Who does the work: Deltona trade wages

Carpenters (47-2031), 85% of the weighting: a median of $22.44 an hour, 23% below the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $17.85 and $27.17 an hour. About 740 work in the metro. That is 33.7 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.
For general maintenance and repair workers (49-9071, weighted 15%) the local median is $20.59 an hour, which is 14% below the national $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $17.62 and $22.99 an hour. BLS counts 2,930 of them working in the area, 133.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 98.4), so the local bench is deeper than average.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (carpenters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $55 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $55. That is a swing of roughly 3.9% to 4.0% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
