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 Lonsdale and across Rice 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.
Rice County sits in a part of Minnesota that sees a disproportionate share of hail activity as storms track northeast off the plains and funnel through the Minnesota River valley corridor — Lonsdale is squarely in that path. The freeze-thaw cycle here is also hard on rooflines: water works into small cracks or gaps around penetrations in fall, freezes, expands, and by spring what was a minor issue has become something that needs real attention. That progression is quiet and easy to miss until it isn't.
We've worked throughout Rice County long enough to know the neighborhoods, the housing stock, and the kinds of problems that come up most often. Lonsdale fits the patterns we see across the region: storm exposure, aging roofs, and homeowners who want a contractor they can trust.
Why choose us
Jon built this business on referrals, and Lonsdale is the kind of community where that matters — word travels fast when a contractor cuts corners or pushes a replacement when a repair would do. Every job Jon runs gets IKO Dynasty Class 3 shingles as the baseline, not as an upsell, because using a better shingle on every roof is easier to stand behind than explaining later why you used a cheaper one.
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 Lonsdale?
Residential roof replacements in Rice County typically range from $8,000 to $15,000. If your home sustained storm damage, insurance may cover most or all of that cost. If your Lonsdale 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 Lonsdale?
In Lonsdale, the window that matters most is the first few weeks after a storm event. Hail leaves distinct impact signatures on shingles, gutters, and soft metals that are easiest to document before additional weather exposure starts to muddy the picture. Minnesota insurance policies generally allow a year to file, but adjusters lean on wear-and-tear arguments more readily the longer time passes between the storm and the inspection. Call us at (507) 581-2557 and we'll get out to you while the evidence is still clean.
Do you handle the insurance claim process for Lonsdale homeowners?
We handle the insurance side of storm damage jobs in Lonsdale from start to finish. That means we're on-site when the adjuster shows up, we bring our own inspection documentation, and we make sure the scope they approve matches what your roof actually needs — not a condensed version. Homeowners who go through adjuster inspections without a contractor present routinely receive lower initial offers than the damage supports, and we work to prevent that at no additional charge.
Is Bold North Exteriors licensed and insured for roofing work in Lonsdale?
Bold North Exteriors holds Minnesota contractor license BC795118, and we carry full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage on every job we run in Lonsdale. We pull permits where required and follow Rice County building codes throughout the project. If a contractor working in your neighborhood can't hand you a license number on the spot, that's a reason to ask more questions before signing anything.
