Plumber / Pipefitter prevailing wage in Huron County, Michigan
$60.34an hour, fringes included · Sprinkler Fitters
One rate, fringe benefits included (LEO prints no split)
On Michigan public works in Huron County, a plumber or pipefitter working as sprinkler fitters must be paid at least $60.34 an hour. LEO prints one rate with fringe benefits included, so there is no separate base wage.
LEO county rates, November 2025 edition, effective November 3, 2025. The contracting agent gets LEO's rates before advertising and puts them in the specifications; if the contract isn't awarded or started within 90 days of LEO's determination, LEO must redetermine them (MCL 408.1103). Checked against michigan.gov on October 25, 2026.
LEO lists 7 plumber or pipefitter rates for Huron County, from $60.34 to $86.36 an hour. See all of them.
- LEO prints no wage/fringe split. Derived from its overtime rates (wage = 2 × (time and a half − straight time)), the split would be about $36.22 wage + $24.12 fringe. That's our estimate, not LEO's figure.
One rate, fringe benefits included: $60.34
LEO publishes a single hourly figure that already includes fringe benefits. A contractor can pay it all as wages, or pay part as contributions to bona fide benefit plans for the worker, as long as the two add up to at least $60.34. LEO doesn't publish a base and fringe split, so this page doesn't invent one.
LEO's data note: LEO prints package rates only (wage + fringe at straight time, 1.5x, 2x)
Davis-Bacon plumber or pipefitter rate in Huron County
