FAQ

What work fits NAICS 238390?
  • Interior painting and wall covering installation for office interiors with specified surface prep, VOC-compliant coatings, and punchlist touch-up warranties.
  • Flooring installation and restoration including resilient tile and sheet flooring with subfloor preparation, moisture mitigation, and finish tolerance documentation.
  • Exterior facade coating and sealant application with surface remediation, primer and topcoat systems, and scheduled recoat cycles tracked in project logs.

When is NAICS 238390 a weak fit?

  • Material supply only: procurement covers purchase and delivery of finish materials without field installation, surface prep, or finishing labor obligations.
  • Specialty glazing or storefront installation: primary work involves structural framing, glazing systems, and weatherproofing rather than interior or non-structural finish trades.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 238390?
  • Work statement specifies surface preparation standards, manufacturer product codes for paint and coatings, VOC limits, cure times, and inspection acceptance criteria such as adhesion and uniformity tests.
  • Labor categories list journeyman painters, tile installers, and finish carpenters with required certifications and hourly staffing levels tied to task orders.
  • Payment milestones tie to measured area completed, inspection sign-offs, and acceptance tests with required punchlist completion and warranty deliverables.
