What carpenters and the other trades earn in Florida

Statewide wages come from BLS's state-level estimates, which blend big cities with small towns and rural areas. 2 trades drive the labor line for this job, and the weighted ratio against the national wage level is 0.84 for Florida.

For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 80%) the local median is $23.98 an hour, which is 18% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $21.41 and $28.79 an hour. BLS counts 39,300 of them working in the state, 39.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is about average.

General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071), 20% of the weighting: a median of $22.15 an hour, 7% below the US median of $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $18.19 and $27.18 an hour. About 111,530 work in the state. That is 112.3 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 98.4 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.

A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($28.79 an hour) would add about $35 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($21.41) would take off about $20. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.

BLS counts 9,929,860 jobs across Florida (May 2025), which is 6.4% of US employment.

Florida seasons and storm door

Season matters for storm door. For each Florida metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for exterior installation.

Miami has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Florida at 12 months; Punta Gorda has the shortest at 7 (October through April). Rainfall runs from 46 inches a year in Lakeland to 68 inches in Pensacola.

We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.
