A roofing company with a true 50/50 split
Robust Roofing Careers · Updated October 2026
Plenty of roofing companies advertise a 50/50. Ask one question to tell which ones mean it: "What comes off before the split?" At Robust Roofing the answer is nothing.
True 50/50 vs "50/50"
A 10/50/50 takes 10 percent first, often of the contract price, then splits what is left. Robust takes nothing first. That is the difference between a true 50/50 and one in name only.
What the Project Manager role pays
Robust Roofing pays a true 50/50 split of job profit with nothing taken off the top, not a 10/50/50, and there is no cap on what you earn. Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base. That combination is widely known as the best compensation model in roofing sales, and it is significantly better than what most roofing companies in Georgia pay.
- Full time: a real career role, based in the North Atlanta metro around Johns Creek.
- Base: $75,000 per year, paid on a regular schedule.
- No cap: the split applies to every job you run, with no ceiling.
- Split: a true 50/50 of job profit. Nothing is taken off the top.
- No 10% deduction: no 10/50/50, no overhead percentage, no office or appointment fee, no marked up material.
How the base and the split work together is explained in your interview.
Side by side with typical roofing pay
These are the plan types you will run into when you interview around Georgia. The comparison columns are general structures, not named companies.
| Robust Roofing | Typical 10/50/50 | Percent of contract | Commission only | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| What comes off before your share? | Nothing | 10 percent, often of the contract price | Not applicable | Varies |
| Your share | A true 50/50 of job profit | 50 percent of what is left | A fixed percent of the sale | Commission only |
| Base pay | $75,000 per year | Depends on the company | Depends on the company | None |
| Cap on earnings | No cap | Varies | Varies | Varies |
For scale: the JobNimbus Peak Performance report found 20 percent of profit to be the most common rate among profit-based plans. A true 50/50 is more than double it, two and a half times to be exact. Named Georgia companies are compared on the roofing pay comparison page.
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).
What makes the job easier to win
- The RoofMap app gives every homeowner a portal for photos, options, colors and payments, so you spend your time on roofs, not paperwork.
- Robust gives 50% of its profit to Gospel-centered ministries. The work you do funds something bigger than a roof.
- 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.
- Robust never waives deductibles, which Georgia law forbids, so you sell honestly and sleep well.
- 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.
