Optional extras in Oklahoma
Extras are quoted nationally and then scaled to Oklahoma by the average of the local wage index (0.81) and goods index (0.94), a factor of 0.87. Tick any of them in the estimator above to add them to your total. Treat these as planning figures: an add-on touches different trades than the main job, so the scaling is an approximation.

Oklahoma labor market for concrete patio
Statewide wages come from BLS's state-level estimates, which blend big cities with small towns and rural areas. 4 trades drive the labor line for this job, and the weighted ratio against the national wage level is 0.81 for Oklahoma.
For cement masons and concrete finishers (47-2051, weighted 50%) the local median is $22.00 an hour, which is 20% below the national $27.41. The middle half of them earn between $18.98 and $23.58 an hour. BLS counts 2,980 of them working in the state, 17.5 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 13.3), so the local bench is deeper than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 30% of the weighting: a median of $18.92 an hour, 17% below the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $17.54 and $22.82 an hour. About 13,710 work in the state. That is 80.3 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 10%) the local median is $22.55 an hour, which is 23% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $19.37 and $25.72 an hour. BLS counts 3,820 of them working in the state, 22.4 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.
For operating engineers and other construction equipment operators (47-2073, weighted 10%) the local median is $23.06 an hour, which is 20% below the national $28.78. The middle half of them earn between $20.15 and $27.26 an hour. BLS counts 7,050 of them working in the state, 41.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 30.7), so the local bench is deeper than average.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for cement masons and concrete finishers ($23.58 an hour) would add about $40 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($18.98) would take off about $75. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 1,707,680 jobs across Oklahoma (May 2025), which is 1.1% of US employment.

Concrete patio: what moves the price in Oklahoma
Finish
Plain concrete is $4-$12 per sq ft and a broom finish $6-$13; designs with several colors and decorative finishes run up to about $28 (HomeGuide).
Site prep
Excavation, forms and a gravel base are the unglamorous part of the bill and vary most with soil and slope.
Size
Small patios carry fixed costs for forms and mobilization, so the per-square-foot price drops as the patio gets bigger.
Permit
Permits run $50-$400 where required. Many cities don't require one for a small at-grade patio.
Which Oklahoma city is cheapest for concrete patio?
2 of the 2 metros sit above the statewide midpoint of $2,250, and the top-to-bottom gap is 1%. Each row prices the default size with that metro's own BLS wages and BEA price levels, so the gap between rows is real local variation rather than a flat markup.
| Metro | Range (300 sq ft) | Midpoint | vs. state |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tulsa, OK | $1,150 – $3,500 | $2,300 | +2% |
| Oklahoma City, OK | $1,100 – $3,500 | $2,300 | +1% |
Oklahoma seasons and concrete patio
Season matters for concrete patio. For each Oklahoma metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for pouring concrete.
Tulsa has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Oklahoma at 6 months (March through June and September through October); Oklahoma City has the shortest at 5 (April through June and September through October). Rainfall runs from 36 inches a year in Oklahoma City to 41 inches in Tulsa.
We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.
| Metro | Jan avg low °F | Jul avg high °F | Precip (in/yr) | Comfortable months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oklahoma City | 27 | 93 | 36 | 5: April through June and September through October |
| Tulsa | 28 | 94 | 41 | 6: March through June and September through October |
