Mason in Wyoming: licence, certification and what employers require (2026)

Wyoming does not license masons: no state licence for masons or concrete finishers as employees. This page says what a mason licensed or working in another state has to do to work in Wyoming, in the order to do it, and what goes wrong when the order is reversed.

How the transfer works

No state licenses masons, bricklayers or concrete finishers as employees, so there is nothing to transfer to Wyoming. A masonry contractor licence applies in some states if you work for yourself. Certifications that travel: ACI concrete flatwork finisher, and OSHA cards.

What to have ready before you move

• ACI or NCMA certificates if you hold them
• OSHA 10 card

Start the paperwork before you give notice. There is no Wyoming licence to wait for, so the only clock is the employer's.

What people get wrong

• Underestimating the season in northern states; masonry slows in winter

Who hires masons in Wyoming

Masons in Wyoming are hired by masonry contractors, concrete contractors, general contractors and union locals. The metros with the most of that work are Cheyenne, Casper, Laramie and Gillette. Employers who could not hire locally and have filed with the Department of Labor are on the Wyoming openings page.

For the money side: the median mason in Wyoming earned $55,690 a year ($27 an hour) in May 2024 across 520 jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and Wyoming has no state income tax on wages. What that leaves you after tax is its own page.
