NIGP 91083: Sandblasting Buildings (see 968-67 for All Other Types)

NIGP 91083 Sandblasting Buildings, an Item code, encompasses exterior surface preparation, repair, and finishing work on building structures — including log-wall restoration, stone masonry work, and related surface treatment. State and local governments solicit under this code for maintenance and reconstruction projects on public facilities ranging from recreational centers and administrative buildings to wildlife management properties. Issuing bodies include county governments, cities, independent school districts, and state agencies managing facility portfolios. The scope of work typically involves labor-intensive exterior restoration combining surface preparation (paint and stain removal, sanding), structural repair (decayed material replacement, chinking and caulking), and finishing (primer, sealer, and stain application), with contractors expected to provide all labor, materials, equipment, and tools required for completion.

Recent activity spans Georgia and Florida. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission issued ITB 15360 in March 2026 for exterior log-wall preparation, repair, and finishing plus stone chimney work at a state residence in Leon County, with bids due April 7, 2026 and requiring a mandatory site visit and minimum five years' documented experience in log-home restoration. DeKalb County, Georgia posted ITB 2026-076-ITB in June 2026 for reconstruction work at the DeKalb Tennis Center in Decatur, with bids due July 13, 2026, encompassing IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation alongside structural components. Atlanta Public Schools issued IFB 2609192530BCP in February 2026 for district-wide carpet and flooring installation services, with a pre-bid conference on February 25, 2026 and bids due March 18, 2026; this procurement permits local vendor preference for firms registered in Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton, or Gwinnett counties for at least twelve months.
