Roofing Experts
Our coverage across Dakota County includes Coates and the communities around it. We're a small operation intentionally: Jon on every job, a consistent crew, and a direct line throughout the project. We use IKO Dynasty Class 3 shingles as our standard on every replacement because they're the right product for Minnesota's weather. Most contractors don't lead with that. We do because it matters for the homeowner's insurance premiums and the roof's long-term performance.
Dakota County sits in one of Minnesota's more active hail corridors, and Coates — positioned in the open terrain southeast of the metro — doesn't have much in the way of tree cover or topography to soften what comes through. That exposure means roofs here tend to accumulate granule loss and micro-fractures from repeated hail events faster than homeowners expect, often without visible damage from the ground. It's worth getting eyes on your roof after any significant storm, not just the ones that make the news.
We're about an hour from Coates depending on traffic, which means we can respond quickly after storm events and be on your roof the same day or next day after a major weather event in Dakota County.
Why choose us
Jon's approach has always been to give Coates homeowners the same answer he'd give a neighbor: if the roof can be repaired, we'll tell you that, and if it needs to be replaced, we'll show you exactly why. That honest repair-versus-replace conversation is something a lot of contractors skip because a repair doesn't pay as well as a full job — but it's how we've built most of our business on word of mouth rather than advertising.
We're not a big franchise — we're Jon and the crew, and we'll be here long after the job is done.
Honest Estimates
We'll tell you exactly what your roof needs — and what it doesn't. No upsell.
Insurance Experts
We work directly with your adjuster so you get what you're owed. Oftentimes, finding money insurance often neglects.

Jon delivered on a tricky project for us and was top notch. I would not hesitate to use him for future needs or to recommend him to anyone.

Great service and communication. Storm damaged roof was replaced quickly. Already recommended to a friend.
Keith A.
Kudos to Jon for sticking with us and working with multiple adjusters while trying to get our insurance company to cover the roof. The install was done in a day as promised and the workers did a great job of cleanup. Highly recommend Bold North.

How much does a new roof cost in Coates?
Most residential roof replacements in Dakota County run between $8,000 and $16,000 depending on size, pitch, and materials. Storm damage covered by insurance can significantly reduce out-of-pocket cost. If your Coates home has storm damage from a recent hail or wind event, your homeowner's insurance may cover all or most of the replacement. We provide free written estimates so you know exactly where you stand before committing to anything.
How quickly can you schedule a free inspection in Coates?
For Coates and the surrounding parts of Dakota County, we can usually get out for a free inspection within two to three business days under normal conditions. If there's been a recent hail or wind event in the area, we move storm calls to the front of the line and typically reach homeowners within 24 to 48 hours. Call us at (507) 581-2557 and we'll get something scheduled.
What should I expect at the insurance adjuster inspection for my Coates home?
Your insurance adjuster is there to document damage and establish what the policy will cover, but their inspection is only as thorough as the documentation in front of them. When we attend your adjuster inspection, we bring our own photos, measurements, and notes from our prior assessment, and we walk the adjuster through the damage systematically rather than leaving it to a quick visual pass. Homeowners who have a contractor present at the adjuster visit consistently see more complete approvals than those who go through it alone. We do this on every storm claim at no additional charge.
How do I verify that a roofing contractor is legitimate before hiring them in Coates?
Any contractor working in Minnesota is required to carry a state license, and you can verify that in about two minutes on the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry website — just search the contractor's name or license number. Bold North Exteriors holds license BC795118, and we'll give you that number upfront without being asked. Beyond the license, check that they carry liability and workers' comp insurance, and be cautious of anyone requesting substantial payment before the work begins.
