SIC 1542 maps to 2022 NAICS 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction. The main confusable SIC code is 1541 for industrial buildings and warehouses. One important boundary difference is that NAICS 236220 includes warehouse construction even though SIC puts warehouses under 1541.

In our portal, SIC 1542 can be combined with state, city, county, zip, employee count, annual revenue, area code, and contact-name fields. The output is a CSV with the business name, phone number, address, SIC code, and the demographic fields you select, ready for a dialer or CRM.
Common buyer profiles include building-material suppliers targeting commercial general contractors by territory and employee band, equipment rental companies targeting active contractor markets by metro and company size, and insurance or payroll providers narrowing commercial contractors by state, revenue, and employee count.
Commercial construction firms are generally more stable than high-churn categories such as restaurants, but phone numbers, ownership, specialties, and operating status still change. Our US business data is refreshed quarterly, and we estimate roughly 90% accuracy on business records. For a large purchase, ask when the file was last refreshed.
These are the available SIC 1542 commercial construction records in the supplied business file, broken out by state and jurisdiction. You can narrow further by city, county, zip, employee count, or revenue inside the portal.
