How bath remodelers pay design consultants

Base plus commission
A salary floor with commission on top. Common for design consultants who run pre-set appointments.
Percent of sale
Home improvement commissions typically run 3-6% of sold revenue. Compare plans on the leads and support you give, not just the percentage.
Bonuses on add-ons
SPIFFs on accessories, safety features or premium wall systems pay the consultant to present the full job, not the cheapest version.

Steady seasonSpringSteady demand. A good stretch for a new consultant to run real appointments.
Slow seasonSummerPrepare. Time to learn your price book and financing before fall.
Busy seasonFallDone-before-the-holidays deadlines. Proposals that wait miss them.

FAQ

Hiring bath remodeling sales reps: questions owners ask.

What does a bath design consultant earn?
There's no bath-only figure. W-2 sales reps at residential builders and remodelers earn a median $64,150. One bath company advertised $100k/yr + commission + bonus for a design consultant. That's an ad, not what reps earned.
Do you recruit for one-call bath brands and franchises?
Yes. Franchise owners and independent bath remodelers hire the same seat: a consultant who can run a pre-set appointment and close on the visit.
Base plus commission or straight commission?
Either works. A base helps you hire experienced people who can't go months without a paycheck. Straight commission puts more risk on the rep, and for a first sales hire it can attract reps who push underpriced deals.
Where do good bath consultants come from?
Mostly from bath remodeling itself: consultants at bath or kitchen brands with a one-call close, comfortable with financing. They're employed and not on job boards, so we headhunt them. After that, other one-call in-home sales: windows, siding, basement waterproofing, and solar closers changing trades.
How do you check a consultant's close rate?
We verify their close-rate history, check pay history against commission statements or W-2s, and run reference checks. Ask what their close rate was counted on: confirmed appointments, raw leads or self-generated. Role-plays are yours to run.
How fast can you fill a design consultant seat?
We aim to have a first candidate in front of you within 7 days of onboarding and getting your job description. A typical hire takes 21 days. Both vary by role and market, and on how much design work you expect from the consultant.
Do you place bath remodeling sales managers?
Yes, managers who coach the presentation, watch cancels and can still run an appointment. Same three checks: close-rate history, pay history and references.
