Roofing Jobs in Juneau, Alaska

Roofer pay for the Juneau job search

Survey geography: Alaska. This is a statewide benchmark, not a city-specific wage estimate. O*NET’s 2025 BLS wage data for roofers (SOC 47-2181) show the following distribution.

Among the published regional rows for Alaska, Anchorage, AK has a median of $31.61 per hour and Alaska nonmetropolitan area has a median of $31.64. These are regional benchmarks, not a ranking of employers or a forecast of vacancies. Compare the worksite geography before treating a statewide figure as local pay.

The middle half of reported wages falls between the 25th and 75th percentiles. These are not experience levels or promised offers. The roofer occupation does not provide a salary benchmark for sales representatives, estimators, or construction managers. Annual estimates should not be read as guaranteed annual earnings for seasonal work.

Plan your Juneau search around the worksite

A company address, dispatch yard, and roof project can be different places. Ask where the paid day starts, whether you report to the same yard each morning, and how often crews change sites. Use the nearby communities above to compare routes, then check drive time against the offered schedule. For a traveling crew, clarify lodging, per diem, and return-home expectations.

For weather context, review NOAA’s Alaska climate summary. Ask the employer how local conditions affect start times, weather stoppages, and the weeks of work available. Climate information alone does not establish that a company is hiring or that storm work is available.

Match your application to the roofing role

For installation or service work, describe the roof systems you have actually worked on, repair tasks you can perform under supervision, and your experience with jobsite safety procedures. New applicants can ask whether helper roles include paid training and a clear progression of responsibilities. The BLS roofer career guide explains typical duties and training routes.

Sales applicants should compare base pay, commissions, lead sources, territory, and when commissions become payable. Estimators and supervisors should clarify project size, site visits, production handoffs, and reporting duties. Use the wage table for roofer field positions; evaluate other occupations against the actual role and written offer.

Before accepting an offer

• Confirm employee or subcontractor status and how pay is calculated.
• Ask which travel time, tools, and protective equipment the employer covers.
• Confirm expected weekly hours, overtime terms, and weather-delay arrangements.
• Check the posting date and application instructions; the guide is not a promise of an open vacancy.
