About Foundation Building Materials
Foundation Building Materials, now part of Lowe's, supplies the trades that finish a building's walls and ceilings: drywall, framing, ceiling, insulation and plaster contractors buy wallboard, steel studs and track, ceiling grid and tile, insulation, lath, stucco, EIFS, FRP panels, tools and fasteners from its branches, with commercial doors, frames and hardware sold through its sister company Unified Door & Hardware Group. The branch is the sales unit. Outside reps work a territory of assigned contractor accounts face to face, keep up with the people inside each contractor who steer its buying, and call on architects, designers and building owners to get product into the job, often presenting alongside a manufacturer's rep. Inside sales staff the counter, phones and email, turning walk-ins and quote requests into priced orders, booking deliveries and freight, and upselling in step with the outside rep, and the job also covers showroom upkeep, stock counts, forklift work and the cash drawer. Outside reps answer to a branch manager or a district or regional sales manager, an architectural specialist for specialty ceiling products takes large commercial projects from drawings and specs through quotes, submittals and delivery for a regional sales manager, and postings prefer building materials sales experience (insulation for some outside seats), call-in sales experience for inside seats and Spanish at some branches.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

Pay at Foundation Building Materials
Stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30From our research: stated by the company, checked 30 Oct 2026
Read from its postings on 30 Oct 2026: Outside sales postings that print pay give a yearly base range and mark the seat as eligible for commission, without saying what the commission is paid on or how it is sized; several outside postings print no figure at all. Inside sales is paid by the hour, a range per branch that the postings tie to experience, qualifications and the local cost of living, and some inside postings carry a bonus line left blank. The architectural specialist posting gives a single base, a target bonus set as a share of that base and an expected total compensation range, and says the seat carries no equity. Ask whether outside commission is figured on sales or gross margin, how house accounts and accounts inherited from another rep are credited, whether a draw or guarantee covers the months a territory takes to build, how a vehicle and fuel are handled, and for inside seats whether overtime is paid and whether a branch bonus applies.
