Careers · Now Hiring in WI & IA

Build a career with a crew that stands behind it.

Buckshot runs its own crews on every job, no subcontracting. That means steady, year-round work with a 47-year family company, not another season chasing storms for a 1099 check. If you take pride in doing it right, there's a place for you here.

Why Buckshot01 / Why

More than a paycheck for the season.

A lot of roofing work is seasonal and subbed out. We're built the opposite way: our own crews, real standards, and a family name on every job.

Steady work

An established 1979 company, not a seasonal storm operation that vanishes when the weather clears.

Our own crews

You work for Buckshot directly as W-2, not a subbed-out 1099 bouncing between companies.

Learn the best

Build under GAF Master Elite systems, the top 2% of roofers, with proven standards.

Local roots

Work close to home across WI and IA, for a company your neighbors can find tomorrow.

The Standard · Earned, Not Given
"Treat every roof like it's going over your own family's heads."

We hold the crew to the same standard we hold the work. That standard is the whole reason a family has put its name on every job since 1979.

Q.01Is this W-2 work or 1099?+
Our crews are Buckshot's own. You work for us directly, not as a subbed-out 1099. We run our own crews on every job, which keeps quality consistent and lets us stand behind the work.
Q.02Is the work seasonal or year-round?+
We're an established family company that's been here since 1979 and is licensed across 24 states, so the work is steady, not tied to a single storm season.

Experience helps for crew and project-manager roles, but we also hire general labor and apprentices and train them hands-on. If you're willing to learn and show up, apply and let's talk.
