Demolition & Site Prep contracts — common questions

How do I get government demolition contracts?expand_more

Register on SAM.gov under NAICS 238910 (Site Preparation Contractors), and be ready to document environmental controls — asbestos and lead handling, dust and stormwater plans — because federal demolition solicitations evaluate them explicitly.

What size standard applies?expand_more

238910 uses a receipts-based standard most regional demolition and earthwork contractors fall under. Self-certify in SAM.gov to access the small-business set-asides where this work concentrates.

Does demolition work require bonding?expand_more

Usually, once it crosses the construction bonding threshold — and hauling/disposal arrangements get scrutinized in evaluation. Line up surety credit and disposal sites before bidding rather than after.
