UNSPSC 73151701: Water proofing material treatment services

UNSPSC 73151701 Water proofing material treatment services, a Commodity code, encompasses foundation and structural waterproofing, roof membrane systems, concrete surface preparation, and sealant work that state and local governments procure to address water intrusion and protect building envelopes across facilities ranging from municipal structures to parks and utilities infrastructure. State and local buyers soliciting under this code include city departments, county governments, water utilities, community colleges, public universities, and special-purpose authorities such as higher education centers and parking authorities. Recent solicitations show waterproofing as both a discrete scope item and a component within larger facility-repair projects, with work typically bundled with concrete repair, roof systems, or structural remediation rather than procured in isolation.

The code sees active procurement across the Southeast and Southwest, with notable recent activity in Florida (Kissimmee, DeBary, Tallahassee, Hillsborough County), Georgia (Clay County jail, Walker County courthouse, Macon Water Authority), Colorado (Auraria Higher Education Center in Denver), and Connecticut (Meriden, Groton). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Kissimmee RFQ No. 4 for below-grade foundation waterproofing at Haven on Vine Apartments with Davis-Bacon and Build America, Buy America compliance requirements (due July 8, 2026, subsequently cancelled); Clay County, Florida IFB #26/27-002 for jail recreation yard waterproofing with a mandatory pre-bid meeting October 15, 2026 and bids due November 12, 2026; Hillsborough County Public Schools RFP 26284-MST for building envelope and water intrusion identification services due August 17, 2026 with 10% small business enterprise evaluation weighting; and the Auraria Higher Education Center IFB AHEC-27705-B for 7th Street Garage waterproofing, concrete repair, and traffic coating with bids due October 9, 2026 and mandatory pre-bid conference September 22, 2026. Federal compliance riders—prevailing wage, Davis-Bacon, Build America/Buy America, OSHA, and local apprenticeship requirements—appear consistently across water-utility and EPA-funded projects, establishing hard gates for bidder eligibility. Performance and payment bonding, insurance thresholds (commonly $1 million general liability minimum), and manufacturer certification or five-to-ten-year experience requirements are standard qualifications across recent solicitations.
