How much do carpenters earn on prevailing wage jobs in Wyoming?
Every row below is one wage determination line: a carpenter 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.

What does the carpenter classification cover?
Carpenters frame, form and finish. On heavy and highway determinations the carpenter classification is very often subdivided — form work, scaffold, drywall hanging and piledriving can each carry their own rate — so the plain "Carpenter" rate may not be the one that applies to the specific task.
Work typically covered
- Rough framing
- Concrete formwork
- Scaffolding
- Doors, frames and hardware
- Finish carpentry and millwork
Also listed as
- Carpenter (Form Work Only)
- Carpenter/Drywall Hanger
- Rough Carpenter
In this Wyoming result set the work appears under 2 distinct classification names.

Carpenter prevailing wage questions
What is the prevailing wage for a carpenter in Wyoming?
Across the 50 federal-funded determination records WageFinder lists for carpenters in Wyoming, total prevailing wage runs from $29.79 to $55.11 per hour, median $29.79. 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 carpenter rate include benefits?
The total prevailing wage shown is the base hourly rate plus the fringe benefit rate. Of the 50 Wyoming records on this page, 8 list a fringe amount separately, with a median of $12.39 per hour — roughly 42% of the median total. The rest list no separate fringe, meaning the base rate is the whole obligation. Fringe can be paid as bona fide benefit plan contributions, as cash added to the paycheck, or as a mix of both.
Which Wyoming counties have carpenter rates?
This page lists carpenter records for 23 counties in Wyoming: Albany, Big-Horn, Campbell, Carbon, Converse, Crook, Fremont, Goshen, Hot-Springs, Johnson, Laramie, Lincoln, and others. Determinations that apply statewide appear under a statewide entry rather than a named county.
How current are these Wyoming carpenter rates?
