Roofing Experts
We work in Gaylord regularly as part of our Sibley County territory. The homeowners we meet here fall into two groups: people dealing with storm damage they know about and need help navigating, and people who've had their roof for fifteen or twenty years and want an honest second opinion on how much life is left. We handle both well. Free inspection, written report, IKO-certified installation on replacements.
Sibley County sits in a stretch of south-central Minnesota that sees some of the state's more active hail tracks — storms that move northeast out of the Dakotas and Iowa tend to cut right through this corridor before losing intensity further east. Gaylord's flat, open surroundings mean there's nothing to break the wind before it hits your roof, which accelerates shingle granule loss and edge damage that most homeowners don't notice until water is already getting in. If you've had a significant storm in the last two or three years and haven't been on the roof since, there's a reasonable chance something is there worth looking at.
Jon personally handles every job in Gaylord. When you call us, you reach a person who knows your area and will be there on the day of installation, not a dispatcher managing a fleet of subcontractors.
Why choose us
Most of our Gaylord work comes from word of mouth — a neighbor mentions us, or someone sees our truck and asks a question. That means we have a real incentive to be straight with you about whether you need a repair or a full replacement, because the next call we get from your street depends on it. Jon does the inspection himself, gives you a written report either way, and if a replacement makes sense, every installation gets IKO Dynasty shingles and is registered directly with IKO under our certified contractor account so the warranty is actually enforceable.
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.

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 Gaylord?
Roof replacements in Sibley County typically run between $8,000 and $14,000 for a standard residential home. If your Gaylord 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.
Can you inspect my Gaylord home if I'm not sure whether storm damage occurred?
Yes, and you don't need to have a specific event in mind to schedule one. A lot of the damage we find in Gaylord comes from storms that homeowners either didn't notice or figured weren't severe enough to cause problems — smaller hail events and straight-line wind are easy to underestimate from the ground. We get on the roof, document everything with photos, and give you a written summary of what we found. If there's nothing worth claiming or repairing, we tell you that directly.
How do I know if my Gaylord insurance claim will be approved?
Approval depends on what the adjuster documents, and that assessment tends to go better when a contractor is present to point out damage that's easy to miss or dismiss during a quick inspection. We attend the adjuster appointment with you, bring our own photo documentation, and walk through the findings on-site so nothing gets overlooked or undervalued. One thing Gaylord homeowners sometimes don't realize is that there are deadlines in most policies for filing after a storm — waiting too long can complicate an otherwise valid claim, so if you think something happened, it's worth getting us out sooner rather than later.
Are you licensed to do roofing work in Gaylord?
