Roofing Project Manager Salary in Georgia: What Robust Roofing Pays and Why
Robust Roofing Careers · Updated November 2026
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. On the same job, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more than the closest competition's 50/50 split, and no roofing company in Georgia or the Southeast comes close. Search for a roofing project manager salary in Georgia and you will find figures that blend very different jobs into a single number. A more useful approach is to look at how a specific role is paid and why. At Robust Roofing, the structure is why the plan is considered the most rep-friendly pay plan in North Georgia roofing: its 70% is more than triple the 20% rate JobNimbus's Peak Performance report finds most common among roofing companies that pay commission on profit.
Why salary searches are hard to trust in roofing
"Roofing project manager" means different things at different companies. Salary listings tend to lump them together, which is why the figures you find online can feel random. Before comparing any number, figure out which kind of job it actually describes.
Production project managers
At many companies, a production project manager runs crews and schedules after someone else has sold the job. The role is operational. It is often paid as a straight salary or an hourly wage, and it usually has no direct share in the profit of the jobs it manages.
Storm restoration project managers
In storm restoration, the project manager title often describes someone who owns the homeowner relationship from the first inspection to the final walkthrough. They inspect, document damage, meet the insurance company's adjuster, help the homeowner choose materials and coordinate the build. Pay for these roles is usually tied to the profit of the jobs they run, sometimes with a base and sometimes without one. JobNimbus's 2025 Peak Performance data shows about one in three roofing companies pay their sales teams commission only, and nearly half of insurance-focused roofers do.
The Robust Roofing role is the second kind. It is a full-time Roofing Project Manager position in storm restoration, and the pay reflects that.
What Robust Roofing pays
- Base: $75,000 per year.
- Split: 70/30, 70% to you and 30% to the company, which pays 40% more than a 50/50 on the same job.
The role has a $75,000 per year base, and it also has a 70/30 split. Top performers can make over $500,000 a year. That is top-performer potential, not typical pay, because it depends on work that has not happened yet. How the base and the split relate to each other is explained during your interview.
Why the split is the part to study
When a project manager role is paid on the jobs you run, the most important number is the split. A 50/50 split is widely used in roofing sales: half of each job to the rep, half to the company. Robust Roofing pays a 70/30 split instead, 70% to you and 30% to the company, with no other fees.
On the same job, that means the rep earns 40% more than on a 50/50. Over a year of roofs the gap is large, and the roofing commission calculator illustrates it on your own numbers. Our guide to roofing sales commission structures walks through each common plan in more depth.
Significantly better than what most roofing companies pay
We say that with confidence, and we tie it to concrete facts rather than adjectives. The split is 70/30, 70% to you. That is 40% more than a 50/50 on the same job, and 70% is more than triple the 20% most common among roofers paying on profit (JobNimbus). The role also carries a $75,000 per year base. A 70/30 split by itself would make a plan stand out. A 70/30 split and a base in the same role is what sets Robust apart from the commission-only and 50/50 structures common in roofing, and it is why the plan is the best compensation structure in the Southeast (including Georgia).
| How the role is paid | Robust Roofing | Typical 50/50 plan | Typical percent-of-contract plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base | $75,000 per year | Not every company offers one; about one in three roofing companies pay sales commission only | |
| Split | 70/30, 70% to you | 50/50, half to the rep | A fixed slice of the contract price |
| On the same job | 40% more than a 50/50 | The baseline | Depends on the percentage |

How to compare salary offers fairly
If you are weighing several roofing project manager offers in Georgia, put them on the same footing before you compare. Write down three things for each: the base, if there is one; the split; and what support you get to finish jobs well, such as claims help and build speed. A posting that opens with a big number but cannot explain its split clearly deserves caution. A role that answers all three in plain language, the way we try to, gives you something solid to decide on. Our questions to ask about roofing sales pay page turns this into a checklist.
What the job involves day to day
- Meet homeowners and run free roof inspections, photographing every slope.
- Document hail and wind damage clearly enough that an insurance carrier can follow it.
- Meet the insurance company's adjuster and submit supplements alongside Robust's in-house licensed Property and Casualty adjuster.
- Guide homeowners through options and colors in the RoofMap portal.
- Coordinate the build. Most replacements are finished in one day.
- Complete the final walkthrough with the homeowner.
Through every step, you are the homeowner's single point of contact.

You do not need a construction management degree or a background in roofing. Robust provides training toward HAAG certification and comprehensive training, and you learn the insurance side from a licensed adjuster on staff at a company whose insurance help no other Georgia roofer matches.
