The Line Striping Procedure

At PKS Paving, our parking lot striping and pavement marking process is backed by decades of industry expertise. Our process is tailored to meet the needs of Atlanta businesses and commercial surfaces.

Surface Prep

Our initial step in the parking lot striping process is to carefully clear and safely dispose of any debris from the existing pavement. This ensures our team can accurately apply the pavement markings for optimal efficiency and appearance. 

Marking Application

Next, we apply the markings, such as lane lines, crosswalks, turn arrows, and symbols. Our contractors use specialized equipment such as paint striping machines and thermoplastic applicators to ensure appropriate coverage and precision.

Dry & Cure

Lastly, we allow the newly applied markings to dry and cure thoroughly. Once they have, normal activities can resume on the pavement.

How Long Does it Take for Fresh Line Striping to Dry?

Worried about how long a line striping job will put your parking lot out of commission? Fortunately, parking lot restriping only needs to be done every few years. Still, we understand your concern about the potential loss of business during the drying time.

The good news is that line striping can be combined with other parking lot maintenance services to minimize downtime and optimize your time.

Typically, the drying time for a line striping job is about 2 hours after application. However, it can vary based on the following factors:

  • Temperature: Drying time is faster in warmer weather. It’s best to apply fresh paint when temperatures are around 70°F and 80°F. 
  • Humidity: High humidity levels slow the drying process. When moisture is present in the air, it will take longer for the paint to dry fully.
  • Wind: Wind can also affect drying time. If it’s windy outside with a lot of air movement, the paint will dry faster.

With these factors in mind, the best time for line striping to dry the fastest is on a warm, dry, and breezy day. If you’re interested in our services, call us for a free estimate. 

At PKS Paving, we prioritize efficient and meticulous work that minimizes disruption to your business. We’ll work around your schedule to deliver a quality and functional surface without compromising quality.

When Should I Restripe My Parking Lot?

Keeping your parking lot well-marked is essential for safety, efficiency, and compliance. Here are the key signs it’s time to restripe:

  • Confusing Layout: If your lot’s layout is unclear or hard to navigate, it’s time to restripe for safe traffic flow. 
  • Outdated ADA Compliance: If your parking lot markings no longer meet ADA guidelines, it’s crucial to restripe to ensure accessibility and avoid potential penalties.
  • After Sealcoating: New striping is needed after sealcoating to restore visibility and organization.
  • Faded or Dull Lines: When lines are faded or worn, restriping improves both appearance and safety.

As a best practice, it’s generally recommended to restripe your parking lot every 18 months to 2 years. 

Scheduling regular maintenance with PKS Paving contractors will keep your parking lot looking professional and ensure it remains safe and efficient for everyone using it.

Seal & Stripe with PKS Paving

Sealcoating and parking lot striping go hand in hand, often performed together for streamlined results. After sealant is applied to your pavement, it naturally covers any existing markings, requiring a fresh striping job 

By scheduling a sealcoating every 2 years, adding striping is a simple and efficient solution. Our seal and stripe service saves your business time and money by minimizing downtime for business operations and simplifying the process. 

At PKS Paving, we’re excited to offer this comprehensive service, providing you with a freshly sealed blacktop and rejuvenated parking lot markings all in one go.
