How much do boilermakers earn on prevailing wage jobs in Nevada?
Every row below is one wage determination line: a boilermaker classification, in one county, for one construction type, under one funding source. The rate that applies to your project is the row whose county, construction type and funding source all match it — a Highway rate does not apply to a Building project in the same county, and a state determination does not substitute for a federal one.

Boilermaker prevailing wage questions
What is the prevailing wage for a boilermaker in Nevada?
Across the 50 federal-funded determination records WageFinder lists for boilermakers in Nevada, total prevailing wage runs from $76.62 to $76.62 per hour, median $76.62. There is no single statewide figure: each county's determination sets its own rate, and the same county can carry different rates for Building, Highway, Heavy and Residential work.
Does the boilermaker rate include benefits?
The total prevailing wage shown is the base hourly rate plus the fringe benefit rate. None of these records list a separate fringe amount, which is common on non-union federal determinations — in that case the total is the base rate alone. Fringe can be paid as bona fide benefit plan contributions, as cash added to the paycheck, or as a mix of both.
Which Nevada counties have boilermaker rates?
This page lists boilermaker records for 17 counties in Nevada: Carson-City, Churchill, Clark, Douglas, Elko, Esmeralda, Eureka, Humboldt, Lander, Lincoln, Lyon, Mineral, and others. Determinations that apply statewide appear under a statewide entry rather than a named county.
How current are these Nevada boilermaker rates?
