# What’s the Typical Salary Range for a Construction Superintendent?

Construction superintendent pay shifts based on project size and complexity, sector, years of experience, certifications, and whether the role requires travel or relocation. Heavy civil, data center, rail, tunnel, and wastewater projects each carry their own pay dynamics, and a superintendent with a strong safety and schedule track record will consistently command more than the market midpoint. High-cost metros push base pay higher, and total compensation often includes truck allowances, per diem, and bonuses on top of base salary. Our construction salary data is drawn straight from where the hiring happens, our recruiting desks, across a network of 90,000+ construction professionals, and cross-checked against authoritative sources including BLS, AGC, and ENR.
