes, or when the underlying decking shows moisture damage.
In Nixa, many homes built in the mid-1990s to early 2000s are now at or past the point where replacement makes more financial sense than continued repairs. Our free roof inspection gives you a clear answer with no pressure attached. Our blog post on repair versus replacement also walks through how to think through this decision before you call.
Christian County carries a very severe hail zone designation, which is the highest risk rating. Hail strips granules off shingles and bruises the mat underneath without leaving marks you can see from the ground. Over time, that hidden damage lets moisture work in and cuts years off the roof's life.
Nixa also experiences more than 100 freeze-thaw cycles each winter. Water gets into small cracks, freezes, expands, and widens those gaps over and over again. Summer temperatures in the mid-to-upper 90s then dry out and shrink the shingle material. That seasonal cycle stresses every layer of your roof system year after year.

For most Nixa homes, we recommend Class 4 impact-resistant architectural shingles from Owens Corning. Class 4 is the highest impact-resistance rating for asphalt shingles, built to handle large hail. In a very severe hail zone like Christian County, that level of protection makes a real difference. Class 4 shingles may also qualify you for a discount on your homeowner's insurance premium, so it is worth asking your insurer before choosing materials.
We install the full line of Owens Corning architectural shingles, including their Duration and TruDefinition series. We never install standard 3-tab shingles on any Nixa home. For homeowners who want the longest possible lifespan, standing seam metal roofing is also available. As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we match the right product to your home, your budget, and your insurance situation.
Nixa homes face hail, freeze-thaw cycles, and summer heat every single year. If your roof is aging out or took storm damage, the time to find out is before the next big storm arrives. We will come take a look at no cost to you. No pressure. No obligation. Just an honest assessment from a team that has been replacing roofs across Southwest Missouri since 1971.
