Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement & Installation Across Norman
A full roof replacement in Norman typically runs $8,500-$18,000 for asphalt shingles on a standard single-family home, with most jobs completed in two to four days once materials arrive. If you’re calling after spring hail season, you’re not alone - Norman sits in one of the highest hail-frequency corridors in the nation, and our Roof Replacement & Installation team stays busy from March through June.
We’ve been climbing Norman roofs since 1984. Pete Navarro started Ridgeline Roofing Co. with the belief that a roof should be built to outlast the storms, not just survive the sale. Our office in Norman means we can usually get a uniformed technician to your home in 73071, 73072, or 73019 within hours, not days. Live phones, no voicemail trees - call (844) 563-1816 anytime.
Why Ridgeline Roofing Co. Is Norman’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company
Norman homeowners know the difference between a local crew and a storm chaser with out-of-state plates. We’ve been here over 42 years. Our apprentices train into journeymen here. We hire from Noble, Moore, Newcastle - not Texas or Florida. When you call us in eighteen months because a valley is leaking, we answer. That is not a given with the crews who flooded southeast Norman after the last hail event.
Our reviews come from people you might know. The 1970s subdivisions off East Robinson Street, the ranch homes near OU campus in 73069, the newer builds in 73072 - we’ve replaced roofs on all of them. Homeowners mention the same things: we show up when we say, the price on the estimate matches the invoice, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise means something. If it is not right, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing.
Response time matters after a storm. A live person answers our phones 24/7, including the middle of the night when you’re listening to hail hit the deck. We can typically inspect within 24 hours in Norman proper, and we document everything with photos from your actual roof - not a drone flyover, not a satellite image. Those photos become evidence for your adjuster.
Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Norman
Full Roof Replacement
Most full replacements we do in Norman are not elective. They’re driven by hail damage layered over aging shingles that the heat has already made brittle. We replaced a 30-year-old 3-tab asphalt roof on a 1970s ranch in the 73071 ZIP code near East Robinson Street. The original Tamko shingles had granule loss from heat and freeze-thaw cycles, plus unrepaired hail dents from two springs prior. We installed CertainTeed Landmark PRO with enhanced ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys. That extra layer matters when Norman’s hard freezes follow 105-degree summers.
Full replacement means we strip to decking, inspect for rot (common in 1950s-1960s homes near campus), and rebuild from the underlayment up. Most jobs finish in two to three days. We haul away the old material. You get a clean yard and a written warranty.
New Construction Roofing
Builders in Norman’s newer developments - the infill near 73072, the expansion toward Blanchard - call us for roofs that will pass inspection and hold value. We coordinate with framers and inspectors on pitch, ventilation, and code compliance. Oklahoma wind uplift requirements are strict, and we engineer every new roof to meet them without the shortcuts that cheap bids sometimes hide.
Asphalt Shingle Installation
Asphalt remains the right choice for most Norman homes. Architectural shingles from GAF and CertainTeed handle the UV intensity and thermal cycling better than the 3-tab originals they’re replacing. We see a lot of those originals in the 1970s-1990s tract homes across 73070, 73071, and 73072. They’re past their 20-25 year design life. If yours is original, Norman Roof Repair or full replacement is usually smarter after any significant weather event.
We install Atlas, Tamko, and GAF lines with proper ridge venting and synthetic underlayment. The brands matter less than the installation, but we are authorized for all seven major manufacturers - no substitutions, no “equivalent” products you didn’t approve.
Metal Roofing
Metal makes sense for some Norman properties, especially rural homes near Newcastle or farmsteads toward Noble where hail frequency makes shingle replacement a recurring expense - and where Gutters & Accessories in Norman also need to withstand the same conditions. Standing seam metal sheds ice and handles thermal expansion without the cracking that kills asphalt. We install Boral and other manufacturer systems with concealed fasteners that won’t back out in Norman’s temperature swings. Cost runs higher - typically $15,000-$28,000 - but the 40-70 year lifespan changes the math for homeowners who plan to stay.

Trusted Brands We Service in Norman
We are authorized installers for GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. That authorization means factory-trained installation, full warranty registration, and no bait-and-switch on materials. For Norman customers, it also means faster turnaround - we stock common shingle colors and accessories locally, so you’re not waiting six weeks for a special order while the tarp holds. We specify Tamko Heritage and Atlas StormMaster Slate for homeowners who want enhanced impact resistance without the metal roof price. Every brand we carry is chosen for how it performs in Oklahoma’s specific climate, not how it looks in a brochure.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Norman Homes
- Storm-chaser crews install over damaged decking. Out-of-state roofers sign jobs fast, strip old shingles, and lay new ones over rotted or compromised decking. Norman’s repeated freeze-thaw cycles find those weak spots within two winters. We get called to tear off and start over.
- Original decking on pre-1970s homes near OU campus. The 1950s-1960s ranch homes in 73069 often have 1×6 or 1×8 plank decking, not plywood. It can rot around fasteners, sag between rafters, or fail to hold modern shingles properly. We evaluate this before we quote, not after we start.
- Underpaid insurance claims from poor documentation. Homeowners don’t photograph pre-existing hail damage layered over thermally cracked shingles. Adjusters see a 25-year-old roof and pay for partial repair. We document everything - granule loss, cracking, impact bruising, seal strip failure - so your claim reflects actual damage.
- Improper valley and flashing work. Norman’s ice storms and driving rains punish valleys, chimneys, and wall intersections. Cheap bids often reuse old flashing or skip ice and water shield. We don’t. The eaves and valleys get full protection, every time.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Norman
It means adjusters and contractors mobilize fast - sometimes too fast. The Storm Prediction Center and National Severe Storms Laboratory meteorologists track hail events in real time, making post-storm adjuster coordination and documentation a core competency for local roofers. Out-of-state storm chasers often botch claims, leaving homeowners to call us 12-18 months later. We recommend waiting for a local inspection before signing any contract, even if it means tarping for a week. Call (844) 563-1816 and we’ll document your damage properly the first time.
Replace. Original 3-tab shingles in Norman’s 1970s-1990s subdivisions are past their design life, and the UV baking and freeze-thaw cycling have made them brittle. Light hail that would bounce off a new shingle will crack an aged one. Repairing individual tabs on a roof this old is usually throwing good money after bad. A full replacement with modern architectural shingles gives you 25-30 years and proper insurance documentation for future claims. We offer free estimates and a 5% senior discount.
Most 1950s-1960s decking can support asphalt if we address the condition first. Original plank decking may need supplemental plywood or full redecking where fasteners have loosened or rot has set in. We evaluate this during inspection - we don’t guess. Metal is an option if you want maximum longevity, but it’s not required for structural reasons. The cost difference is significant, and we’ll explain both paths honestly. Call for an inspection; estimates are free.
CertainTeed Landmark PRO and GAF Timberline HDZ handle Norman’s thermal cycling well, with strong seal strips and granule adhesion. For maximum impact resistance, we specify Atlas StormMaster Slate or Tamko Heritage with Class 4 ratings. Metal from Boral eliminates the granule-loss problem entirely. We match the brand to your roof pitch, your insurance requirements, and your budget - no one-size-fits-all. All are installed to manufacturer spec, which preserves your warranty.
Never sign a contract at your door. Demand a local business license, proof of Oklahoma workers’ compensation, and a physical address you’ve verified. Check how long they’ve been in business - not how long their sign says “local.” Ask for photos of your actual roof damage, not generic samples. At Ridgeline, we’ve been here since 1984, we answer live 24/7, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise is in writing. If a contractor pressures you, they’re not the right contractor. Call (844) 563-1816 for a free second opinion on any written estimate.
