Taxes & licensing in Colorado

Sales tax on the repair: Repair labor is sometimes taxed here — it depends on how the job is billed. Appliance-repair LABOR is generally NOT subject to Colorado sales tax, but only if it is separately stated on the invoice. (official tax source)
Who is licensed to do the work: There is no single Colorado occupational license titled "appliance repair," but three legal regimes govern the work depending on what the job touches. (official licensing source)

How we price this for Denver

We take each national base range and multiply it by Denver's local index of 1.09:

local range = national base × 1.09

The index blends the metro's wage relativity (Denver metro wages for appliance technicians (BLS OEWS occupation 49-9031)) with the BEA Regional Price Parity for Denver, held to a sane band. Parts ship at national prices, so only the labor and overhead share moves with the metro. These localized estimates are cross-checked against 4 locally published service fees in the observed stat above — figures we show verbatim, never run through the index. The full method and source vintages are on the methodology page.
