The median home in the city of Norman was built in 1988, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Oklahoma median of 1980.1 Norman's housing is newer than the national mix: 38% of units predate 1980 against 50% nationally, and 17% date from 2010 or later.1 Owner-occupied homes in Norman are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1991 against 1986.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.

Housing in Norman is mostly detached single-family: 62% of units, with 22% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Norman, with 53% of occupied homes owner-occupied (66% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Norman is valued at $250,100 (ACS), above the Oklahoma median of $199,800.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.

The Oklahoma City Will Rogers Ap station averages 72 nights a year at or below 32°F and 15 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers run hot, with about 73 days a year at 90°F or more and 12 at 100°F.2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies.

Annual precipitation is about 36 inches, with 11 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3 Snowfall averages about 7 inches a year.2,3 Heating and cooling loads are both real: about 3,615 heating and 1,867 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3 Norman sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Mixed-Humid).4

Building permits in Norman are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
