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 St. Paul and across Ramsey 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.
St. Paul sits in one of the more active hail corridors in the upper Midwest, and Ramsey County sees multiple significant hail events most years — not all of them make the news, but they still leave damage that shortens shingle life. The freeze-thaw cycle here is particularly hard on roofs with any existing weakness: water gets into small cracks, freezes, expands, and turns a minor issue into a structural one before spring arrives. If your roof went through last winter without an inspection, there's a reasonable chance something changed.
Word of mouth drives most of our work in Ramsey County. Homeowners in St. Paul who've worked with us tend to refer neighbors and family members, and that's the business model we've built since 2018. Doing the job right the first time is more efficient than chasing new customers constantly.
Why choose us
Jon runs every job personally, which matters more in a city like St. Paul where older housing stock means no two roofs are exactly alike — a standard checklist isn't enough. Most of our Ramsey County work comes from referrals, which means every inspection has to be honest whether or not it turns into a job. That's not a sales pitch; it's just the only way a small family-owned operation stays in business for the long haul.
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 St. Paul?
Roof replacements in Ramsey County typically run between $10,000 and $17,000. Older St. Paul area homes with steep pitches can run higher. If your St. Paul 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 St. Paul?
Don't wait on it. Hail damage is easiest to document in the days right after a storm, before wind and rain start to blur the evidence that insurers and adjusters look for. Ramsey County sees enough storm activity that adjusters are experienced at distinguishing fresh impact damage from general wear — but that distinction gets harder to make the longer you let it sit. Call us at (507) 581-2557 and we'll get out to St. Paul quickly.
Do you handle the insurance claim process for St. Paul homeowners?
We handle the insurance process from the first call through the final settlement — that includes attending the adjuster inspection and bringing our own documentation so nothing gets missed or undervalued. St. Paul homeowners are sometimes surprised by how much the scope changes when a contractor is present at the adjuster meeting versus when they go through it alone. There's no additional charge for this on storm damage work; it's just part of how we handle every claim.

Bold North Exteriors holds Minnesota contractor license BC795118 and carries full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. We pull permits as required for work in St. Paul and Ramsey County and meet all local code requirements — not because it's optional, but because shortcuts on permitting create problems for homeowners when they sell.
