Government contracts for painting in New Hampshire

Painting contracts in New Hampshire typically cover interior repaints of office buildings, exterior coatings on military housing, lead-paint abatement at older federal facilities, and parking-lot striping. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 238320 (Painting and Wall Covering Contractors), and the bulk of the work flows to DoD housing offices, the GSA Public Buildings Service, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Most painting awards are small-business set-asides — federal buyers actively want regional shops, not nationwide painting chains.

As of October 20, 2026, New Hampshire has 2 open painting contracts in our database, with 1 added in the last 30 days. Volume in smaller markets is lumpy: a single base or facility can drive a quarter of annual postings. The most active buyer is DAS Purchasing (Statewide Bids & Contracts) (2 open posts), but contracts also come from federal civilian agencies and state-level departments operating in New Hampshire.

Beyond federal opportunities, much of the painting work in New Hampshire is posted through the New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services bid portal, with recurring buyers including the New Hampshire Department of Transportation and the University System of New Hampshire. New Hampshire posts most state contracts through the Bureau of Purchase and Property — agency-direct postings are rare. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a painting contractor doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
