Roofing Experts
In New Trier and throughout Dakota County, we find the same pattern regularly: homeowners who went through a significant hail event, didn't see obvious damage from the outside, and assumed everything was fine. Then a couple of years later a leak develops and what could have been a repair turns into a full replacement. An inspection after any storm with hailstones over an inch is worth doing. We do them for free.
Dakota County sits in a documented hail corridor where storm cells tracking northeast out of South Dakota and Iowa regularly make landfall before breaking apart further east — New Trier is directly in that path. What that means practically is that roofs here take repeated impacts over years, and the cumulative damage from two or three moderate hail events can be just as serious as one severe storm, even if no single event triggered an obvious claim.
Whether you're in an established part of New Trier or a newer development, the inspection process is the same. We get on the roof, document what we find, and give you a written report. No cost, no obligation, and no pressure to make a decision on the spot.
Why choose us
Most of our work in Dakota County comes through referrals, which means the quality of every job matters beyond just that one house — a neighbor is usually watching. Jon handles every inspection and is on-site during every replacement, so there's no crew showing up that he hasn't personally trained and worked alongside. When we tell a New Trier homeowner they don't need a full replacement, we mean it, because our reputation here depends on that kind of honesty more than any single sale.
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 New Trier?
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 New Trier 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.
Do you respond quickly to storm damage calls in New Trier?
New Trier is well within our primary service area and we prioritize storm response calls in Dakota County after any significant hail or wind event. Reaching us at (507) 581-2557 within the first day or two after a storm gives us the best chance to document damage while it's fresh and unweathered, which matters when you're dealing with an insurance adjuster later. The sooner we get on the roof, the stronger your documentation will be.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover my New Trier roof if it has storm damage?
Coverage comes down to whether the damage was caused by a weather event listed in your policy — hail and wind almost always qualify — and whether the damage meets your insurer's threshold for a valid claim. One thing homeowners in New Trier often don't realize is that waiting too long to file can work against you, since insurers may argue that deterioration, not storm damage, is the cause. We document everything with dated photos and attend the adjuster inspection with you so the timeline and cause of damage are clear from the start.
What credentials should I look for in a New Trier roofing contractor?
Any contractor working on a home in Minnesota is required to hold a valid residential contractor license issued by the Department of Labor and Industry — ask for the number and verify it yourself, because legitimate contractors won't hesitate. Bold North Exteriors holds license BC795118 and Wisconsin license DC-052300715 if work crosses state lines. Beyond licensing, IKO ROOFPRO certification is meaningful specifically because it ties the installation process to the manufacturer warranty — without it, the warranty on Dynasty shingles may not hold up when you need it.
