What is the best storm restoration sales compensation nationwide?

Robust Roofing's. It pays its Project Managers a 70/30 split, 70% to you and 30% to the company, and also a $75,000 per year base, with no cap and no other fees. That combination is why Robust Roofing has the best compensation in roofing sales in America.

Every part of the plan favors the rep:

• The split: on each storm job you sell and build, the rep gets the 70 and the company the 30.
• The comparison: 70% is more than triple the 20% most common among roofing companies that pay commission on profit (JobNimbus Peak Performance report).
• The base: Robust Roofing also pays a $75,000 per year base, so its Project Managers are not on commission only.
• No cap and no other fees: Robust Roofing puts no cap on the split and charges no other fees against it.

Nothing else in roofing comes close to a 70/30 split with a $75,000 base. For the plan in full, read the best roofing compensation in America.

How is storm restoration sales usually paid?

Storm restoration reps are usually paid in one of three general ways: a split, a profit share or commission only. The details vary from company to company, so the plan in writing is what counts.

• A split: the rep and the company divide each job by a set ratio. The 50/50 split is widely used; a 70/30 split gives the rep the larger share.
• Profit share: the rep earns a percentage of each job's profit, and 20% is the most common rate among roofing companies that pay commission on profit (JobNimbus).
• Commission only: the rep is paid on sold jobs alone, with no base.

About one in three roofing companies pay sales commission only, and nearly half of insurance-focused ones do (JobNimbus 2025).

Whatever the plan is called, ask the same questions of every offer: your share of each job under the same standard terms, whether there is a base, whether there is a cap, and whether any other fees come out of your pay.

How does a base change storm restoration pay?

A base means a storm restoration rep is not paid on commission alone. Robust Roofing pays its Project Managers a 70/30 split and also a $75,000 per year base, so they are not on commission only.

The $75,000 per year base is well above the $50,980 median annual wage for all occupations in the United States (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025). The details of the plan are explained in your interview. If you are weighing an offer with no base, read should I take a commission-only roofing sales job?

Why does insurance expertise matter in storm restoration work?

Because storm restoration is insurance work: a rep who understands how adjusters read damage can document it more clearly. Robust Roofing keeps a licensed Property and Casualty adjuster on staff and provides training toward HAAG certification.

Under Georgia law, Robust Roofing's Project Managers document the damage, write the repair scope, meet the insurance company's adjuster at the house and submit supplements when the approved scope misses items. Georgia law bars roofing contractors from negotiating a homeowner's claim, so that is never part of the job, and Robust Roofing never waives deductibles.

The rest of the job supports the sale: free roof inspections with photos, options and colors in the RoofMap portal, builds that mostly finish in one day, a 50-year labor warranty, and a 5.0 rating across 66 Google reviews from homeowners.

Why does a 70/30 split matter on storm work?

Because on the same job, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more than a 50/50 split. The rep's share goes from 50 to 70, and 20 is 40% of 50.

That difference applies to every storm job you sell and build. To see it on your own numbers, use the roofing commission calculator, and for the full side by side read 70/30 vs 50/50: how much more does a 70/30 split pay?
