Commercial roofing for Tulsa-area school districts and higher education campuses — TPS, Broken Arrow, Jenks, Union, Owasso, Bixby, TU, ORU, and TCC. Bond-project sequencing, summer production windows, and public procurement compliance.
Tulsa Public Schools, Broken Arrow, Jenks, Union, Owasso, and Bixby district facilities — and Tulsa's higher education campuses at TU, ORU, and TCC. School roofing scoped around summer production windows, bond-project requirements, and public procurement compliance.
The Tulsa metropolitan area school market spans multiple large independent school districts — Tulsa Public Schools with approximately 80 campuses, Broken Arrow Public Schools, Jenks Public Schools, Union Public Schools, Owasso Public Schools, and Bixby Public Schools among them. Together these districts operate hundreds of facilities ranging from 1950s-era brick elementary buildings to 2010s-era performing arts centers and career-tech facilities. The roof systems across this inventory span 70 years of construction and are in every phase of their lifecycle simultaneously, which is why the better-resourced districts have moved to multi-year roof asset management plans that prioritize capital across the portfolio rather than responding to individual building emergencies.
Tulsa's higher education market adds the University of Tulsa's Cherry Street campus, Oral Roberts University's south Tulsa campus, and Tulsa Community College's Northeast, Metro, Southeast, and West campuses. Each of these institutions carries a large and varied building inventory with roofs in different phases of maintenance, and each operates under the public procurement requirements that govern contractor selection and contract administration.
School roofing in this market is almost entirely summer-window work: production runs from mid-May through mid-August to avoid disruption to the academic calendar. Summer window scheduling requires pre-construction planning that begins in February or March — by the time summer starts, the scope, the materials, and the production sequence should all be confirmed. Districts that begin procurement in May typically cannot start production until July, which compresses the production window against the August back-to-school date.
Oklahoma school district roof replacements funded through bond elections go through the public competitive bidding process under Oklahoma statutes. The bid documents specify the scope, the acceptable materials, and the prevailing-wage requirements; contractors submit sealed bids; and the board awards to the low responsive bidder. We have bid and awarded bond-project reroofs for Tulsa-area school districts, and we are familiar with the administrative requirements of each district's purchasing department.
Multi-campus bond projects — where a single contract covers reroofs across three, five, or ten district buildings — require a production schedule that moves from campus to campus within the The production schedule for a multi-campus bond project is submitted to the district's facilities director at project startup and updated weekly throughout production.
Tulsa Public Schools operates the oldest and most varied facility inventory in the metro — elementary buildings dating from the 1920s through 1950s in north and east Tulsa, secondary campuses from the 1960s and 1970s, and newer construction at magnet programs and career-tech facilities. The oldest TPS buildings carry built-up roof systems on structural concrete decks; discovery work during tear-off on these buildings consistently reveals drain sumps that have been elevated by multiple recovery layers over decades, compressed fiber insulation, and deck surface corrosion at drain penetrations.
We account for substrate complexity in our TPS scopes with a documented contingency for deck repairs and drain-sump reconstruction that discovery work consistently produces on 1940s-through-1960s concrete deck buildings. We notify the district facilities director as soon as deck or drain conditions are discovered, document the finding with photographs, and present the repair option with cost and production-time impact before proceeding.
Broken Arrow, Jenks, Union, Owasso, and Bixby are in active bond-project cycles that have included significant roof replacement work. These districts tend to have more consistent facility inventories — most of their building stock dates from the 1980s through 2000s — and their procurement processes are well-organized. We run pre-bid site walks with each district's facilities staff to document the specific conditions at each building before bid submission, so our bid is based on observed conditions rather than assumptions.
The University of Tulsa's Cherry Street campus and ORU's south Tulsa campus are private institutions that operate outside public procurement requirements but follow similar summer-window scheduling constraints. TCC's four campuses span different areas of the metro and often procure roofing on a campus-by-campus basis. We have worked with TCC's facilities department on individual campus projects and understand the administrative requirements of each campus's purchasing process.
Yes, for properly scoped projects that begin pre-construction in February or March. A single-building elementary school reroof of 20,000-40,000 sq ft typically runs 3-5 weeks of production. Multi-campus bond projects require a sequenced production schedule that moves crews from campus to campus and delivers every building before the district's back-to-school date. Production schedules are submitted to the district facilities director at project startup.
Yes. We participate in Oklahoma public school competitive bidding processes, meet prevailing-wage documentation requirements, and administer bond project contracts under the administrative requirements of each district's purchasing department. We have bid and completed bond-project reroofs for Tulsa-area school districts.
We notify the district facilities director immediately, document the finding with photographs, and present the repair option with cost and production-time impact before proceeding with any additional work. We hold a contingency line in our scope for substrate repairs that discovery work consistently produces on concrete-deck buildings from the 1940s through 1960s — that line is documented in the bid rather than appearing as a surprise change order.
Yes. The University of Tulsa's Cherry Street campus and ORU's south Tulsa campus present similar summer-window scheduling constraints to K-12 school work, with additional coordination requirements around student housing and research facility operations that run year-round. We scope higher education campus projects around the specific operational calendar of each building, not a blanket summer-window assumption.
Our project managers will walk your district buildings or campus facilities, document conditions across the inventory, and produce a written capital plan — formatted for bond-project procurement or facilities committee review.
