Tulsa shares Oklahoma’s hail exposure and adds something the western half of the state largely escapes: severe ice storms. The 2007 storm remains the local reference point for what freezing rain does to trees, power lines and roofs. Two different loads, two different failure modes, one roof. This page lists roofers serving Tulsa.
What Tulsa roofers handle
Hail and wind damage, with the insurance process that follows.
Ice storm damage repair, including limb strikes and load failures.
Full replacement on asphalt shingle, the standard covering.
Impact-resistant Class 4 upgrades, discounted by most insurers.
Decking replacement on the older stock.
Tree damage repair under heavy canopy.
Licensing in Oklahoma
Oklahoma registers roofing contractors at state level, with real insurance floors.
Registration is issued by the Construction Industries Board (CIB) under the Roofing Contractor Registration Act, in force since 2010. An applicant must be an owner, partner or qualifying party of the business, at least 18, and supply proof of workers’ compensation compliance and lawful presence.
The part that matters to you is the insurance minimum:
- Residential roofing: general liability of at least $500,000
- Commercial roofing: at least $1,000,000
That is a floor the state sets and verifies. Ask to see the CIB registration and the certificate behind it — in a state that gets as much severe weather as this one, an uninsured roofer on your house is a genuine exposure.
What’s specific to Tulsa
Ice storms are Tulsa’s distinctive risk. Freezing rain accumulates on branches and roofs, and eastern Oklahoma’s heavy tree canopy turns that into limb strikes. The 2007 event caused damage across the metro on a scale that hail rarely matches. Overhanging limbs are worth assessing as part of any roof inspection here.
Hail arrives with spring severe weather. As across Oklahoma, insurance-funded replacement is common, and Class 4 shingles carry an insurer discount worth pricing.
Older housing than Oklahoma City’s newer growth. Tulsa’s stock includes substantial pre-war neighbourhoods with steeper, more complex roofs and a longer repair history — meaning layers and decking are live questions at tear-off.
Art Deco and historic districts. Tulsa retains notable historic architecture, and some neighbourhoods carry appearance controls affecting material choice.
The CIB registration and its insurance floor apply here identically — $500,000 residential general liability, verifiable.
Pricing expectations
Tulsa figures for 2026, as published by local roofing companies:
- Full replacement: $8,000–$25,000, median $12,000–$16,000 on a 1,500–2,000 sq ft home with architectural shingles
- By roof size, asphalt: 1,000–1,500 sq ft $8,000–$12,000; 1,500–2,500 sq ft $12,000–$18,000; 2,500–3,500 sq ft $18,000–$25,000
- Three-tab: $3.50–$4.50 per square foot; architectural $4.50–$6.00
- Metal: corrugated steel $4–$7 per square foot, metal shingles $8–$11, standing seam $10–$14
- Class 4 upgrade: $7,000–$10,000 more on a full roof, against an insurance discount of 15–28%
- Tear-off: $1.00–$1.50 per square foot; rotted decking $2–$4 per square foot
Tulsa has money on the table that most cities on this site do not. Strengthen Oklahoma Homes offers grants of up to $10,000 for installing wind-resistant systems — published independently on two separate Tulsa roofers’ pages — and one of them adds that FORTIFIED certification earns insurance premium discounts of 5 to 35 percent. Set against a Class 4 upgrade cost of $7,000–$10,000, a grant of that size changes the arithmetic entirely. The other Tulsa number worth knowing is the percentage deductible: wind and hail policies here commonly run 1 to 2 percent of insured value, which on a $400,000 home is $8,000 out of pocket per claim.
These are ranges local roofing companies publish for this metro rather than survey data, so treat them as a bracket to check a quote against, not a price list.
Two contract items: whether the job qualifies for a Strengthen Oklahoma Homes grant, and who is filing it, and your wind and hail deductible as a percentage of insured value, not a flat figure.

How this directory helps
Every roofer here is listed with business name, address and phone so you can verify them yourself.
Three questions sort Tulsa contractors. Ask for the CIB registration and the $500,000 liability certificate. Ask whether they assess overhanging limbs, given what ice storms do here. And ask how many layers are on the roof.
