Climate numbers on this page come from NOAA's 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals at the nearest suitable station, Las Vegas Air Terminal (5 miles from the city center). They are 30-year averages, so any one year can run hotter, colder or wetter.

Who does the work: Las Vegas trade wages
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 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 Las Vegas the blend is 0.88.
Sheet metal workers (47-2211), 40% of the weighting: a median of $22.33 an hour, 25% below the US median of $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $18.41 and $56.89 an hour. About 910 work in the metro. That is 8.0 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 7.7 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
Roofers (47-2181), 30% of the weighting: a median of $23.94 an hour, 10% below the US median of $26.65. The middle half of them earn between $23.06 and $30.58 an hour. About 1,350 work in the metro. That is 11.9 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 8.7 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
For construction laborers (47-2061, weighted 30%) the local median is $23.19 an hour, which is in line with the national $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $19.36 and $30.14 an hour. BLS counts 8,280 of them working in the area, 72.8 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 70.5), so the local bench is about average.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (sheet metal workers) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $480 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $55. That is a swing of roughly 2.2% to 19.0% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas has 1,136,960 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 26th by size among the 300 metros on this site.
