UNSPSC 72152001: Drywall installation and repair service

The hanging, repair and maintenance of mortar to drywall owned by others

UNSPSC 72152001 Drywall installation and repair service is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure drywall replacement, repair, and finishing work as part of broader facility renovation and restoration projects. Recent solicitations show drywall as a component service bundled into multi-trade building renovation contracts rather than as a standalone commodity; the Housing Authority of the City of Alameda's August 2026 IFB for water damage repairs at Independent Plaza (703 and 711 Atlantic Avenue) explicitly includes Type X drywall installation alongside cabinet, flooring, and fixture replacement across fifteen residential units and common areas, with mandatory prevailing wage, $2 million general liability insurance, and a Davis-Bacon compliance requirement. Issuing bodies under this code span Washington State community colleges (Skagit Valley College, Bellevue College, Columbia Basin College, Walla Walla Community College, Tacoma Community College, Renton Technical College, Olympic College, Yakima Valley College, Whatcom Community College, Shoreline Community College, Bellingham Technical College), state agencies (Washington Department of Enterprise Services, Department of Corrections, Department of Social and Health Services, Department of Children, Youth and Families, Department of Labor & Industries), county and municipal governments (Portage County, Wisconsin; Town of Groton, Connecticut; DeKalb County, Georgia), and the Housing Authority of the City of Alameda. Washington State dominates recent activity, with a concentration of bids posted by DES-managed college and state-facility projects.

Recent opportunities span repair and renovation work across occupied facilities and multi-building campus projects. The Alameda Housing Authority's IFB (posted July 11, 2026, due August 5, 2026) represents the most detailed drywall-specific scope, involving water mitigation and turnkey restoration of interior building components including Type X drywall, insulation, flooring, and finishes in a 15-unit residential complex under prevailing wage rules. Portage County, Wisconsin's courthouse renovation (posted July 6, 2026, due July 23, 2026) included a Gypsum Board Assemblies trade package among nine total trades, managed by J.H. Findorff as Construction Manager at Risk. Washington Department of Enterprise Services and DES-procured college projects (Bellevue College, Columbia Basin College, Renton Technical College, Olympic College, Lower Columbia College) issued bids through June and May 2026 for facility improvements that typically encompass drywall finishing as part of broader classroom upgrades, tenant improvements, or building renovations. Most college bids are sealed-bid procurements due through the DES Public Procurement Portal, subject to prevailing wage requirements, voluntary diversity goals (10% MBE, 6% WBE, 5% SBE/PWSBE, 5% Veterans), and mandatory apprenticeship utilization of 15% for projects exceeding $1 million. Geographic spread is heavily weighted toward Washington State and the Pacific Northwest, with secondary activity in Wisconsin and Connecticut. Drywall work is rarely solicited in isolation; it appears instead as a subordinate trade or component within general renovation, water mitigation, building restoration, or classroom/office conversion contracts.
