UNSPSC 72152500: Floor laying services

The installation, repair and maintenance of flooring in structures owned by others

UNSPSC 72152500 Floor laying services, a Class code, encompasses the removal, preparation, and installation of flooring materials—including carpet, vinyl, tile, epoxy, and terrazzo—across educational, healthcare, civic, and municipal facilities. State and local governments procure under this code to upgrade or maintain interior surfaces in schools, community centers, administrative buildings, correctional facilities, hospitals, and airports. The work typically includes substrate preparation, material delivery, labor, disposal, and warranties, often bundled with protective measures for occupied or operational spaces. Issuing bodies span school districts (Pinellas County Schools, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind), city governments (Ocala, Meriden, Old Lyme, DeBary), counties (Santa Clara County, Beaufort County, Henry County, Marion County), special-purpose districts (New Smyrna Beach Utilities, Melbourne Airport Authority, Sanitation District No. 2–3), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, California Department of Veterans Affairs, Washington Department of Corrections, Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice), and regional entities (Texas A&M University). Repeat activity appears in California (Santa Clara County medical center projects, Caltrans, Department of Veterans Affairs), Texas (HHSC, Texas A&M), and Florida (school boards, city procurement offices, community colleges).

Representative recent solicitations span multiple formats and material types. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0018039 for epoxy floor installation at Rusk State Hospital (bids due October 28, 2026, mandatory site visits October 12–13, HUB participation required, approximately 3,021 square feet). City of Ocala issued ITB FAC/261122 for epoxy matrix terrazzo flooring at City Hall (bids due September 23, 2026, mandatory pre-bid meeting September 14, approximately 1,500 square feet, estimated $75,000 with 10% contingency). Hillsborough County Public Schools released ITB 26190-MST for flooring materials and services including carpet, vinyl, epoxy, tile, and labor (bids due August 6, 2026, encourages SBE/MBE/WBE/DVBE participation, seven material categories across 235 schools). Savannah-Chatham County Public School System posted RFQ C27-07 for prequalification of on-call construction contractors including flooring trades (qualifications due November 19, 2026, annual contract under $250,000 per project). California Department of Veterans Affairs solicited flooring replacement (DVBE participation 3% minimum, pre-bid site inspection October 21, bids due November 16). Geographic activity concentrates in California, Florida, Texas, Georgia, and Washington; secondary activity appears in Connecticut, Michigan, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Set-asides and preference programs are common: HUB goals in Texas, DVBE requirements in California, SBE/MBE/WBE eligibility in Florida school districts, and CBE set-asides in the District of Columbia. Most opportunities carry 60–120 calendar day completion windows, require insurance (typically $1–2 million general liability), bonding at 5–100 percent of contract value depending on jurisdiction and amount, and prevailing wage compliance where applicable. The code remains active across state and local procurement with steady baseline demand for classroom, facility, and infrastructure floor upgrades.
