Roof replacement in Broken Arrow, done right and done in a day
Tear-off to the deck, rotten sheathing replaced, synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water in the valleys and at the eaves, new flashing, ridge vent — and the paperwork that earns the insurance discount.
A Broken Arrow roof gets replaced for one of three reasons: hail totaled it, it's twenty-plus years old and the granules are in the gutters, or a buyer's inspector flagged it and the sale is waiting. Whichever it is, the job is the same and it starts with a tear-off to the deck. We don't roof over an old layer, even where it's allowed, because the old layer hides the soft decking that every tree-shaded 1980s roof in this town has at the eaves and in the valleys, and because a second layer voids most shingle warranties and adds weight the trusses weren't drawn for.
What goes back on is the same on every job: replaced decking where it's rotten (priced per sheet, shown in photos), synthetic underlayment instead of felt, ice-and-water membrane in every valley, around every penetration and along the eaves on the north side where ice storms build dams, new drip edge, new pipe boots and flashings cut into the mortar at the chimney, six nails per shingle for the wind rating, a continuous ridge vent with matching soffit intake, and starter and cap shingles from the same line as the field. Most homes are done in a day, the yard is swept with magnets twice, and you get the manufacturer's warranty registered in your name along with the Class 4 certification if you chose it.

Questions we get about roof replacement
How long does a roof replacement take?
One day for most homes under 35 squares; two for big two-story roofs with a lot of valleys or a second layer to remove. We don't leave a roof open overnight — if weather's coming, we stage the tear-off to what we can dry in.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Broken Arrow?
It depends on the scope of the job — the City of Broken Arrow issues residential building permits through Community Development (918-259-2400), and the rules for a straight re-roof versus one that replaces decking differ. We check for your address before we start and pull whatever's required, and it's in the price.
Should I go Class 4?
In Tulsa County, almost always. The upcharge is $2,000 to $4,000 on a typical roof; the wind-and-hail discount most Oklahoma carriers give runs $150 to $500 a year, and the shingle survives hail that would put a standard roof back on a claim with another deductible. See the Class 4 guide.
What about a FORTIFIED roof?
It's the same shingles installed to the IBHS FORTIFIED standard — sealed deck seams, ring-shank nails, a wider drip-edge and starter strip, and a third-party evaluator who signs it off. Oklahoma insurers give 3 to 42 percent for the designation and the state's OKReady program pays up to $10,000 toward it. Details here.
Will you roof over my existing shingles to save money?
No. It hides rotten decking, voids most warranties, adds weight and makes the next roof cost more. Tear-off is in every price we write.
How long is the price good for?
30 days. Shingle prices have moved several times a year lately; after 30 days we re-check the material cost and re-issue.
