Parking Lot Re-Striping

No matter what type of organization you manage, your parking lot plays a significant role in how others perceive your trustworthiness, your dedication to the comfort of your visitors, and your attitude about public safety. People often associate a decrepit parking lot with a company that does not honor its commitments, provides inferior services or products, or pays little attention to the needs of its customers. Columbus Line Striping can help you with your asphalt services, including parking lot re-striping.

How Often Should I Re-Stripe My Parking Lot?

On average, most parking lots in Ohio need re-striping services every 12 to 18 months. This could be a total parking lot re-striping of the parking lot, including the pavement markings, or it could be a touch-up job. Some lots can go longer between striping, but there are other factors that are more important than the calendar when determining the need for parking lot re-striping.

How Do I Tell Whether My Parking Lot Needs Re-Striping?

A visual appraisal of your parking lot can often tell you whether it is time to parking lot re-stripe. The list below shows the signs that could indicate that it is time to contact Columbus Line Striping.

• Your stripes and markings have lost more than 25% of the visibility that they displayed when they were new. Stripes around your parking stalls and pavement markings throughout your lot will not serve a useful function if people cannot see them. Check visibility during daylight hours and at night under both wet and dry conditions to determine what drivers and pedestrians can actually see.
• Winter took a heavy toll on your striping. Snowplows frequently damage or completely remove pavement markings and stripes. Some of the chemical deicing agents can also damage your parking lot markings.
• Your parking lot needs sealcoating. Sealants can help your asphalt pavement last longer and look better, but they will obscure your painted markings. Columbus Line Striping would be happy to provide both services to help you make things go more smoothly.
• You realize that you are not ADA-compliant. Failing to meet ADA regulations could result in fines or lawsuits. Sometimes, you can solve the problem with additional markings. At other times, you may need a new parking lot layout to comply. Columbus Line Striping can help in either scenario.
• You find your parking lot unattractive. Perhaps your last contractor did not provide the crisp, neat lines that you expected. Maybe your markings are stained or caked with grime. New stripes and markings could boost the curb appeal of your property.
• Drivers are not parking within the lines. If you have ever noticed how haphazardly drivers park when markings are obscured by snow, you probably noted that they left a great deal of room between cars, and they may have parked at the incorrect angle. They will tend to make the same type of mistakes if they cannot see the lines clearly.
