New Roofs Across Guthrie
Guthrie sits in Logan County, about 16 miles north of downtown Edmond on U.S. Highway 77. It was founded in the Land Run of 1889 and served as the territorial capital from 1890, then the state capital from 1907. Its older streets shape how a roof job here gets planned.
The town is growing again. The Census counted 10,749 people in 2020 and estimates 12,257 for July 2025. When you ask for a roof here, we send your details to one local roofer, who comes out, measures and gives you a written price. What you do next is up to you.
Homes and Roofs Around Guthrie
Guthrie's housing mixes century-old buildings near downtown with newer homes on the edges of its 17.98 square miles. About 65.2% of homes are lived in by their owners, and the median owner home value is $186,600 (Census, 2020-2024).
The Guthrie Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 and became a National Historic Landmark in 1999. No city roof rule for the district turned up in our research, so ask the city whether your block has design rules before you pick a color or material.
Roof Services in Guthrie
- Full roof replacement. For an older Guthrie home, the roofer checks the deck boards under the shingles before quoting, since aged decking can change the scope.
- Storm and hail damage. After a Logan County storm, the roofer can take photos and measurements of the damage; settling the claim stays between you and your insurer.
- Metal roofs. Standing-seam metal suits some outbuildings and newer homes here; on a historic block, ask the city first.
- Shingle roofs. Architectural and Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are both options. Some insurers discount a Class 4 or FORTIFIED roof, so check with yours.
- Roof repair. A few missing shingles or one leak around a chimney may only need a repair, not a full tear-off.
Storms That Reached Logan County
NWS Norman's tornado list for Guthrie includes the May 24, 2011 EF5 that ended about 4 miles northeast of town, an F2 on December 2, 1999 that passed southwest and north of Guthrie, and an F2 on August 31, 1979 that ended southwest of town.
Guthrie is not named on the NWS hail page for May 16, 2010, and we found no official Guthrie hail report. Nearby, an EF2 on Feb 10, 2009 ran from west Edmond into Logan County. On April 19, 2023, NWS Norman logged hail up to 2.00 inches west of Edmond.
Guthrie Requires a Roofing Permit
The City of Guthrie lists roofing among the projects that need a permit. Permits come from the Building Services Division of the Planning Department at 101 N 2nd St, Guthrie, OK 73044, phone (405) 282-1110. The state fire marshal's list shows 405-282-2489 for the building office, so ask which line handles roof permits.
The roofer pulls the permit, not you. One local rule worth knowing: city code § 4-6 allows wood shingles on homes outside the downtown "fire limits", which means wood shingles are limited inside them. Ask the roofer and the city where your address falls before choosing wood.

What Guthrie Gets From This Service
Drive past the Logan County Courthouse from 1907, the Scottish Rite Temple, the Carnegie Library or St. Joseph Convent and Academy, and you see why owners here care how a street looks. Architect Joseph Foucart gave much of the old town a Gothic flair that people work to keep.
You make one request and hear from one roofer, so you aren't fielding calls from a crowd. Before you sign, get the roofer's CIB number (it begins with "OK") and check it on the Construction Industries Board lookup. Also ask for proof of general liability insurance of at least $500,000 and a written, itemized contract.

What Guthrie Homeowners Ask
Will the City of Guthrie want a permit for my re-roof?
Yes. The City of Guthrie lists roofing as work that needs a permit. The Building Services Division at 101 N 2nd St handles it, and you can reach the city at (405) 282-1110. Your roofer should pull the permit before work starts, so ask about it when you get the written price.
My house is in the historic district. Are there roof rules?
We found no published roof rule for the district, a National Historic Landmark since 1999, but that doesn't mean none exists. Call the city and ask whether your block has design rules before you settle on a material or color.
Can I put wood shingles on a Guthrie home?
City code § 4-6 allows wood shingles on dwellings outside the fire limits, so they are restricted inside that downtown area. How the fire limits map today wasn't confirmed, so check your address with the Building Services Division before you plan on wood.
Has hail hit Guthrie?
We found no official NWS hail report naming Guthrie. Tornadoes have touched the area, including the May 24, 2011 EF5 that ended northeast of town. Hail up to 2.00 inches fell west of Edmond on April 19, 2023, so a nearby storm is still worth a roof check.
Does this service cost me anything?
No. The referral is free to you. Roofers may pay us for the referral, but you never pay us and we never take part in your contract.
