What does a roofing project manager do that a sales-only rep does not?

A roofing Project Manager both sells the job and sees it through to the final walkthrough. At Robust Roofing, the Project Manager is the homeowner's single point of contact from start to finish.

1. Run a free roof inspection and photograph the roof.
2. Document the storm damage.
3. Meet the insurance company's adjuster at the house, with Robust Roofing's in-house licensed adjuster beside you.
4. Submit supplements.
5. Walk the homeowner through options and colors in the RoofMap portal.
6. Coordinate the build; most replacements finish in one day.
7. Do the final walkthrough with the homeowner.

How should a roofing project manager be paid?

In our view, a role that sells and builds the job should share in every job through a strong split and should also have a base. The split rewards the work on each roof. The base reflects that a Project Manager's work runs from the first inspection to the final walkthrough, well past the signature. A strong split also keeps the Project Manager invested in the build going well, not just in the sale.

Robust Roofing pays both. A plan that pays a weak split, or no base at all, asks the person who owns the whole job to carry the risk alone.

How does Robust Roofing pay its Project Managers?

• The split: a 70/30 split, 70% to you, on each job you sell and build.

How does the $75,000 base compare with U.S. wages?

It is well above the typical U.S. wage. The median annual wage for all occupations in the United States was $50,980 in May 2025, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In the Atlanta metro, where the job is based, the figure was $51,170 in the same survey.

That median covers every occupation, so it is a benchmark for the base alone, not a roofing figure. Robust Roofing also pays the 70/30 split, and the interview explains how the two fit together.

What support comes with the role?

Real support comes with it: a licensed Property and Casualty adjuster on staff and training toward HAAG certification, which Robust provides. You do not need roofing experience to start; Robust hires for communication, follow-through and honesty. On the insurance side, you meet the insurance company's adjuster with the in-house licensed adjuster beside you and learn how supplements are written and submitted.

• RoofMap: the app and homeowner portal you use with every homeowner.
• A 50-year labor warranty to sell, from a GAF certified company.
• A trusted name: a 5.0 Google rating across 66 reviews from customers.
• Faith and giving: as a Christian company, Robust Roofing gives 50% of its profit to Gospel-centered missions, and everyone is welcome to apply.
