Before you apply

Ask for the exact service territory and distinguish hourly field work from commission sales. Check whether the role is employee or subcontractor work and who provides tools, safety equipment, and training.

Work areas to compare

Dallas–Fort Worth

For a Dallas–Fort Worth posting, confirm whether the day centers on residential replacement, commercial installation, or repair. Check the crew’s usual work radius.

Houston

In Houston, compare field and service work by dispatch point, on-call expectations, and whether travel between jobs is paid.

San Antonio

For San Antonio openings, ask how estimating, project oversight, or sales duties are divided and whether leads or a vehicle are provided.

Texas conditions and the offer

NOAA’s Texas summary describes Gulf humidity, western dryness, and strong heat across many regions. Ask how the employer plans around these conditions; weather alone does not establish hiring demand. Read the NOAA state summary.

  • Field work: compare hourly pay, overtime terms, equipment, and paid travel.
  • Sales: ask about base pay, leads, commission timing, and cancellations.
  • Estimating and leadership: clarify territory, reporting duties, and vehicle use.

Compare an offer with the row that covers its actual worksite. A metro may cross a state border, and nonmetropolitan estimates cover a broader area than one town. An omitted region has no row in the table checked here; its wage should not be inferred from a neighboring metro.

These estimates concern employee roofers. They do not establish sales commissions, self-employed contractor income, prevailing-wage obligations, or guaranteed annual earnings. Benefits, overtime, paid travel and seasonal hours affect an offer’s value. The median is not a legal minimum.
