UNSPSC 72152204: Ceramic tile installation service

The installation of ceramic tiles to structures owned by others

UNSPSC 72152204 Ceramic tile installation service is a Commodity code. State and local governments purchasing under this code buy flooring materials and installation services—including ceramic tile, vinyl, epoxy, carpet, and related labor—for schools, colleges, community centers, and public facilities. The recent activity dataset shows the code's nominal scope diverges sharply from what state and local buyers are actually purchasing: the single detailed opportunity under this code (Hillsborough County Public Schools ITB 26190-MST) requests bids on flooring materials and services spanning carpet, vinyl, epoxy, tile, and luxury vinyl tile (LVT) products and installation across seven material categories. The remaining opportunities in the dataset tagged to this code—irrigation system improvements (City of DeBary), building remodels, elevator upgrades, roof repairs, sewer line replacement, and fire alarm upgrades at Washington community colleges and state agencies—show minimal or no connection to ceramic tile installation. The code appears to function as a catch-all bin for facility maintenance and repair work rather than a precise classification for tile-specific services.

Hillsborough County Public Schools, the seventh-largest school system with 235 schools and approximately 225,000 students, is the standout repeat buyer and the only issuing body with substantive recent activity under this code. The Hillsborough ITB (due August 6, 2026, with technical questions due July 23, 2026) solicits flooring bids covering 22,300 square yards of standard-moisture-content carpet tile, 1,000 square yards of high-moisture-content carpet tile, 306,000 square feet of Armstrong vinyl flooring, 250,000 square feet of vinyl tile installation, epoxy decorative quartz resinous flooring, luxury vinyl tile products and installation, and dance flooring components. The contract includes a one-year minimum warranty and encourages participation from certified small business enterprises, minority-owned, women-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. Bids must be submitted electronically through myvendorlink.com, with pricing quoted FOB Destination and net 45 days payment terms. The balance of the recent opportunities dataset shows no meaningful tile installation activity; geographic concentration is overwhelmingly weighted to Washington state education and correctional facilities and Santa Clara County healthcare seismic upgrades—jurisdictions and work types orthogonal to ceramic tile scope. Outside of Hillsborough, pursuit under this code appears low-yield.
