Company: Total Roofing & Construction Services, Inc.

About Us
Total Roofing & Construction Services has been selling and installing exterior work for over 40 years. Licensed in Illinois and Indiana, with offices in Schererville, Dolton, and Orland Park. Roofing, siding, windows, gutters, and restoration — residential, commercial, and multi-family.
We're not a storm-chasing outfit that shows up after a hail event and disappears. We've been here four decades and we'll be here after your first sale.
The Role
You'll be meeting homeowners and property owners, inspecting exteriors, diagnosing damage, building estimates, and closing work. We generate leads for you — company-provided appointments from marketing, canvassing, and referrals — and we expect you to generate your own too.
The people who do well here treat this like a business, not a job.
What You'll Do
- Run company-provided appointments and self-generated leads
- Perform roof, siding, and exterior inspections and document conditions
- Diagnose storm damage and walk homeowners through the insurance claim process
- Build accurate estimates and present clear, honest proposals
- Close contracts and collect deposits
- Stay with your customer through production, acting as their point of contact
- Ask for referrals and reviews on every completed job
- Track your pipeline and activity in our CRM
What We're Looking For
Required
- Valid driver's license, reliable vehicle, and clean driving record
- Comfortable climbing ladders and walking roofs
- Strong communication skills — you can hold a conversation at a kitchen table
- Self-motivated; you don't need someone telling you to go to work
- Willing to work some evenings and Saturdays, when homeowners are actually home
Preferred but not required
- Prior roofing, exterior, or in-home sales experience
- Insurance restoration or claims knowledge
- Bilingual English/Spanish
We will train the right person with no roofing background. Drive and coachability matter more to us than a resume.
What We Offer
- Company-provided leads and appointments
- Full 52-week training program — product knowledge, insurance process, sales skills
- Uncapped commission
- Vision, dental & health Insurance
- [Vehicle / gas allowance detail]
- Marketing support, branded materials, and a 40-year local reputation behind you
- Year-round work across two states
