Sales tax on labor in Nevada: not taxed on building repairs and new construction; repairs to things and installation depend on the job
In Nevada, labor is not taxed on building repairs and new construction; for repairs to things and installation it depends on the job. Read from Nevada's own revenue pages, checked November 6, 2026, with every answer quoted below.
Repairing a thing in Nevada
It depends. Repair labor is not taxed if it is listed separately from parts on the invoice; parts are taxed. What it turns on: whether labor is separately stated on the invoice.
- “Installation and repair/reconditioning services are not taxable if they are listed separately on the invoice.” — Sales Tax FAQs (Nevada Department of Taxation), no date on the page
- “Repair labor is considered a service and not subject to tax ... If a single charge is listed on the bill/invoice the entire amount is taxable regardless of the price of the parts” — Repairs and Reconditioning (Nevada Department of Taxation), page date: V2025.1
Repairing a home or building in Nevada
Not taxed. Repairing a building counts as a construction contract: the contractor is the consumer and pays sales tax when buying the materials, and the repair labor is not taxed. The state's FAQ says repair services are not taxable when listed separately, so list labor on its own line.

- “Construction contractors are considered the consumers of any material purchased to fulfill a construction contract in Nevada. This means that a contractor is required to pay the sales tax when they purchase the material from an in-state vendor.” — Construction Contractors (Nevada Department of Taxation), page date: Issue Date: June 25, 2014
Installation work in Nevada
It depends. Installation labor is not taxed if listed separately.
- “Installation and repair/reconditioning services are not taxable if they are listed separately on the invoice.” — Sales Tax FAQs (Nevada Department of Taxation), no date on the page
- “If the materials furnished and installed are improvements to real property, the contractor should pay use tax on the materials. If however, the property is not an improvement to real property, it is a retail sale and sales tax should be collected from the customer” — Construction Contractors — furnish and install, page date: Issue Date: June 25, 2014
New construction in Nevada
Not taxed. Contractors are the consumers of materials for construction contracts and pay sales tax when they buy them; the customer's charge is not a retail sale of those materials.

Listing labor separately on the bill in Nevada
Changes the answer. Repair, reconditioning and installation labor is only tax-free if listed separately; a single combined charge is fully taxable.
