Where the Oklahoma City price comes from

Labor is 25% of the midpoint bill here, against 27% nationally. The mix of trades behind this job is glaziers (50%), carpenters (40%), general maintenance and repair workers (10%). We weight each trade's local median wage by that share and compare it with the national median. In Oklahoma City the blended ratio comes out at 0.82.

Materials are scaled with BEA's regional price parity for goods. Oklahoma City is at 93.8 against 100 for the US, so a materials line of $7,100 nationally becomes $6,650 here (midpoint, 10 windows). Permits follow the all-items index of 90.4: $0 to $0.

Who does the work: Oklahoma City trade wages

The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Oklahoma City the blend is 0.82.

Glaziers (47-2121), 50% of the weighting: a median of $22.18 an hour, 19% below the US median of $27.44. The middle half of them earn between $19.36 and $22.63 an hour. About 150 work in the metro. That is 2.2 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 3.8 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.

Carpenters (47-2031), 40% of the weighting: a median of $23.53 an hour, 19% below the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $21.13 and $27.60 an hour. About 1,420 work in the metro. That is 21.0 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.

For general maintenance and repair workers (49-9071, weighted 10%) the local median is $21.04 an hour, which is 12% below the national $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $17.44 and $26.46 an hour. BLS counts 6,480 of them working in the area, 95.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 98.4), so the local bench is about average.

A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (glaziers) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $20 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $140. That is a swing of roughly 1.6% to 0.2% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.

Oklahoma City has 677,680 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 44th by size among the 300 metros on this site.

Climate numbers on this page come from NOAA's 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals at the nearest suitable station, Oklahoma City Will Rogers Ap (5 miles from the city center). They are 30-year averages, so any one year can run hotter, colder or wetter.

For exterior installation, the comfortable months in Oklahoma City are September through June: 10 of 12. Outside them, July and August have an average daytime high of 90°F or more.

Oklahoma City gets about 36 inches of precipitation in a normal year, including roughly 7 inches of snow. The wettest months are May, June and September (5.3 inches in May). Inside the workable window, January and February are the driest, at 1.3 and 1.4 inches. The station averages about 74 days a year at 90°F or above.
