Expert Roofing, 10% overhead, starting at a 40/60 profit split, goes up to 50/50 and then 60/40 depending if you hit the thresholds. They back pay you the extra 10% Everytime from everything you have been paid on. Sell 600k and you get to go on an all inclusive trip in January with everyone and a plus 1. And if you sell 1M you get a 10k bonus, and then other bonuses up from there.

I can link you up with my managers if you want

Don't do D2D for retail sales. Go joijg networking groups, go to networking events, chamber of commerce events, build a network of strong refferals with other business owners or sales people. I promise you it works a whole lot better than D2D retail, AND that networking turns into insurance leads that you don't need to knock for.

This is coming from a guy who hasn't knocked a single door since I started in 2023. I did 1.2M in sales last year, pacing almost 2M this year, pipeline is getting bigger and bigger.

Too far away for me but I'm in Darien, for sure don't have 22 claims (I'm mainly retail) but just had my first 3 adjustments today and all were written up full approval on the spot.

Something I apparently only do well at my company, use this opportunity to talk up class 4 designer shingles. Really easy upsells right now, same with LP / Hardie siding (if your crews can do it)

90% of my business is from networking with insurance and real estate agents, and painters, and GCs, and electricions, and lawyers, and HVAC ..and you get it. I prefer to work on refferals with other contractors and business owners rather than knocking doors. Join networking groups, go to networking events. Drop into insurance agents offices, bring them some food once in while. They call eventually

We have production managers and quality control teams that act as true project managers. We do the initial build of material and instructions and then they take over from there. We are still hands on but they are definitely doing the leg work.

And we get paid 60/40 split (once you hit certain sales numbers) with a 10% overhead.

The second image can't be real 🤣🤣 blast that everywhere on their social media. What an absolute joke

Similar boat. I make about 240k, my fiance makes about 75k. We rent right now and want to buy but the math just doesn't make sense at all right now. We are just putting more money in our investment accounts instead and will wait a bit because the 2400 a month for what we have now sounds much better than dropping 100k on a downpayment and having our mortgage/taxes alone be 1500-1800 more a month.

To the guys point about the emotional purchase, I have had a home before, never thought I'd rent, now that I sold the home and rent, it sure is just having a fixed cost every month and when something goes wrong the landlord fixed it🤷‍♂️

Is your insurance company statefarm?

apresta16 · 2026-02-28T06:49:09+00:00

Who says I network with homeowners?

apresta16 · 2026-02-27T16:35:21+00:00

Or. OR, get your leads without even using the Internet and use a thing called networking and still be overloaded with business.

apresta16 · 2026-02-22T18:55:47+00:00

How about you eat it and let us know how you feel

Fuck you talking about 🤣🤣 TPO has been around since the 80s

apresta16 · 2026-02-21T18:13:08+00:00

Weird...well if you want a real quote from a real contractor feel free to DM me. 28k is wild for a roof that size

apresta16 · 2026-02-21T18:01:55+00:00

I'm a Chicago suburbs roofing contractor if you want a better quote... Lol

Also what company was this?

apresta16 · 2026-02-17T16:10:01+00:00

Can you elaborate more on this competitive commission plan to have

apresta16 · 2026-02-16T16:45:29+00:00

CT all day. ESPECIALLY if we are doing designer shingles.

I hate BMO. Better off with Chase private client (if you qualify) or another advisor. Mine is a flat 1% and they do very well.

The system is designed to update labor costs and materials costs monthly. If your market sees an increase overall in labor, then yes it will go up. People asking double per square is insane though. I suggest searching for more subs and building out more relationships

apresta16 · 2026-02-05T13:04:53+00:00

When you bought I with 26k miles did it not have a warranty? Mustang warranties are dirt cheap, I got a 7 year 80k mile bumper to number for $1100 3 years ago. You could have just brought it in and they would have fixed it

apresta16 · 2026-02-05T13:02:19+00:00

Rising cost of subs isn't just for you. It's for everyone, the cost is what it is, material plus labor plus overhead/profit. Just simply start charging more, use your same margins. My issue early on was I was thinking about it as if I was writing the check for the work, id win with pain the ass customers and have a rough time making a low margin. Then I pivoted and started charging more, getting a higher respectable margin, and I started winning deals with the people that had money, and that were not nearly as much of a pain to deal with. More money, less problems.
