Common questions
How much does a concrete finisher charge per hour in New Hampshire?
Most concrete finishers in New Hampshire charge between $57 and $77 an hour, and about $64 is typical. A full 8-hour day runs about $512. These are estimates built from what concrete finishers earn in New Hampshire (a median of $26.06 an hour, BLS May 2025), not quotes.
Why do concrete finishers charge so much more than they earn?
The wage is only part of the cost. On top of $26.06 an hour, the employer pays payroll taxes, workers' comp and insurance (about $36.48 in total), loses paid hours to driving, supply runs and estimates that nobody is billed for (about $45.60 per billed hour), and has to cover the truck, tools, office and a profit. That's how $26.06 becomes about $64.
What's the lowest rate a concrete finisher in New Hampshire can charge without losing money?
About $46 an hour for a concrete finisher paid the New Hampshire median. That covers pay, payroll taxes, insurance and unbilled time, but nothing for the truck, tools, office or profit, so a rate below it loses money on every hour.
