What Is Parking Lot Striping?

Also called asphalt or line striping, parking lot striping is the process of painting lines to define traffic flow. This includes dividing lines, parking spots, directional arrows, curb markings, crosswalks, handicap spots, and so much more.

Why Is Parking Lot Striping Important?

  • Safety: Directional arrows, clear parking spots, and visible crosswalks all help traffic flow. When motorists and pedestrians know where to drive and walk, accidents are less likely.
  • Traffic Flow: By creating clear indicators of driving directions using asphalt striping paint, you can help direct traffic. This means fewer backups on busier days and a better flow in and out of your parking lot.
  • Maximize Space: Clearly defining parking spots allows you to optimize parking lot space. Asphalt striping helps ensure efficiency and maximize the number of cars that can use your parking lot, maximizing the number of customers that can visit your business.
  • Ensure Compliance: Clearly defined and accessible handicap parking spots are required to meet ADA standards. The local fire code also requires clearly indicated fire lanes. Hiring Tates Creek Paving to apply asphalt striping paint is much less expensive than paying the cost of fines.
Cleaning up your parking lot by adding fresh stripes
  • Curb Appeal: A parking lot with crisp, clean asphalt striping will appeal more to customers than faded or absent lines. An accessible parking process will also keep customers in a better mood while visiting your business. Making a good impression before a customer has even entered your business increases the chance they will have a good experience while there.
  • Brand Recognition: At Tates Creek Paving, we offer all sorts of parking lot striping, including custom markings. These markings can include logos and letters. Adding colorful logos to your parking lot can make it instantly recognizable.

The Asphalt Striping Process

  1. Clean Up: The first step in any parking lot striping process is to clean the asphalt. We ensure that all dirt, rocks, sand, trash, and other objects have been cleared from the space. These items can interfere with the application of paints and cause breaks or warps in the applied lines.
  2. Make Repairs: Before the asphalt striping can be in earnest, we will also make any needed repairs. Cracks and potholes that might interfere with the asphalt striping paint should be fixed before the application begins.
  3. Remove Old Paint: We will remove old or incorrect lines if needed. They can also be painted over as long as their location isn’t changing.
  4. Dry Asphalt: It is vital that the surface is dry before painting begins, so any water used during the cleanup or repairs will need to be dried.
  5. Painting: Once the area is prepped, the asphalt striping can begin.
