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 Rush City and across Chisago 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.
Rush City sits in a position where storm systems tracking northeast across the metro tend to maintain intensity rather than dissipate, which means hail events here often hit harder than homeowners expect. The freeze-thaw cycle along the St. Croix River corridor is also worth understanding — repeated temperature swings through late winter and early spring work ice and water into any existing vulnerability at flashings, valleys, and penetrations before you ever see visible damage from inside the house.
We've worked throughout Chisago County long enough to know the neighborhoods, the housing stock, and the kinds of problems that come up most often. Rush City 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 still personally reviews every inspection in Rush City rather than handing it off to a salesperson with a quota, which changes the conversation entirely — if a repair is the right call, that's what you'll hear. The referrals we get from Chisago County homeowners come from that dynamic, not from a marketing budget, and that's the only growth model we're interested in.
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 Rush City?
Roof replacements in Chisago County typically run between $8,500 and $15,000 for a standard residential home depending on square footage, pitch, and materials. If your Rush City 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 Rush City?
Storm documentation degrades faster than most homeowners realize — granule displacement, soft metal hits on vents and flashing, and impact marks on shingles all become harder to distinguish from general wear within a few months of the event. In Rush City specifically, if you were in the path of a storm that moved through Chisago County, call us before you call your insurance company so we can walk the roof first and tell you honestly whether there's a claim worth filing.
Do you handle the insurance claim process for Rush City homeowners?
When there is legitimate damage, the adjuster inspection is where claims get underpaid — not because adjusters are dishonest, but because they're covering a lot of ground quickly and a contractor who's already documented the roof catches things that get missed. We attend the adjuster visit with Rush City homeowners, bring our own photo documentation, and make sure the approved scope reflects what's actually on the roof. There's no additional charge for that.
Is Bold North Exteriors licensed and insured for roofing work in Rush City?
