UNSPSC 30131705: Head stones

UNSPSC 30131705 Headstones is a Commodity code that captures stone conservation and restoration services for historical cemetery preservation, specifically the stabilization, repair, repointing, and cleaning of grave markers and footstones. State and local governments solicit under this code for discrete cemetery restoration projects requiring experienced stone conservators with demonstrated expertise in historical preservation. The work involves resetting displaced or unstable markers, repointing deteriorated mortar joints, filling and patching masonry cracks, and cleaning headstones and footstones using conservation-grade techniques and materials — such as D2 cleaning solution, natural bristle brushes, and portable water sprayers without high-pressure equipment. Issuing bodies include county governments managing historical burial grounds as part of cultural preservation and facility stewardship. Vendors pursuing these opportunities must carry substantial insurance (Workers' Compensation per state statute, Employer's Liability at $100,000 single limit, Commercial General Liability at $500,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate, and Professional Liability at $500,000), maintain professional credentials and business licensing, and accept firm pricing through the end of the fiscal year.

Collier County, Florida posted a representative recent opportunity in early July 2026 — a Quick Quote (QQ2026135) for cemetery restoration at the Historic Christ Episcopal Church Cemetery in Immokalee, requesting stone conservation services with a response due July 10, 2026, and award on a one-time purchase basis to the lowest responsive quote. The code shows limited recent state and local procurement activity in the opportunities block; the second record listed (Sourcewell's law enforcement equipment RFP) is unrelated to cemetery preservation or headstone work. Geographic activity in the recent record is concentrated in Florida.
