Keeping the toilet, tub and vanity in place keeps plumbing costs down. Moving them does not.
Contractor fee
A general contractor charges $50-$150 an hour or 10-20% of the project cost.
Local wages behind the labor line
Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 6 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for Vineland is 1.14 times the national level.
For plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters (47-2152, weighted 25%) the local median is $37.05 an hour, which is 21% above the national $30.67. The middle half of them earn between $28.84 and $55.52 an hour. BLS counts 270 of them working in the area, 43.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 30.0), so the local bench is deeper than average.
Tile and stone setters (47-2044) carry 25% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Vineland metro, so we used the New Jersey statewide median: $29.99 an hour against $26.77 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $22.31 and $46.73 an hour.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 20%) the local median is $30.50 an hour, which is 5% above the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $23.87 and $50.65 an hour. BLS counts 180 of them working in the area, 28.9 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Electricians (47-2111), 10% of the weighting: a median of $36.98 an hour, 22% above the US median of $30.38. The middle half of them earn between $28.03 and $58.92 an hour. About 190 work in the metro. That is 30.5 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 48.7 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.
Drywall and ceiling tile installers (47-2081) carry 10% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Vineland metro, so we used the New Jersey statewide median: $36.09 an hour against $28.33 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $25.81 and $55.42 an hour.
For painters, construction and maintenance (47-2141, weighted 10%) the local median is $23.28 an hour, which is in line with the national $23.75. The middle half of them earn between $16.41 and $28.52 an hour. BLS counts 60 of them working in the area, 9.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 14.5), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($55.52 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $1,100. At the 25th percentile ($28.84) it shrinks by about $500. The total moves by 7.5% or 3.3%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.
For context on the local economy, BLS counts 62,300 jobs in the Vineland area. That makes it the 279th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.04% of US employment.
