Thank you comment icon "Construction field" is not a well-defined term. Does that include architects? Engineers? The CEO of a multi-national construction company? The latter could make millions per year. Fred Rosenberger

Rosia’s Answer

If you Google online you will find that Illinois has highest mean salary ($60,500) for Construction Workers. Illinois where you live. The Construction manager is the highest paid. The average worker earns $38,000. The type of specialty you decide will make a factor to your pay. Roofers can earn $45,000 and higher. Asphalt, pavers and masons can earn $18 and higher. You can factor in your skills and training and that will increase your pay. Look online for apprentice opportunities in your area.

Mike’s Answer

This is a great question. The possibilities here are endless. You can get an entry level job paying minimum wage or own a construction company, which can be very lucrative! There are a ton of examples of folks that have started at entry-level and learned the business - whether it's residential construction, business construction or road construction - then started their own company and done very well. Don't think about where you start in a job, try to think about your long term happiness in any job/industry.

George’s Answer

There is a HUGE RANGE of salaries available in construction trades.

Start could be at minimum wage for unskilled labor.

Add education, training, skills, experience, your own business, specialty & high demand trades, state license, bonded, insured, business experience & relationships, marketing, reputation, employ other highly skilled trades people in teams, ...a person should be well into the six-figure range.

The more you bring to the table, and the harder you work, all the more you can make.
