UNSPSC 72153503: Building exterior steam cleaning service

The steam cleaning of building exteriors owned by others

UNSPSC 72153503 Building exterior steam cleaning service is a Commodity code encompassing pressure washing, soft-wash treatment, and related exterior surface cleaning at public buildings, monuments, memorials, treatment facilities, and municipal infrastructure across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments procure these services to maintain facility aesthetics, remove biological growth and contaminants, and protect building envelopes and specialized surfaces—work that ranges from routine quarterly cleanings on municipal buildings to specialized applications on sensitive roofing materials, painted surfaces, and carved stone elements. Issuing bodies span city departments and facilities management divisions, county governments managing multipurpose facilities networks, state agencies maintaining capitol and office buildings, school districts managing campuses, transit authorities operating terminals and vehicle infrastructure, special-purpose districts, and universities. The code sees consistent activity across multiple jurisdictions and facility types, with recent opportunities reflecting both single-facility and county-wide master agreements.
