FORTIFIED™ roofs in Broken Arrow: two counties, early grant ZIPs and recent tornadoes

A FORTIFIED roof in Broken Arrow can get up to $10,000 from the Strengthen Oklahoma Homes grant, and the city was one of the first places the grant reached: ZIPs 74011, 74012 and 74014 were in the 2025 pilot rounds. Broken Arrow sits in both Tulsa and Wagoner counties, which decides where you file the homestead exemption the grant requires.

What it means

Newer homes, fewer surprises under the shingles

About 40% of Broken Arrow homes were built in 2000 or later, against 13.6% in Tulsa. Newer decking usually means fewer boards to replace once the old roof comes off, so bids tend to vary less. Still check each bid against the evaluator’s report.

On income, Tier 1 (processed first) is $62,138 or less. Broken Arrow’s median is $86,765, so most households are Tier 2. Within each tier it’s first-come, first-served: be ready at noon on 12 October.

Registered roofer: Roofers must be registered under the state Roofing Contractor Registration Act with the Construction Industries Board.
Permit: Ask your roofer to apply through the city’s online portal and keep the permit number with your FORTIFIED paperwork.
Grant-approved: For the grant, the roofer must also be on the approved list.
