Parking Lot Striping

Parking lot striping goes beyond merely painting lines; it enhances the safety, organization, and functionality of your parking area. Proper striping in a parking lot provides clear guidance on vehicle placement, traffic direction, and pedestrian pathways, simplifying navigation and enhancing safety for both drivers and pedestrians.

Committed to excellent customer service and superior results, we ensure your parking lot not only meets but surpasses your expectations. Opting for our services means investing in the clarity, safety, and visual appeal of your commercial parking area.

Parking Lot Design & Layout

The design and layout of parking lots impact the best options for traffic flow, entrances and exits, parking stalls, loading zones, and other key features. Asphalt contractors need to have experience with commercial striping in order to understand all of the factors necessary to create safe, fully compliant markings for commercial lots.

ADA Compliance

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal law that, in part, requires a specific number of handicap parking stalls, based on the number of standard parking stalls available in a commercial parking lot. ADA compliance is crucial to avoiding fines and other penalties. It can also impact the reputation of a business and the visitors who can or are willing to patronize it.

How Long Does the Paint Take to Dry?

Materials and weather affect drying times for striping paint. We can give you a clear answer, based on your project.

How Often Should I Re-Stripe My Parking Lot?

Like parking lot sealcoating, re-striping is part of parking lot maintenance. As such, it’s usually recommended that commercial parking lots are re-striped every 12 to 18 months. Of course, some lots may need re-striping more or less often, based on traffic volumes and exposure to the elements.

At Shamblin Paving, we suggest re-striping whenever current markings are significantly faded or when changes are made to the layout of lots.

Can You Stripe at Night?

Yes. When lots have sufficient lighting, we can stripe at night to work around standard business hours and avoid shutting down parking lots or interrupting a company’s day-to-day business.

Can You Stipe in the Rain?

No. We do not stripe in the rain because it can affect the paint and lead to poor-quality results.
