$43.00 wage + $34.75 benefits · Building

On Connecticut public works in each of these 170 towns, a tile setter must be paid at least $77.75 an hour: a $43.00 base wage plus $34.75 in benefits. CTDOL prints no total, so $77.75 is our sum of the two.

CTDOL schedules as of July 1, 2026; this rate, effective July 1, 2026. Rates are not fixed for the life of a contract: contractors must adjust wages and benefits every July 1 to CTDOL's new rates (CGS § 31-55a, as amended by PA 25-168). Checked against portal.ct.gov on October 25, 2026.

CTDOL lists 2 tile setter rates for each of these towns, from $77.75 to $77.75 an hour. See all of them.

CTDOL's online rates are informational. The contracting agency gets a project schedule from CTDOL before advertising, and that schedule, in the bid documents, is the one that applies.
