56174

Analysis

NAICS 56174 is the 2022 NAICS industry for carpet and upholstery cleaning services, part of 5617 (Services to Buildings and Dwellings).

It has only one more detailed code, 561740, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.

County Business Patterns counts 6,673 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 36,157 people at an average annual payroll of $40,900 per employee (9th percentile of national industries). 72% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.

By establishments it ranks 5th of the 5 codes at this level within Services to Buildings and Dwellings, with 2.9% of them.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 10% and employment fell 4%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
