NIGP 14533: Gutter Brushes

NIGP 14533 Gutter Brushes, an Item code, encompasses gutter and downspout system replacement and maintenance work that state and local governments solicit when building envelope systems require removal, installation, or repair. Based on recent opportunities, the code captures full-scope gutter and downspout replacement projects—material supply, installation, demolition of existing systems, permitting coordination, and disposal—rather than brush cleaning or maintenance alone. Issuing bodies under this code include county facilities departments managing county-owned buildings and grounds infrastructure. The work requires general contractor licensing, insurance compliance, and coordination with local building departments and facilities maintenance teams.

Monroe County Board of County Commissioners, Florida posted RFS644 in August 2026 for Ellis Building gutter replacement, soliciting quotes due August 13, 2026 for removal and installation of approximately 400 feet of 7-inch white aluminum seamless K-style gutter and 200 feet of 3x4 downspout system at 88800 Overseas Highway, Plantation Key. The scope included demolition of existing systems, permit procurement from Monroe County Building Department and City of Marathon Building Department, and completion within forty-five calendar days. Bids were due as lump-sum pricing with 120-day validity. The Florida activity represents the only substantive recent opportunity identified under this code; activity appears limited at the state and local level based on the available record.
