Top paying roofing companies in Atlanta

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. Atlanta roofing companies compete hard for good salespeople, and pay plans range from commission only to percent of contract to 50/50. Robust Roofing's plan is the simplest of them and unusually generous.

The comparison that matters

Two plans can both look generous and pay very differently. On a 50/50 split you keep half; on Robust Roofing's 70/30 split you keep 70, so on the same job you take home 40% more. Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base, and there is no cap.

Compensation at Robust Roofing

The role pays two ways. First, a 70/30 split in your favor: you keep 70 and the company keeps 30, with no other fees. Second, Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base. There is no cap. Against the closest competition's 50/50, the split reps in Georgia usually hear about, a 70/30 split pays 40% more on the same job, which makes it unusually generous by any measure.

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.

How the structure compares

These are the plan types you will run into when you interview around Georgia. The comparison columns are general structures, not named companies.

For scale: the JobNimbus Peak Performance report found 20% to be the most common rate among roofing companies that pay commission on profit, and Robust Roofing's 70% is more than triple it. To see the 70/30 against a 50/50 on your own numbers, use the roofing commission calculator. Named Georgia companies are compared on the roofing pay comparison page.

The Atlanta metro's median annual wage across all occupations was $51,170 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025). A $75,000 per year base clears that by roughly 47 percent, and the 70/30 split is a separate part of the role.

Why people want to work here

• Robust never waives deductibles, which Georgia law forbids, so you sell honestly and sleep well.
• The RoofMap app gives every homeowner a portal for photos, options, colors and payments, so you spend your time on roofs, not paperwork.
• Robust provides comprehensive training, including training toward HAAG certification. No roofing experience is required.
• 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.
• 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.
