Why Does Parking Lot Striping Matter?

Well-planned parking lot lines help your customers, tenants, and employees find their way without confusion or frustration. Benefits include:

  • Improved traffic flow – Clear direction for vehicles and pedestrians reduces congestion and the risk of accidents.
  • Compliance – Meets ADA and fire lane regulations for accessibility and safety.
  • Maximized space – Efficient layouts ensure the best use of your parking area.
  • Enhanced curb appeal – A crisp, well-marked lot reflects positively on your business.

For many visitors, your parking lot is the first impression they have of your property. Fresh, visible striping sets the tone before they even walk through the door.

New Layouts and Re-Striping Services

Whether you need lot striping for a brand-new parking area or a restripe to refresh faded lines, we tailor our services to your needs:

  • Re-striping – Restores faded lines to full visibility, often paired with sealcoating for a clean, professional look.
  • New layouts – Designed to optimize traffic flow, improve accessibility, and make the most of your available space.
  • Custom markings – Arrows, loading zones, crosswalks, and other specialized markings to guide users and improve safety.

We work closely with you to determine whether your current layout is working or if a redesign will better serve your property and customers.

Compliance You Can Count On

For commercial properties, non-compliance with ADA or fire lane requirements can mean fines and accessibility complaints. Our team stays up-to-date on all local and federal standards so your parking lot is functional, safe, and regulation-ready from day one.

What is the Parking Lot Striping Process?

1. Surface Preparation

Proper prep ensures lasting results. We clean and dry the asphalt surface, removing dirt, debris, and moisture to help paint adhere correctly. If cracks or potholes are present, we recommend repairs before painting.

2. Sealcoating for Longevity

If you’re resurfacing or want the most striking contrast between asphalt and paint, we may suggest sealcoating. This protective layer gives the lot a rich black finish that makes new striping stand out and helps protect the surface from water and UV damage.

3. Layout and Compliance

We measure and mark the lot with precision, using chalk and spray guides before painting. All layouts follow local zoning rules, ADA guidelines for handicap spaces, and fire lane clearance requirements. In Oregon, standard stalls are 18 feet deep by 9 feet wide, with angle options based on lot dimensions and traffic flow.

4. High-Visibility Painting

Using professional-grade striping machines and durable traffic paint, we create crisp, straight lines that withstand weather, vehicle wear, and time. Handicap symbols, arrows, and other stencils are applied with accuracy for a professional finish.

FAQs: Parking Lot Striping for Commercial Properties

How often should a parking lot be re-striped?

Most commercial lots benefit from re-striping every 1–2 years, or sooner if heavy traffic or weather fades the lines.

Can you work around my business hours?

Yes. We offer flexible scheduling to minimize disruption, including evenings and weekends.

Do you handle ADA compliance for handicap parking spaces?

Absolutely. We follow all ADA guidelines for size, placement, and signage of accessible spaces.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Under normal conditions, paint is dry to the touch within 30 minutes, but we recommend keeping vehicles off the lot for at least 1–2 hours.

Yes. We provide a full range of custom markings to guide traffic and improve safety.
