FAQ

What work fits NAICS 238190?
  • Underpinning and foundation stabilization with engineered jacking or micropile installation tied to geotechnical recommendations.
  • Exterior facade rehabilitation including masonry repointing, anchor installation, and through-wall flashing replacement with substrate remediation.
  • Below grade waterproofing and drainage system replacement including membrane installation, perimeter drains, and tie-ins to site storm systems.
  • Installation or repair of exterior insulation and finish systems (EIFS) or other cladding remediation with manufacturer certifications and mockup approvals.
When is NAICS 238190 a weak fit?
  • New general building construction that encompasses full structural framing, MEP systems, and overall building delivery but lacks the focused exterior or foundation specialty.
  • Standard roofing contracts for whole-roof replacement executed by general roofers where structural underpinning or facade anchoring is not part of the scope.
  • Selective interior renovation work focused on finishes and MEP upgrades that does not include exterior envelope, foundation, or structural remediation.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 238190?
  • Requirement for geotechnical borings, written underpinning methodology, and engineered underpinning drawings as contract deliverables.
  • Evaluation factors that prioritize past performance in waterproofing, masonry restoration, or facade anchoring projects with similar materials and methods.
  • Line items and acceptance criteria specifying membrane type, anchor embedment lengths, mockup approvals, and material test certificates.
