Pitch drives both the roof area and the labor. Steep pitches (9/12 or more) slow the crew down, and low ones need extra underlayment care. Our Oklahoma starting value is 5/12.

A full asphalt shingle replacement in Oklahoma City, OK comes to roughly $9,310 to $14,190 for a typical 1,940 sq. ft. single-story house. That covers a 5/12 roof of about 2,192 sq. ft. - 21.9 squares - with tear-off of the current shingles, new materials and the crew.

Oklahoma City, OK Roofing Costs by Material

Below, one roof gets priced in nine different materials at Oklahoma City, OK rates. Read the estimate column as your budget and the range as the band most quotes should fall inside.

These figures are not separate guesses. They run through our roof replacement calculator, metal roof calculator and flat roof calculator with the West South Central regional factor, which lands pitched roofs 13% below the U.S. average.

Price per Year of Roof

The real cost of a roof is price divided by the years it lasts. Hover a bar: metal costs more up front and less per year.

Pricing Variables in a Oklahoma City, OK Re-Roof

Most of the spread between roofers comes from a handful of line items. For a 21.9-square roof at Oklahoma City, OK prices:

• Old shingles. Removing the existing layer accounts for about $2,720 of the price. A hidden second layer adds roughly $1,770 more.
• Design. Simple gables are the cheapest to cover. Figure about $1,120 more for a hip roof, or about $1,900 more when dormers and valleys cut it up.
• Building height. Same roof, two stories up: about $810 more, mostly labor and safety staging.
• Skylights. Each skylight installed or replaced during the job adds about $310.
• Bad wood. Damaged decking is the most common mid-job extra. Agree on a price per sheet before work starts.
• Flashing and ventilation. Reusing old flashing saves a little now and causes leaks later. Gutters are a separate trade line; the gutter cost calculator covers them.
• Paperwork. Local permit fees and dumpster rental vary; ask each roofer to list them rather than add them later.

Put every quote on one sheet with the same rows - removal, underlayment, ice barrier, flashing, ventilation, decking, permit - and the real differences show.

How Oklahoma Weather Ages a Roof

A roof in Oklahoma lives in Climate Region 4: about 95°F on a typical summer afternoon, about 50°F on a winter afternoon, and about 27°F on a winter night. Below are the stresses that matter most for a Oklahoma roof, and what to ask for because of them.

Where Shingles Live Longest: the Climate Bell

Asphalt life peaks in the moderate middle (Region 3) and falls toward BOTH ends of the map above - cold regions destroy shingles with ice dams, hot ones bake them. Note the middle columns: shingles marketed as “lifetime” are good for about 25 real-world years at best - Oklahoma is Region 4. Hover any column.

Pricing a Metal Roof in Oklahoma City, OK

Metal roofs come in a few families, and they do different jobs. The prices below are for a typical 1,940 sq. ft. single-story house in Oklahoma City, OK.

• Standing seam: $26,700 to $40,700. The panels interlock at upright seams, and the clips let the metal grow and shrink with the weather. Budget about $19,950 over architectural shingles for this roof.
• Steel shingles: $20,030 to $30,530. Aluminum shingles: $22,150 to $33,760. Pressed metal pieces shaped like shakes, slate or ordinary shingles. They interlock, so they handle cut-up roofs with valleys and dormers where long panels waste metal. Aluminum will not rust, which counts near salt water. Steel is stiffer and dents less.
• Stone-coated steel: $27,270 to $41,560. A steel base under a granule finish. You get the tile look at a small part of the weight of real tile.
• Copper: custom quote only. A copper roof is hand work by a sheet-metal specialist, and it is priced far above standing seam. It never needs paint and weathers to a green patina. Few homes cover the whole roof with it; dormers and entry roofs are the usual places.

Big hailstones may leave dents in metal that still sheds water perfectly. Check the impact rating, and read how the warranty handles purely cosmetic dents. Metal pays off for long-term owners. If a move is likely within a few years, architectural shingles usually give better value. Want a firmer metal number? Try the metal roof calculator with your measurements.

Scheduling Your Oklahoma City, OK Roof Job

Avoid peak summer if you can - near 95°F, shingles mark easily and crews work shorter days. Late fall to spring suits roofing best.

When storm crews arrive, slow down. Verify insurance, licensing and a local address first, and get the full scope in writing.

Pricing Low-Slope Roofs in Oklahoma City, OK

Membrane roofing covers what shingles cannot: flat porches, garages, additions and row-house tops. On a 1,940 sq. ft. footprint:

• EPDM rubber: $13,750 to $17,860. A rubber membrane with a long track record. It comes in large rolls, so a small roof may need no seam at all. Choose it where the roof is shaded or out of sight and the winters are hard.
• TPO, 60-mil: $11,840 to $15,370. White plastic sheet, welded at the seams. It stays light for years and keeps the rooms below cooler. Quality varies by maker more than with the other two, so ask which product the bid names.
• PVC, 60-mil: $14,310 to $18,590. The premium white membrane: welded seams, a strong fire rating, and good resistance to puddles and chemicals. It fits roofs that carry foot traffic or hold water after a storm.

Ranked by price for this home, TPO is cheapest, EPDM is next, and PVC costs the most. Each figure covers new polyiso board under the membrane and stripping the existing layer. Small flat areas cost more per square foot, since edges, flashing and setup barely shrink. Make sure a new flat roof drains completely; trapped water and winter freezes are a bad combination. Price your exact membrane, insulation thickness and drains with the flat roof calculator.
