Newer homes and fast growth
According to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS 2024 5-year), Jenks has about 27,102 residents and the newest homes of the six suburbs on this site: the median home was built in 2006, and 39.8% were built in 2010 or later. The median value is $327,100 and the city lies entirely in Tulsa County. Census counts show Jenks grew from 16,924 people in 2010 to 25,949 in 2020, about 53%.
The Department of Energy gives tank water heaters a 10 to 15 year life, so many mid-2000s Jenks homes are due for a first replacement. Leaks happen too; see leak detection if your bill has crept up.
Water and permits in Jenks
The City of Jenks buys all of its water from the City of Tulsa, which draws from Lake Hudson, Lake Oologah and the Spavinaw lakes. According to the City of Jenks' building permit procedures, all plumbing work must be done by licensed contractors registered with the City. Final inspections are not done until water and sewer taps are paid, so on a new build or addition, settle who pays the taps. This is general information, not legal advice.
Before you hire
- Ask for the contractor's Oklahoma plumbing contractor license number. Oklahoma rules require it on contractors' ads, bids and contracts, with "OK" in front of it on both sides of work vehicles.
- Look the number up on the Construction Industries Board's "Are They Licensed?" page.
- Ask whether they are registered with the City of Jenks and whether they will pull the permit.
- Get the price in writing before work starts.
- If you smell gas, leave the house first, then call 911 and Oklahoma Natural Gas at 800-458-4251.

Jenks plumbing FAQ
Does a plumber need to be registered with the City of Jenks?
According to the City of Jenks' building permit procedures, plumbing work must be done by licensed contractors registered with the City. Before you hire, ask for the contractor's Oklahoma plumbing license number, check it on the Construction Industries Board's "Are They Licensed?" page, and ask whether they are registered with Jenks and will pull the permit for your job.
My Jenks home is less than 20 years old. Could it still have a leak?
Yes. Newer homes can leak at water heaters, toilet flappers, faucets and supply lines, and soil movement can stress pipes and foundations. EPA WaterSense suggests a meter test: read the meter, use no water for two hours, then read it again. If the reading changed, a plumber can track down the source with leak detection equipment.
