Roofing Experts
Jon started Bold North Exteriors in 2018 with a straightforward premise: do the inspection properly, tell the homeowner the truth, and use quality materials on every job. That hasn't changed. In Janesville and across Waseca County, every customer gets the same approach: free thorough inspection, written estimate with no padded line items, and IKO Class 3 shingles as the standard on every replacement we install.
Waseca County sits in a part of southern Minnesota that sees reliable hail activity most summers, and Janesville's position on relatively flat, open terrain means there's nothing to break up wind before it hits your roof. That combination of hail exposure and unobstructed wind loading puts more cumulative stress on shingles here than homeowners typically realize until a claim comes up or a leak starts. It's one reason we default to IKO Dynasty Class 3 impact-resistant shingles on every replacement rather than treating them as an upgrade.
We serve homeowners throughout Janesville and the surrounding Waseca County communities. If a storm has come through and you want to know where your roof stands, a call to (507) 581-2557 gets you a free inspection within 24 to 48 hours.
Why choose us
Jon has been doing honest inspections in Waseca County since 2018, and a meaningful share of the work we get in Janesville comes from referrals — neighbors who saw the job, heard we didn't oversell them, and passed the number along. That kind of reputation only holds up if every inspection is straight with the homeowner, whether the answer is a minor repair or a full replacement. It's a slower way to build a business, but it's the only way that makes sense in a community this size.
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 Janesville?
Residential roof replacements in Waseca County generally run between $8,000 and $14,000. If your Janesville 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 soon after a storm should I schedule an inspection in Janesville?
Sooner is better, and in Janesville that's especially true after any storm that's already tracked through Waseca County and been reported in the area. Hail damage shows up clearly in the days right after an event — the bruising on shingles, the granule loss, the dented metal — and that early documentation is what makes an insurance claim straightforward to support. Minnesota gives you a year to file, but adjusters work from what they can see, and weathering closes that window faster than most people expect. Call (507) 581-2557 and we can usually get out within 24 to 48 hours.
Do you handle the insurance claim process for Janesville homeowners?
We handle the adjuster process directly for Janesville homeowners — Jon attends the inspection, brings his own photos and measurements, and makes sure nothing gets missed or undervalued in the initial assessment. Insurance companies aren't trying to shortchange you, but adjusters are moving fast and covering a lot of ground after a regional storm event, and details get overlooked when a contractor isn't there to walk the damage with them. We do this on every storm damage job at no extra charge because the documentation we build at inspection is the same documentation that supports your claim.
Is Bold North Exteriors licensed and insured for roofing work in Janesville?
Bold North Exteriors holds Minnesota contractor license BC795118 and carries full liability insurance and workers compensation on every job we run in Janesville. We pull permits where required and work to Waseca County code on every replacement and repair. Jon is the one running the work, not a subcontracted crew, so there's a direct line of accountability from the license to the person on your roof.
