Oklahoma HVAC (Mechanical) License Renewal
Last reviewed October 2026
Oklahoma HVAC/R, refrigeration, sheet metal and other mechanical licenses are issued by the Construction Industries Board (CIB) and last no more than a year: every license expires on the last day of the licensee's birth month. A late fee applies after 30 days, and most journeymen and contractors need six hours of approved continuing education in the 36 months before it expires to renew. An active contractor also keeps a $5,000 bond and $50,000 of liability insurance on file, and the license goes inactive if the insurance lapses.

Oklahoma Roofing Contractor Registration Renewal
Last reviewed October 2026
Every roofing contractor working in Oklahoma needs a registration from the Construction Industries Board (CIB), renewed every year by the last day of the qualifying party's birth month. Renewal is a notarized paper application with a $75 fee and a current certificate of liability insurance: at least $500,000 for residential work, $1,000,000 with a commercial endorsement. There's a 30-day grace period, then a $100 late fee; until January 1, 2027, a registration not renewed within 60 days is suspended, and one still not renewed within 6 months of expiring is revoked. A new residential roofer endorsement starts January 1, 2027, and the CIB says that from January 1, 2028 all residential roofing work needs it, unless exempt. House Bill 3800 also changes parts of the roofing law on January 1, 2027, including continuing education and fines.
- Renews every
- Every year. The registration and any endorsement expire on the last day of the qualifying party's birth month, and the renewal application is due by that day
- Continuing education
- The Act ties continuing education to endorsements, not to the registration itself, and an endorsement can't be renewed until its qualifying party has completed it. For a commercial endorsement, the CIB's roofing page and application say at least 4 hours of approved continuing education every 3 years (36 months), starting 3 years after passing the endorsement exam. House Bill 3800 (2026), effective January 1, 2027, makes it 4 hours every year
