Tile Setter prevailing wage, Clark County group, Nevada (4 counties)
Labor Commissioner sets the same tile setter rates, row for row, in 4 counties: Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln and Nye. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.
$71.44an hour, fringe benefits included
One rate, fringe benefits included (Labor Commissioner prints no split) · Union rate
On Nevada public works in each of these 4 counties, a tile setter must be paid at least $71.44 an hour. Labor Commissioner prints one rate with fringe benefits included, so there is no separate base wage.
Labor Commissioner 2026-2027 rates (Oct 1, 2026), effective October 1, 2026. On a bid contract, the rates in effect when bids are opened apply until the contract ends or for 36 months (NRS 338.030(9)). Checked against labor.nv.gov on October 25, 2026.
One rate, fringe benefits included: $71.44
Labor Commissioner 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 $71.44. Labor Commissioner doesn't publish a base and fringe split, so this page doesn't invent one.
Zone pay on top of this rate: Zone 2 (41-50 Miles) +$4.25; Zone 3 (51-70 Miles) +$5.50; Zone 4 (71 Miles and over) +$11.00

Davis-Bacon tile setter rates in these counties
The counties share Labor Commissioner's rates, but not always the same federal wage determination. When a contract requires both the state rate and the Davis-Bacon rate, paying the higher of the two meets both. The contract documents say which apply.
