UNSPSC 81141807: Plumbing or sewer inspection service

UNSPSC 81141807 Plumbing or sewer inspection service is a Commodity code covering video inspection, cleaning, and condition assessment of sanitary sewer lines, storm drains, and related drainage structures—services state and local governments procure to maintain wastewater and stormwater infrastructure compliance. Recent solicitations show this code active across diverse issuing bodies including state departments of transportation, county environmental and water authorities, city water and wastewater agencies, school districts, and special-purpose districts, with repeat activity from Florida's FDOT District Seven, Caltrans, and municipal wastewater control authorities in Connecticut and California.

State and local jurisdictions soliciting under this code are acquiring video inspection and cleaning of gravity sewer mains and storm drains using closed-circuit television (CCTV) technology, high-pressure jetting and hydro-vacuum systems, manhole inspection and rehabilitation, grease interceptor and drain line cleaning, and associated repair services performed under fixed-price, unit-rate, or hourly rate structures. Recent representative opportunities include Hudson Valley Community College (Troy, New York) seeking sewer cleaning services with three-hour emergency response capability under Bid 4053 with an August 4, 2026 response date; the Florida Department of Transportation District Seven requesting storm drain video inspection services across five counties under ITB 15995 with a June 8, 2026 due date; the Town of Trumbull, Connecticut procuring on-call sewer and drain rehabilitation services under ITB 6576 with a June 24, 2026 deadline; and the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation soliciting sewer line and storm drain cleaning at California State Prison Solano under IFB C5613339-D with a July 31, 2026 due date and a 25 percent small-business participation requirement. Geographic activity concentrates in California, Florida, Connecticut, New York, and Utah, with secondary activity in Colorado, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Georgia. Contractors pursuing this code typically require professional certifications (NASSCO PACP/LACP/MACP for video inspection, valid plumbing or sanitation contractor licenses), specialized equipment (CCTV vans, jetting trucks with 4,000+ psi capacity, vacuum equipment), rapid emergency response protocols (24/7 availability with two-to-three-hour mobilization windows in many solicitations), and compliance with prevailing wage, Davis-Bacon, and HUD Section 3 requirements on federally funded projects.
