🔧 General Questions

1. What is parking lot line striping?
Parking lot line striping involves applying painted lines and markings to organize and guide traffic flow, parking spaces, and ADA-compliant zones in a parking area.

2. Why is line striping important?
It improves safety, maximizes parking space usage, ensures ADA compliance, and gives your property a professional appearance.

3. How often should I re-stripe my parking lot?
Typically every 1–2 years, depending on traffic volume, weather, and the type of paint used.

Most jobs are completed within a few hours. Larger or more complex lots may take longer.

⚧️ Preparation & Process

9. Do I need to prepare the lot before striping?
Ideally, the lot should be clean and dry. We offer power blowing and surface prep if needed.
