What your first year in roofing sales looks like

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. New roofing salespeople struggle most when nobody trains them and the pay is commission only. Robust Roofing is built to fix both.

The path

1. Training and shadowing: inspections, documentation and homeowner conversations with an experienced Project Manager.
2. Training toward HAAG certification, which Robust provides.
3. Your own jobs, with the licensed adjuster and the office behind you.

Compensation at Robust Roofing

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.

• Full time: a real career role, based in the North Atlanta metro around Johns Creek.
• No cap: the 70/30 split applies to every job you run, with no ceiling.
• No other fees: no other fees or deductions come out of your pay.
• Split: 70/30 in your favor: 70% to you, 30% to the company.
• 40% more than a 50/50: on the same job, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more than a 50/50 split.
• Base: Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base.

The details of how the base and the split work together are covered in the interview, in writing. For the full comparison, see 70/30 vs 50/50.

Public wage data puts the $75,000 per year base in perspective: it is more than 55 percent above Georgia's $48,170 median wage for all occupations (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Georgia, May 2025).

The support behind every job

• The RoofMap app gives every homeowner a portal for photos, options, colors and payments, so you spend your time on roofs, not paperwork.
• Robust never waives deductibles, which Georgia law forbids, so you sell honestly and sleep well.
• Robust gives 50% of its profit to Gospel-centered ministries. The work you do funds something bigger than a roof.
• 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.
• 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.
