Restriping Your Parking Lot and Other Pavement Markings
Our recommendation is to restripe your parking lot every 18 to 24 months. This recommendation is simply a guideline as there are many factors such as vehicle traffic and weather conditions that would dictate how often you should restripe. If your parking lot is needing to be refreshed, we will be glad to assist. Restriping your parking lot enhances curb appeal and provides safety for your customers, and keeps your lot in compliance with ADA requirements.
What Are the Benefits of Parking Lot Striping?
- Compliance (ADA, and local compliance regulations)
- Parking Lot Safety
- Curb Appeal
New or refreshed striping will always increase curb appeal which is an extra added benefit of having your parking lot lines freshly painted. Your parking lot will be safer and look better, whenever you have nice clean, and easy to see lines. As a business owner, it is beneficial to keep your parking lot looking spectacular, not only for looks but for the safety of the customers.
New Layout Striping and Pavement Marking
New layout striping is where parking lines are put down for the first time on a parking lot. The lines must be measured to proper length and width. The physical design of your parking lot will most likely dictate the layout that will work best for traffic flow and parking vehicles in the lot. Don’t worry! We can assist with getting a proper layout if you do not have one already.
In contrast to restriping, where a fresh coat of pavement paint is applied over existing parking lines, new layout striping requires a bit more time to measure the lines, mark them, and then apply the traffic paint with a striping machine. The lines have to be applied properly to ensure they are always straight and uniform.

What Makes Parking Lot Striping Important?
Parking lot striping adds value to your property. One of the fastest and most economical ways to give your parking lot a fresh new look is to re-stripe the parking lot or garage. New, line striping in the lot looks clean and neat and will and provide a good first impression for your customers or tenants. Parking lot striping is also essential for proper traffic flow and safety. More than 50,000 vehicle accidents are reported each year in parking lots. Accidents can be reduced by providing clear traffic lanes, flow patterns, and keeping the driver's attention with proper signage throughout the lot.
What Kind of Striping Paint Do You Use?
We use high-quality traffic paint to stripe the lines in your parking lot. There are different types of paints we can choose from and will determine if you have a specific requirement for your project. For instance, acrylic oil-based paint lasts much longer than water-based or chlorinated rubber paint. The specifications of your project will determine what type of paint may be required. No matter which type of paint is needed, we always use the highest quality to ensure a professional look every time.

ADA Compliance and Handicap Striping in Hammond, Louisiana
Ada Compliance and Handicap stripingLet the experts at Parking Lot Striping Hammond handle all of your handicap space striping and stenciling needs.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law on July 26, 1990. It is a wide-ranging law to make American Society more accessible to people with disabilities. Parking Lot Striping Hammond carries the most current and up-to-date handicap stenciling products to ensure that all of your handicap spaces look clean, visible, and are ADA compliant. Having your handicap spaces striped and properly stenciled will help protect your organization from fines and other city violations. |
How Many Handicapped Spaces Are Required?The first thing to remember regarding handicap spaces is that no matter how many handicapped spaces are required, the first handicapped space must meet the requirements for van accessibility and be labeled as such.
The actual number of ADA-compliant spaces required depends on the total number of parking spaces in your lot. Don’t worry our experts will help you figure out what is needed to make sure your parking lot is fully compliant. • If your lot contains fewer than 100 total parking spaces, you must have one handicapped space for every 25 parking spaces. • If your lot has between 101 and 150 spaces, you will need five handicapped spaces. • If your lot has 151 to 200 total spaces, six must be ADA-compliant. • If your lot has between 201 and 300 total spaces, you must have seven handicapped spaces. • If your lot has 301 or more total parking spaces, one out of eight must be ADA-compliant. |
Sizes and Placement of Handicap Parking SpacesHandicap accessible parking spaces must be a minimum of 8 feet in width. All ADA-compliant spaces must include an access aisle with a minimum width of 8 feet for van-accessible spaces or 5 feet for automobile-accessible spaces. The access aisle must run the entire length of the space and cannot intrude into it.
Adjacent parking spaces may share an access aisle. The path from the handicapped spaces to your building access point must be the shortest, most direct route. If there are curbs in the way, the curb must have a ramp. The ramp cannot intrude into the access aisle or parking space. If the shortest route crosses a path of vehicular traffic, crosswalks must be marked. |
Other Parking Lot Maintenance Services
Wheel stops are an important safety element for any parking lot. Wheelstops keep cars from damaging signs, walls, curbs, or even other cars. There are several types of wheel stop that we install. Typically wheel stops are 72” long – long enough for both front or rear wheels of a vehicle to touch the wheel stop. Parking Lot Striping Hammond has been installing wheel stops in parking lots in the area for many years.
- Concrete Wheel Stops
- Rubber Wheel Stops
- Plastic Wheel Stops
Wheel STops
Concrete Wheel Stops Concrete wheel stops are often preferred because they are the most economical. The wheel stops are attached to the parking lot either by rebar or epoxy. Concrete wheel stops can also be painted for aesthetics or functional purposes if desired. We can install these wheel stops on both concrete or asphalt parking lots or in parking garages. The main disadvantage of concrete wheel stops is their durability over time. Over time, they can crack or chip due to the car's tires constantly bumping them. Concrete wheel stops are sometimes painted yellow or white as part of a parking lot striping project.
|
Plastic Wheel StopsPlastic wheel stops are more expensive than concrete wheel stops, however, their advantage is they are more durable and maintain their color longer. plastic wheel stops come pre-colored from the manufacturer.
They are manufactured with a dye that colors it all the way through so the color will not wear off over time and they don’t scuff as much as concrete. We usually install these wheel stops with anchors or epoxy. You can also buy wheel stops made from recycled plastic, these are useful if you are managing a building with a LEED certification. |
Rubber Wheel StopsMost rubber wheel stops are made from recycled rubber and are a durable, reliable, long-lasting alternative to traditional concrete stops.
Rubber car stops cost less to install and will not require heavy lift equipment, one person can install these easily. Studies have shown that over 10 years, concrete wheel stops could cost six times more than recycled rubber models due to cracking/maintenance issues. |

Pressure Washing Your Parking LotBefore striping your parking lot, the pavement should be prepped properly and that may include pressure washing. Prepping the parking lot surface is just as important as striping. If prepping is not done correctly, the paint may not adhere properly, no matter how high the quality of the traffic paint.

|
Before a surface can be striped, it must be clean. If the project is a restripe, any old paint that is going to chip needs to be removed before a new coat of paint is put on top of it. Once we evaluate your parking lot, we can give your our professional advice on if your parking lot should be pressure washed or not.
Asphalt Sealcoating
ASPHALT SEALCOATING PARKING LOT RESTORATIONSealcoating is a preventative maintenance procedure that will help prolong the life of your asphalt pavement. Sealcoating helps keeps water from penetrating beneath the asphalt and prevents potholes from forming. This preventative maintenance also makes the parking lot last longer as long as it is performed regularly. The sealcoat also makes the pavement darker, improving the aesthetics and also increasing the contract between the asphalt and the overlying striping paint. After the sealcoating is applied, we stripe the parking lot. The fresh paint on top of the sealcoat will make your parking lot look amazing.
Sealcoating Increases Pavement LifeIt is important to implement a maintenance program that utilizes sealcoating to extend the life of your parking lot or driveway. Sealcoating will provide a layer of protection blocking out harmful intrusions such as water, oils, and U.V. damage. Also, when asphalt sealer is applied to manufacturers’ specifications, sealcoating provides a slip-resistant surface with a deep black finish that beautifies the parking lot or driveway.
A regularly scheduled sealcoating program can more than double the life of the asphalt, saving you significant money in the future.
Instead of having to pay thousands of dollars for new pavement, it is more cost-effective to spend only pennies on the dollar per square foot to maintain with proper sealcoating. |
