Wages behind the Oklahoma number
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 0.80 for Oklahoma.
For tile and stone setters (47-2044, weighted 85%) the local median is $21.32 an hour, which is 20% below the national $26.77. The middle half of them earn between $17.40 and $25.57 an hour. BLS counts 280 of them working in the state, 1.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 2.3), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 15% of the weighting: a median of $18.92 an hour, 17% below the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $17.54 and $22.82 an hour. About 13,710 work in the state. That is 80.3 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for tile and stone setters ($25.57 an hour) would add about $340 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($17.40) would take off about $310. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 1,707,680 jobs across Oklahoma (May 2025), which is 1.1% of US employment.
