Rates vary by certification, process, and region within the state. These ranges reflect typical shop and field rates for AWS-certified welders.
These are typical market rates — not prevailing wage on public jobs. Add 25–35% for total loaded cost (payroll taxes, workers' comp, insurance, tools). Add 15–25% markup on top of loaded cost as the shop's contribution to overhead and profit.
Licensing & Certification
New York City requires a Licensed Master Welder under NYC Building Code for structural welding on buildings over 3 stories. The NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) requires AWS D1.1 and special inspection for bridge work. New York State requires a licensed specialty contractor for public works. ASME Section IX certification is mandatory for pressure vessel work across the state.
AWS Code Adoption
NYC Buildings enforces AWS D1.1 with mandatory special inspection per NYC BC Chapter 17. NYSDOT uses AWS D1.5 for bridges and D1.1 for structural highway work. The Hudson Valley corridor has seen significant industrial growth (semiconductor fabs, renewable energy) adding AWS D1.1 and ASME B31.3 requirements. New York is a prevailing wage state — Davis-Bacon rates on state contracts typically run $55–$72/hr all-in.
