What Is Parking Lot Striping?
Parking lot striping is the layout and painting of parking stalls, fire lanes, directional arrows, and ADA-compliant accessible spaces on commercial pavement — done with durable traffic paint or thermoplastic.
Our Process
Consultation
We discuss your project scope, timeline, and any operational constraints (business hours, tenant access, occupied spaces).
Site Visit
We walk the property to assess surface conditions, measure square footage, and identify prep work needed.
Proposal
You receive a detailed, itemized estimate covering materials, labor, timeline, and any surface repairs required.
Preparation
Surfaces are cleaned, patched, sanded, and masked. Proper prep is what makes a coating last.
Application
Coatings are applied by our crew using methods suited to the surface and coating type — brush, roll, or spray.
Quality Inspection
We walk the finished work with you, checking coverage, lines, and finish quality before sign-off.
Completion
Final cleanup, touch-ups, and closeout — your property is left as clean as we found it.

Maintenance Tips
- Sweep and clean lots regularly to keep painted lines visible and reduce wear from debris.
- Repaint faded ADA-accessible stalls and signage promptly — this is both a safety and compliance issue.
- Seal-coat asphalt periodically; fresh striping lasts longer on well-maintained pavement.
Safety & Environmental Commitment
Our crews follow OSHA safety guidelines on every job, including proper use of fall protection on lift equipment, ventilation practices for enclosed spaces, and safe handling and disposal of materials and coatings.
We use low-VOC and eco-conscious coatings where available and follow proper containment and disposal practices to protect surrounding landscaping, waterways, and indoor air quality.
ADA Compliance
ADA-compliant parking requires a minimum ratio of accessible stalls based on total lot size, van-accessible spaces with wider access aisles, correctly mounted signage, and compliant slope. We lay out and paint striping to meet current accessibility standards, but always recommend confirming exact requirements with your local building department, since requirements can vary by jurisdiction.
