Patterson Roofing & Construction is a licensed and insured roofing contractor serving Oklahoma City with residential tear-offs, replacements, repairs, and commercial flat-roof work. The company handles material selection, warranty negotiation, and inspection processes without subcontracting labor, which means work stays in-house and reduces the coordination delays common when multiple crews rotate through a job.
Patterson handles pitched residential roofs (asphalt shingles, architectural shingles, metal), flat commercial roofs (TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen), and repair-only jobs ranging from a single leak to storm damage claims. The company pulls permits through Oklahoma City's Department of Planning and Code Enforcement where required and coordinates with homeowners' insurance adjusters during the estimate phase. Scale matters here: Patterson is large enough to carry bonding and liability insurance but operates without the branch-office overhead that inflates quotes at national franchises.
Asphalt shingle roofs (the standard in Oklahoma) range from $8,000 to $16,000 for a 2,000-square-foot residential home, depending on shingle grade (3-tab vs. architectural) and roof pitch. Metal roofs (standing seam or metal shingles) run 40 to 60 percent higher. Flat commercial roofs cost $6 to $12 per square foot installed, not including tear-off. Warranties on material typically run 15 to 50 years depending on shingle type; Patterson's labor warranty is 10 years on residential work. Repair-only jobs are priced per visit plus materials, with emergency after-hours calls carrying a $500 to $750 premium over standard daytime rates.
The permit and inspection process adds 1 to 2 weeks to most projects. Oklahoma City requires a roofing permit for any roof replacement or major repair; Patterson files and schedules the final inspection as part of the job.
Patterson competes primarily against national franchises (Roof Depot, Exterior Pro) and smaller single-owner shops. Franchise operations typically charge 15 to 20 percent higher for identical materials and labor because overhead is passed through; they also subcontract labor in many cases, which can stretch timelines and muddy accountability if problems arise after the job closes. Single-owner shops around Oklahoma City often carry lighter insurance and may not pull permits consistently, which creates liability exposure for the homeowner if the roof fails during a storm claim.
Patterson's middle position—licensed, insured, and locally based without corporate overhead—makes it the practical choice for homeowners who want accountability and reasonable pricing. For commercial flat-roof work specifically, Patterson is faster than most residential-focused shops because the crew does not rotate between pitched and flat systems; continuity reduces installer error on TPO and EPDM seams.
Patterson works well for homeowners replacing a roof before selling, managing an insurance claim, or addressing storm damage. Budget-conscious owners buying the cheapest quote should call Exterior Pro or other franchises first; Patterson's pricing reflects licensed labor and single-source accountability, not bottom-tier competition. Commercial property managers overseeing multiple buildings benefit from Patterson's ability to handle mixed portfolios and schedule around tenant occupancy.
Patterson is not a subscription or "roof renewal" program; this is traditional project-based roofing, not a lease-to-own model.
Patterson's inspector visits the site, measures the roof visually and by drone in some cases, photographs damage or wear, and issues a written estimate within 48 hours. The estimate includes material grade, labor scope, permit fees, and the timeline. Insurance claims are handled by sending photos and the estimate to the adjuster; Patterson does not cover the gap between the adjuster's payout and the actual quote but does work with carriers on common disputes (e.g., depreciation).
Homeowners should have the estimate reviewed before scheduling; questions about material upgrades or warranty extensions are answered during this phase.
Patterson operates Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., with emergency calls accepted through a voicemail system after hours. The main office is in Oklahoma City; job sites are throughout the metro area and surrounding counties. Contact is by phone or through the company website for a callback. Storm season (March through May in Oklahoma) fills the schedule; non-urgent replacements booked in June or July typically start sooner.
Patterson Roofing & Construction fills the gap between high-price franchises and under-insured local operators, making it the practical pick for homeowners and commercial owners who need licensed, permitted work and a single contact if repairs are needed post-installation.
