NIGP 91025: Flooring Maintenance and Repair to Include Refinishing and Sealing

NIGP Item 91025 Flooring Maintenance and Repair to Include Refinishing and Sealing covers removal, installation, refinishing, and repair of flooring across institutional, municipal, educational, and recreational facilities—work state and local governments solicit regularly under IFB, RFP, and RFQ notices. Recent opportunities show a mix of small-footprint projects (under 1,000 square feet) and larger multi-location contracts, with epoxy, resilient, hardwood, and specialty athletic flooring dominating the scope. Issuing bodies include state departments (Illinois DHS, Texas HHS), counties (DeKalb, Gwinnett, Fayette, Dorchester), cities (Fort Worth, Dallas, Orlando, Meriden, Villa Rica, Fairburn, Madison, New Haven, Waco), school districts (Cobb County, Pinellas County, Hillsborough County, Richmond County, Boyne Falls, various Texas ISDs), transit and recreation authorities (Events DC, City of Venice), and special-purpose districts (Rio Rancho Community College, Georgia World Congress Center, Harris County Department of Education). Prevailing wage requirements are common in public-works-classified projects; set-asides for SBE, MBE/WBE, and DBE appear frequently in state and municipal procurements, with Illinois DHS small-business-set-aside opportunities especially active in recent months.

Geographic activity concentrates in Illinois, Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Connecticut, with sporadic opportunities in the Mountain West and Pacific regions. Representative recent solicitations include Illinois Department of Human Services' October 2026 IFB for carpet removal and epoxy flooring installation at Alton Forensic Center (approximately 16,230 square feet, response due November 5, 2026); Illinois DHS October 2026 small-business-set-aside IFB for asbestos abatement and epoxy refinishing at Chester Mental Health Center Unit F (approximately 10,632 square feet, response due October 30, 2026); Hillsborough County Public Schools August 2026 ITB for flooring materials and installation across carpet, vinyl, epoxy, tile, and LVT categories serving 235 schools (bids due August 6, 2026); City of Orlando October 2026 RFQ for on-call parking structure repairs and renovations including concrete spall repair and surface resurfacing (response due October 27, 2026); Gwinnett County July 2026 ITB for removal and replacement of epoxy floors at six park restrooms totaling approximately 4,800 square feet (bids due August 21, 2026); and City of Fort Worth June 2026 RFP for non-exclusive flooring materials and services across multiple flooring types with 30% small-business participation goal (proposals due July 23, 2026). Most procurements require proof of prior similar-project experience, comprehensive insurance (typically $1–2 million general liability), and compliance with prevailing wage or labor-standard requirements where applicable.
