What local crews earn in Lexington Park
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 6 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Lexington Park the blend is 0.93.
Plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters (47-2152), 25% of the weighting: a median of $27.74 an hour, 10% below the US median of $30.67. The middle half of them earn between $23.62 and $35.64 an hour. About 260 work in the metro. That is 36.8 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 30.0 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
Tile and stone setters (47-2044) carry 25% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Lexington Park metro, so we used the Maryland statewide median: $21.96 an hour against $26.77 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $18.57 and $25.00 an hour.
Carpenters (47-2031), 20% of the weighting: a median of $30.23 an hour, 4% above the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $26.36 and $35.38 an hour. About 210 work in the metro. That is 29.7 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.
For electricians (47-2111, weighted 10%) the local median is $29.59 an hour, which is in line with the national $30.38. The middle half of them earn between $24.62 and $44.46 an hour. BLS counts 340 of them working in the area, 48.1 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 48.7), so the local bench is about average.
Drywall and ceiling tile installers (47-2081) carry 10% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Lexington Park metro, so we used the Maryland statewide median: $26.29 an hour against $28.33 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $22.96 and $29.22 an hour.
Painters, construction and maintenance (47-2141), 10% of the weighting: a median of $24.40 an hour, in line with the US median of $23.75. The middle half of them earn between $21.94 and $29.24 an hour.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $480 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $250. That is a swing of roughly 1.9% to 3.5% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
Lexington Park has 70,650 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 259th by size among the 300 metros on this site.
