Parking Lot Striping in Butte Falls, Oregon: 2026 Service Guide

Parking Lot Striping in Butte Falls, Oregon

Butte Falls is a small mountain community, but the lots it has still need clear striping: the school, the church, the city and community buildings, and the handful of small commercial lots that serve the town and the surrounding forest properties. Faded lines and missing ADA markings are both a liability and an accessibility failure, and in a town this size, the same people use the same lots all year. Up here, a mountain winter also wears markings faster, so striping is not a one-and-done job.

Cojo Excavation & Asphalt stripes lots across Butte Falls and the wider Jackson County area from its Willamette Valley base. Whether you run a school lot, a church, or a small commercial pad, the standards are the same and the requirements are real.

What Parking Lot Striping Costs in Butte Falls

Striping is priced per space for restriping or per linear foot for lines, curbs, and fire lanes. New layouts cost more because they include measurement and planning. The figures below are industry baseline ranges. Actual costs in today's market frequently run higher, especially for lots needing surface prep or full ADA reconfiguration.

Industry baseline ranges shown below. Actual costs vary and are often higher based on lot condition, layout complexity, paint type, and ADA scope.

Service	Industry Baseline Range
Standard restripe (per space)	$3.00–$6.00
New layout striping (per space)	$5.00–$9.00
ADA-compliant space (complete)	$200–$350 each
ADA access aisle marking	$75–$150 each
Fire lane curb painting (per LF)	$2.50–$4.75
Directional arrows / stencils	$25–$75 each

A small school, church, or commercial lot of 20 to 50 spaces falls inside these baselines for a clean restripe, but adding ADA upgrades, fire-lane paint, or a full new layout moves the total up. Our parking lot striping cost in Oregon guide breaks the numbers down further.

ADA Stalls and Access Aisles

Every public lot has to meet ADA requirements, and undersized or missing accessible parking is the most common compliance gap we find on small mountain-town lots. The essentials:

• Accessible stalls must be at least 8 feet wide.
• Each needs an adjacent access aisle, 5 feet for standard and 8 feet for van-accessible.
• Stalls require the International Symbol of Accessibility on the surface plus post signage.
• The number of accessible spaces scales with total lot count, with at least one van-accessible space required.

Getting the access-aisle count and dimensions right on a small Butte Falls lot is usually what determines whether it passes an accessibility review. We lay these out to current standards on any new layout.

Fire Lanes and Curb Paint

Lots serving schools, churches, and assembly uses almost always carry fire-lane requirements from the local fire authority: painted curbs, no-parking markings, and legible fire-lane text. In a forested mountain community, clear fire-lane access is especially important. Faded fire-lane paint is both a code problem and a genuine safety risk. Refreshing curb paint and fire-lane markings is routine striping work that small lots tend to neglect.

Paint, Mountain Weather, and Timing

Striping depends on dry pavement and temperatures above roughly 50°F for the paint to bond and cure, and the mountain season is shorter than the valley's. That puts the realistic Butte Falls striping season in the warm summer months. The shoulder seasons that work down in Medford can be too cool up here.

Water-based latex traffic paint is the standard for most lots and typically holds up 12 to 24 months in this climate, though hard winters and snow removal can wear lines faster up here. Higher-traffic lots or those wanting longer life can step up to more durable materials at added cost. For the fundamentals of how lines are laid and what makes them last, see our line striping basics guide.

Stripe After Sealcoat or Repaving

If you are planning to sealcoat or repave, do that first and stripe after. Fresh lines on old, oxidized asphalt will disappear under the next maintenance cycle. A dark, freshly sealed or paved surface also gives the paint better contrast and adhesion, so the lines hold up better through a mountain winter. If your lot needs surface work first, our asphalt paving in Butte Falls guide covers the paving side.

Why a Regional Striping Contractor

Mountain-town lots get overlooked because they are small jobs far from the metro. The contractor who serves Butte Falls should still bring the right paint, proper ADA layout knowledge, and an understanding of fire-lane requirements for a forested community. We stripe across Jackson County, including the larger market down in Medford, and we treat a small school lot with the same care as a commercial center.
