Elevator Constructor prevailing wage, Garfield County group, Colorado (47 counties)

DOL sets the same elevator constructor rates, row for row, in 47 counties: Alamosa, Archuleta, Baca, Bent, Chaffee, Cheyenne, Conejos, Costilla, Crowley, Custer, Delta, Dolores, Eagle, Fremont, Garfield, Grand, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Huerfano, Jackson, Kiowa, Kit Carson, La Plata, Lake, Las Animas, Lincoln, Logan, Mineral, Moffat, Montezuma, Montrose, Morgan, Otero, Ouray, Phillips, Pitkin, Prowers, Rio Blanco, Rio Grande, Routt, Saguache, San Juan, San Miguel, Sedgwick, Summit, Washington and Yuma. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.

$95.01an hour, base wage + fringe benefits (our sum)

$56.57 base wage + $38.44 fringe benefits · ELEV0025-002

On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 47 counties, an elevator constructor must be paid at least $95.01 an hour: a $56.57 base wage plus $38.44 in fringe benefits, under wage determination CO20260001 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $95.01 is our sum of the two. The WD's footnote adds a benefit this total leaves out, so treat it as a floor.

Wage determination CO20260001, modification 1, published May 18, 2026, for building construction; rate identifier ELEV0025-002 (January 1, 2025). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.

Colorado's state rule uses these same Davis-Bacon determinations for state-agency projects of $500,000 or more that have no federal money (CDOT contracts excluded), with no separate survey (SB19-196, C.R.S. 24-92-205). The City of Denver publishes its own schedules for its own projects, on the City of Denver page.

The footnote for this classification adds a percentage-based benefit that the total here leaves out; read it on the WD.

Base wage and fringe benefits: $56.57 + $38.44

The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DOL prints the fringe benefits as one hourly figure, not itemized; it can go to health, pension, vacation and training plans, or be paid as cash where the state allows.

Base wage (taxable)	$56.57
Fringe benefits (one figure, not itemized)	$38.44
Base + fringe benefits (our sum; DOL prints no total)	$95.01

When does this rate change?

A contract keeps the wage determination in its bid documents. Modifications published before bid opening apply to it, though one published less than 10 days before can be left out if the agency finds there isn't time to tell bidders (29 CFR 1.6(c)).
DOL changes a WD by publishing a numbered modification on SAM.gov. This page reads the modification named in the Source line; the Colorado change log lists what each one changed.
