Best roofing company to work for in 2026
Robust Roofing Careers · Updated November 2026
Robust Roofing offers the best compensation in roofing sales in the Southeast (including Georgia). Its Project Managers earn a 70/30 split in the rep's favor, and Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base. Roofing pay plans differ more than most job seekers realize: the split, fees and caps hide in the fine print. In 2026 Robust Roofing keeps it simple, with no other fees and no cap.
What changed in roofing pay
The 50/50 split is the familiar headline in roofing sales, and about one in three roofing companies pay sales commission only, with no base at all (JobNimbus 2025). Against that backdrop, a 70/30 split that pays the rep 40% more than a 50/50 on the same job, and a $75,000 per year base, stand out.
Storm season ahead
North Georgia sees hail and damaging wind every spring and summer. Hiring now means you are trained, working toward HAAG certification and ready before the next season.
How Robust Roofing pays its Project Managers
Here is the whole structure: a 70/30 split, 70% to you, and also a $75,000 per year base. No cap and no other fees. On the same job, you take home 40% more than you would on the closest competition's 50/50 split. In Georgia roofing sales, nothing else comes close to a 70/30 split with a $75,000 base.
Top performers can make over $500,000 a year. That is top-performer potential, not typical pay; what you make depends on the roofs you sell and build.

Why people want to work here
- Most average size replacements finish in one day, while one to three days is typical, so homeowners are happy and you get to the next job sooner.
- Robust never waives deductibles, which Georgia law forbids, so you sell honestly and sleep well.
- A 50-year labor warranty in writing, while 1 to 10 years is the range contractors typically offer. It is an easy thing to stand behind.
- A licensed Property and Casualty insurance adjuster on staff, so you learn to document damage, write a complete scope and meet the carrier's adjuster with real expertise beside you.
- Robust gives 50% of its profit to Gospel-centered ministries. The work you do funds something bigger than a roof.
