Frequently Asked Questions
How often should parking lot lines be repainted?
Parking lot striping typically lasts 1-3 years depending on traffic volume, weather exposure, and surface condition. We recommend restriping when lines become faded and difficult to see, especially handicap markings which must remain clearly visible.
Can you stripe over old faded lines?
Yes, if the existing layout is correct, we can repaint directly over faded lines. If you want to change the layout or old lines are in the wrong location, we can black out old markings before applying new ones.
How long before cars can drive on fresh striping?
Our traffic paint dries to touch in 15-30 minutes under normal conditions. We recommend keeping traffic off fresh lines for 30-60 minutes, or longer in cool, humid weather. We can work in sections to minimize disruption.
What are the ADA requirements for handicap parking?
ADA requires accessible spaces to be at least 8' wide with a 5' access aisle (can be shared between two spaces). Van accessible spaces need an 8' access aisle. All accessible spaces must have proper signage and the International Symbol of Accessibility painted in the stall.
Can you stripe in cold or wet weather?
Striping requires dry pavement and temperatures above 50°F for proper paint adhesion and drying. We monitor weather forecasts and will reschedule if conditions aren't suitable. We can sometimes stripe in cooler temperatures with specialized paint.
Do you provide fire lane and curb painting?
Yes, we paint fire lane curbs red with proper "NO PARKING - FIRE LANE" stenciling. We also paint loading zones (yellow/white), passenger zones (white), and other specialty curb colors as required by local fire codes.
