Tulsa's Historic Neighborhoods Deserve a Roofer Who Understands Them.
From the 1920s bungalows of Cherry Street to the Tudor estates of Maple Ridge — RainTech is the Midtown Tulsa roofing company built on preservation craft and premium materials. GAF Master Elite® certified, in-house copper sheet metal shop, and the patience that older homes require.
A Midtown Roofer Who Knows What's Under the Shingles.
Midtown Tulsa is where the city's character lives. The 1920s bungalows along Cherry Street. The Tudor Revivals and Spanish Eclectics in Maple Ridge. The Craftsmans of Florence Park, the Mid-Century moderns of Yorktown, and the broad porches of Brookside. Every Midtown street tells a different decade of Tulsa's story — which means every Midtown roof is a different problem.
RainTech Roofing has been replacing roofs across the Tulsa metro for more than two decades, and Midtown is where local experience matters most. We know the difference between a 1928 board-sheathed roof and a 1962 plywood-decked one. We know which Midtown neighborhoods commonly have layered shingles to tear off, which 1940s homes might still have asbestos shingles to test for, and how to preserve the original copper flashing detail on a turret without compromising performance.
We're a Tulsa-metro-only company by choice. That's deliberate — it lets us actually answer the phone, show up when we said we would, and stand behind every Midtown roof we install for the long haul. GAF Master Elite® certified. In-house sheet metal shop. Crews that protect plaster, mature landscaping, and the kind of historic detail you can't replace.
What Makes Midtown Roofs Different.
Midtown's housing stock is mostly 1920s through 1960s. That means original board sheathing instead of plywood, layered shingles from decades of overlay work, period flashing that's reached the end of its service life, and ventilation systems that often predate modern code. None of these are problems on their own — but they require a contractor who's seen them before and knows what to do.
A roofer used to working on 2010s suburban builds will treat a Midtown house the same way and miss everything that makes it different. Our crews approach Midtown homes with the patience the architecture deserves: documented inspections, careful tear-off, original detail preserved or restored, and the right warranty paperwork at the end.
Layered Shingles & Tear-Off
Many Midtown roofs have one or two prior overlays. We tear off down to the deck so we can actually inspect, install ice-and-water shield correctly, and qualify the roof for full warranty coverage.
Original Board Decking
1x6 and 1x8 board sheathing on a 1920s–1950s Midtown home is often still serviceable. We inspect every section after tear-off and replace what's rotted or compromised — never blanket-replace what doesn't need it.
Asbestos Shingle Testing
Common on 1930s–1955 Midtown builds. We pause and recommend testing before tear-off. If positive, we coordinate licensed abatement before our crews begin work.
Copper Flashing & Period Detail
In-house sheet metal shop fabricates new copper chimney saddles, dormer crickets, and decorative metal that respects the original architecture.
Ventilation Upgrades
Many older Midtown attics under-ventilate by modern standards, which shortens shingle life. We add ridge vent and intake without altering the roofline.
Plaster Ceiling Care
Plaster on 60+ year old homes is sensitive to tear-off vibration. Our crews work deliberately and we communicate the daily schedule with you in advance.
GAF Master Elite® and Designer Shingles for Midtown's Architecture.
When you're investing in a roof for a Maple Ridge Tudor or a Brookside bungalow, the warranty paperwork matters as much as the materials. The GAF Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty is the strongest in residential roofing — and it's transferable when you sell, which Midtown buyers notice at closing.
Fewer than 2% of US contractors are authorized to issue this warranty. As GAF Master Elite® certified, we install the full GAF Designer line — Camelot®, Grand Sequoia®, Glenwood®, and Slateline® — in addition to standard architectural shingles. For period-correct slate-look character on a Tudor, shake-look profiles for a Craftsman, or a clean architectural shingle on a 1950s ranch, we'll bring sample boards to your property and walk you through which option reads best on your specific home.

GAF Camelot®, Grand Sequoia®, Glenwood®, and Slateline® — slate-look and shake-look profiles for period homes that deserve more than a standard architectural.
Copper & Sheet Metal
In-house sheet metal shop fabricating chimney saddles, dormer cricket assemblies, copper bay window roofs, scuppers, and decorative architectural metal.

Documented inspections that hold up with every Oklahoma carrier. We meet your adjuster on-site and advocate for the full scope on Midtown homes that often have older insurance valuations.

Roofing Midtown Tulsa's Distinctive Home Styles.
Midtown is the most architecturally diverse part of the Tulsa metro. Each neighborhood has its own character — and each character has its own roofing answer.
Brookside Bungalows
1920s and 1930s Craftsman bungalows with deep eaves, exposed rafter tails, and broad porch rooflines. Heavyweight architectural shingles in earth tones, or shake-look designer profiles like GAF Grand Sequoia® for the higher-end builds.
Maple Ridge Tudors & Spanish Eclectic
Steep pitches, multiple gables, half-timbered detail, and stucco facades. Slate-look designer shingles like Camelot® or Slateline® honor the architecture; copper flashing and dormer details bring the period work back to life.
Cherry Street & Florence Park Craftsmans
Lower-pitch hipped roofs, deep eaves, exposed rafter tails, and original copper flashing. Shake-look designer shingles or heavyweight architecturals preserve the character; we rebuild the period detail with copper from our in-house shop.
Yorktown & Mid-Century Moderns
Low-slope ranches, butterfly roofs, and clean Mid-Century lines. Architectural shingle in a flat color or standing-seam metal accents — and fully reworked drainage on homes where original gutter sizing was undersized for Tulsa's downpours.
Swan Lake & Renaissance Estates
Higher-end early-1900s and 1920s estate homes with complex rooflines, original slate or tile in some cases, and significant copper detail. Synthetic slate and full custom sheet metal are commonly the right answer.
Cherry Street & Brookside Commercial
Restaurants, boutique retail, and mixed-use buildings along 15th and Peoria. Low-slope TPO, modified bitumen, and roof coatings sized for buildings where downtime is expensive.

BOOK A FREE INSPECTIONWhat Midtown Tulsa Homeowners Say
RainTech took the time to understand what we wanted on our 1929 Maple Ridge home. They preserved the original copper details, matched the slate-look shingles beautifully, and the crew was respectful of our landscaping. We couldn't be more pleased.
Margaret B.
Maple Ridge Resident
Outstanding service from start to finish. The team explained every step, walked us through what they found under the old shingles, and the new roof on our Brookside bungalow looks like it belongs to the era of the home. Highly recommend.
