We weight each trade's local median wage by that share and compare it with the national median. In Peoria the blended ratio comes out at 1.27.
Materials are scaled with BEA's regional price parity for goods. Peoria is at 93.6 against 100 for the US, so a materials line of $550 nationally becomes $520 here (midpoint, 1 pan). Permits follow the all-items index of 91.2: $25 to $460.

What local crews earn in Peoria
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 2 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 Peoria the blend is 1.27.
Plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters (47-2152), 50% of the weighting: a median of $40.91 an hour, 33% above the US median of $30.67. The middle half of them earn between $29.63 and $51.67 an hour. About 560 work in the metro. That is 33.7 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 30.0 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
Tile and stone setters (47-2044) carry 50% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Peoria metro, so we used the Illinois statewide median: $32.29 an hour against $26.77 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $23.20 and $44.83 an hour.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $180 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $190. That is a swing of roughly 9.2% to 8.8% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
