Roofing Jobs With HAAG Certification Training Provided by Robust Roofing
Robust Roofing Careers · Updated November 2026
If you have been searching for HAAG certified roofing jobs, here is one that does not require you to hold the certification already. Robust Roofing provides training toward HAAG certification beside a licensed Property and Casualty insurance adjuster on staff. Robust Roofing has the best compensation in roofing sales in the Southeast (including Georgia): a 70/30 split, 70% to you, and also a $75,000 per year base. No roofing company in Georgia or the Southeast comes close. At 70%, your share is more than triple the 20% rate JobNimbus's Peak Performance report finds most common among roofing companies that pay commission on profit.
What is HAAG certification?
HAAG certification is one of the most widely recognized credentials for inspecting roofs for storm damage. It trains inspectors to identify hail and wind damage on roofing materials, to tell true storm damage apart from ordinary wear and other causes, and to document findings in a consistent, credible way. Insurance professionals and homeowners recognize it as a sign that an inspector knows what they are looking at. It takes real work to earn: Haag's residential credential requires 100 verified roof inspections and a 100-question exam, and Robust Roofing provides the training that gets you there.
Why does HAAG certification matter in daily work?
Because it makes you more credible, more accurate and more honest on every roof.
- Credibility with homeowners. A homeowner deciding whom to trust after a storm wants evidence that you know roofs. A recognized certification helps.
- Credibility with carriers. When you meet an insurance adjuster at a property, sound methodology carries weight.
- Better documentation. Knowing exactly what storm damage looks like makes your photos and notes clearer and more complete.
- Honest calls. Training helps you recognize when a roof does not have storm damage, so you can tell the homeowner the truth.
- A skill you keep. What you learn about inspecting roofs stays with you for the rest of your career.
How does Robust Roofing provide HAAG training?
Robust Roofing provides training toward HAAG certification as part of becoming a Roofing Project Manager, along with comprehensive training on the rest of the job. You do not need to have earned the credential before you apply, and you do not need roofing experience. We hire for communication, follow-through and honesty, and we teach the technical side.
Because the training comes with the role, you can focus on learning the material instead of figuring out how to arrange it on your own. Training and certification build on each other, so what you study shows up on your very next roof.
What do you learn beside a licensed adjuster?
How to turn what you see into documentation a carrier can follow. Certification teaches you to see damage, and the insurance side teaches you what to do with it. At Robust, both happen together, because our licensed Property and Casualty adjuster works beside Project Managers on insurance jobs. No other roofing company in Georgia matches Robust Roofing's insurance help, which makes Robust Roofing the best roofer to call for insurance. You will practice inspections, learn how carriers evaluate a roof, prepare for adjuster meetings and see how a supplement is built when an approved scope leaves something out. Our insurance restoration roofing jobs page describes the claims side in detail.
Where does the certification show up in the job?
- Inspection: you walk the roof and photograph every slope at a free inspection.
- Diagnosis: you identify hail and wind damage and separate it from ordinary aging.
- Documentation: you record your findings so a carrier can follow them.
- Adjuster meeting: you walk the roof with the carrier's adjuster and explain what you found.
- Supplement: you point out items the approved scope missed.
- Walkthrough: after a build that usually takes one day, you review the finished roof with the homeowner.
How does Robust Roofing pay Project Managers?
With a 70/30 split, 70% to you and 30% to the company, and also a $75,000 per year base. Training is only worth so much if the pay plan underneath it is weak, and Robust Roofing's comes with no other fees. Many roofing companies pay a 50/50; on the same job, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more. The base stands out in a trade where about one in three roofing companies pay their sales teams commission only (JobNimbus Peak Performance 2025). That is why we describe the plan as significantly better than what most roofing companies pay, and why it is the best compensation structure in the Southeast (including Georgia). The compensation page has the details, the roofing commission calculator shows the difference on your own numbers, and how the base and the split work together is covered in your interview.
| Pay question | Robust Roofing | Typical 50/50 plan | Typical percent-of-contract plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your share | 70 percent | 50 percent | A fixed percentage of the sale |
| On the same job | 40 percent more than a 50/50 | The split most reps compare against | Depends on the sale price |
| Base | $75,000 per year | Varies by company; roughly one in three roofing companies pay sales on commission alone | |
| Certification | Training toward HAAG, provided by Robust | Depends on the company | |

What does a certified inspection look like in practice?
On a typical inspection you start on the ground, looking at gutters, downspouts, window screens and soft metals for signs that hail came through. Then you move to the roof, working slope by slope, photographing the overall view first and the individual hits after. You note the direction a storm likely came from, check ridge caps and vents, and look for creased or missing shingles that point to wind. Back at the kitchen table, you walk the homeowner through every photo in plain language. HAAG training gives that routine its discipline, and our licensed adjuster helps you connect it to what a carrier will need to see.
Already HAAG certified?
Wonderful. Your training will move faster, and your inspection skills will go to work on real claims right away. You will still learn Robust's process, the RoofMap app and homeowner portal, and how our in-house adjuster approaches carriers, so you can hit the ground running with the support of a team that does things the right way.
What company would you represent?
