Glass and Glazing Contractors

NAICS Code 238150 (Glass and Glazing Contractors) encompasses professional services and installations related to glass and window systems for commercial, institutional, and government facilities. These contractors provide comprehensive services including window replacement, repair, tinting, sealing, and specialized installations such as ballistic and security glass. Services typically involve removing existing windows, preparing structural openings, installing new glass units, and performing associated waterproofing, caulking, and finishing work.

Recent federal contract awards under this NAICS code demonstrate a diverse range of project scopes and funding agencies, predominantly within the Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Coast Guard, and Department of Defense. Contract values generally range from $25,000 to $500,000, with performance periods spanning 30-180 days. Many solicitations are set aside for small businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), or local small business concerns. Common locations of performance include military installations, federal administrative buildings, healthcare facilities, and national wildlife refuges across the United States.

Recent federal contract opportunities highlight specialized glass and window-related requirements across multiple agencies. These include window tinting for temperature regulation, ballistic glass upgrades for security facilities, bird strike prevention film installations, window repairs and replacements for aging infrastructure, and comprehensive glass system renovations. Notable opportunities involve the FBI's Terrorist Screening Center, U.S. Coast Guard facilities, Department of Veterans Affairs medical centers, and various administrative buildings. Performance locations span multiple states, with projects typically requiring contractors to provide complete installation services, including materials, labor, and adherence to specific technical specifications.
