St. George labor market for storm door
Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 2 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for St. George is 0.80 times the national level.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 80%) the local median is $22.63 an hour, which is 22% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $19.45 and $28.36 an hour. BLS counts 1,110 of them working in the area, 122.7 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is deeper than average.
General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071), 20% of the weighting: a median of $21.25 an hour, 11% below the US median of $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $17.52 and $27.59 an hour. About 950 work in the metro. That is 105.0 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 98.4 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.

At the 25th percentile ($19.45) it shrinks by about $25. The total moves by 7.1% or 3.9%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.
