The obvious purpose of parking lot stripes is to show where cars can and cannot park, including designating areas for handicapped parking and other special considerations. Parking lot striping isn’t a single-use service, meaning you’ll need to have your parking lot restriped as time goes by and the designated parking areas become less clear. Here are a few of the top signs that your parking lot is due for a striping service.
- Faded or blurry lines. Parking lot striping should be done whenever the line designations in your parking lot are no longer clear. The more time goes by, the more the lines will fade or become blurry due to constant exposure to the sun and weather. Generally speaking, parking lot stripes will need to be restriped due to fading every couple of years or so.
- New sealant. Asphalt sealing is a great way to help extend the lifespan of your parking lot and prevent issues like potholes from forming, but every time you have your parking lot resealed, you’ll want to look into restriping, as this new sealant layer covers up the existing striping.
- Parking issues. Maybe your current parking lot stripes aren’t necessarily faded, but they’re still causing issues for customers because they’re confusing. Parking lot striping is a common service for business owners to turn to when there have been frequent parking issues from customers having a hard time telling where they can and can’t park.
