Commission-Based Roofing Sales Career
Role Overview
Sales Representatives guide homeowners through the roofing process — from inspection to signed contract — delivering professionalism, clarity, and confidence.
You’re paid commission on every roof and repair you sell.
Income Potential
Estimated Annual Earnings:
$65,000 – $120,000+
That is the typical range for our sales reps, paid on commission at these rates:
- 8% commission on full roofing jobs
- 15% commission on roofing repairs
- 20% commission on home improvements sold
- High performers may qualify for increased commission rates (up to 10% on full roofing jobs)
No cap on commission. What you earn comes down to your time and how efficiently you work. Our top reps sell over $2 million in roofing a year and earn six figures. At 8% commission, every $1 million you sell is about $80,000 in pay, plus benefits and more when you guide homeowners to upgrades.
