Roofing Experts
Our work in Independence is part of a larger focus on Hennepin County and the communities surrounding it. Every job we take on follows the same process: free inspection with photos, written estimate that explains the scope clearly, IKO Class 3 shingles on replacements, and a crew that works clean and leaves the property the way they found it. Jon is on every job, not managing from an office.
Independence sits in the lake country of western Hennepin County, where open terrain and minimal tree cover mean wind-driven hail hits roofs without much to slow it down. Homes in this area also deal with standing water and ice buildup around low-slope sections and valleys — conditions that accelerate granule loss and flashing failure faster than most homeowners realize until a leak shows up.
Jon personally handles every job in Independence. 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
Jon built this business on referrals, and in smaller communities like Independence that matters — a bad job follows you. We're straightforward about whether a repair makes sense or whether replacement is the better call long-term, and we don't push toward the more expensive option just because it pays more.
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 Independence?
Roof replacements in Hennepin County typically range from $10,000 to $18,000 for a standard residential home, with urban properties and complex rooflines on the higher end. If your Independence 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 Independence home if I'm not sure whether storm damage occurred?
Yes, and you don't need to have a specific event in mind to justify a call. We inspect Independence roofs routinely for homeowners who just want to know where they stand after a rough season. We get on the roof, photograph what we find, and give you a written report — if there's nothing actionable, we tell you that directly and you owe us nothing.
How do I know if my Independence insurance claim will be approved?
Approval depends heavily on what gets documented and how the adjuster inspection goes. Insurance companies work from what's in front of them at that appointment, which is why we attend every one with our own photo record and written assessment. If we found damage worth claiming in Independence, we make sure the adjuster is looking at the same thing we documented — that alignment is what determines how the claim gets valued.
Are you licensed to do roofing work in Independence?
Bold North Exteriors is licensed in Minnesota under contractor license BC795118 and fully insured for work in Independence and throughout Hennepin County. We pull all required permits before work begins — that's not optional, and any contractor telling you otherwise is a red flag. You can confirm our license status directly through the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry if you want to verify before you call.
