Roofing Experts
Bold North Exteriors serves Tonka Bay and the broader Hennepin County area. We're a family-owned roofing and exteriors company based in Farmington, and we've been doing this work since 2018. When we come out to Tonka Bay, we get on the roof and actually look at it rather than giving you an assessment from the driveway. We document what we find with photos, write up a clear report, and tell you what needs to be done without padding the estimate. Every replacement we do uses IKO Dynasty Class 3 impact-resistant shingles as our standard product, not an upgrade.
Tonka Bay sits on a peninsula surrounded by Lake Minnetonka, and that waterfront exposure creates conditions that accelerate roof wear in ways that don't show up on inland homes — repeated freeze-thaw cycles along the shoreline, moisture-heavy air, and wind off the water that works at shingle edges over time. Ice damming is a real issue here in winter, and by the time a homeowner notices water intrusion at the eaves, the damage to the decking underneath is often already done. If your roof hasn't been looked at since last winter, it's worth knowing what you're working with before the next cold season starts.
We serve homeowners throughout Tonka Bay and the surrounding Hennepin 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
Tonka Bay is a tight-knit community, and most of the work we get there comes from a neighbor telling a neighbor. Jon has been out to homes on the peninsula enough times to know what the lake-side exposure does to roofs over a 10 or 15 year period, and he'll tell you plainly whether a repair makes sense or whether you're patching something that needs to be replaced. We'd rather give you an honest answer once than have you call someone else in two years.
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.

We built this business on repeat customers and referrals. That's still true today.
Don't just take our word for it - hear from real Minnesota homeowners who've experienced our no- pressure, transparent estimate process.
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.
Beth H.
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 Tonka Bay?
Roof replacements in Hennepin County typically range from $10,000 to $18,000 for a standard residential home, with urban properties and complex rooflines on the higher end. If your Tonka Bay 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 quickly can you schedule a free inspection in Tonka Bay?
Most of the time we can get to a Tonka Bay property within two to three business days for a standard inspection. If there's been a significant hail or wind event that hit the Lake Minnetonka area, we prioritize those calls and typically get out within 24 to 48 hours because the insurance claim window matters. Call (507) 581-2557 and we'll tell you exactly when we can be there.
What should I expect at the insurance adjuster inspection for my Tonka Bay home?
When the adjuster comes out to your Tonka Bay home, they're working from their own checklist, and they don't always get on the roof or catch everything we documented during our inspection. We bring our photo report, go up with the adjuster when possible, and make sure what we found is part of the conversation — particularly anything related to the decking or flashing that's easy to miss from a visual scan. Homeowners who have us there tend to see more complete approvals than those who go through the inspection alone. There's no extra charge for us to be there.
How do I verify that a roofing contractor is legitimate before hiring them in Tonka Bay?
The Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry keeps a public contractor license lookup — put in a name or license number and you'll see immediately whether they're current and in good standing. Bold North Exteriors holds MN license BC795118, and we'll give you that number without hesitation because it checks out. Beyond the license, ask whether they carry liability and workers' comp insurance, and whether they'll put the full scope of work in writing before you hand over any money.
