$31.20 base wage + $9.36 fringe benefits · General building

On New Mexico public works in each of these 33 counties, a roofer working as roofer – roofer journeyman must be paid at least $40.56 an hour: a $31.20 base wage plus $9.36 in fringe. DWS prints no total, so $40.56 is our sum of the two.

11.1.2.20 NMAC rates for decisions issued from July 1, 2026; this rate, effective July 1, 2026. Each project is governed by one wage rate decision "which shall remain effective for the duration of the project" (11.1.2.14 NMAC). Checked against dws.state.nm.us on October 25, 2026.

DWS lists 8 roofer rates for each of these counties, from $28.08 to $40.56 an hour. See all of them.

These rates come from the rule. The DWS wage rate decision issued for the project is what binds.

Base wage and fringe benefits: $31.20 + $9.36

The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DWS prints the fringe 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)$31.20
Fringe benefits (one figure, not itemized)$9.36
