Roofers, is it fair to delay payment when the customer hasn’t paid yet?

I’ve been helping with bringing in new enquiries, follow-up, local search visibility, and neighborhood outreach.

Within the first few weeks, 3 jobs came through without paid ads.

The issue now is payment. The contractor says some customers are paying late or not paying what he expected, so he is also delaying what he owes me.

If the agreed work was completed and the jobs came through, should my payment depend on when his customers pay him?

Or should those be treated as two separate things?

Curious how roofing business owners would handle this.

Roofers, what matters more: better leads or faster follow-up?
