Initial Site Visit

We come out to your Morrisonville property to check the area, measure, and discuss your specific striping needs. We'll look at existing layouts or help design new ones.

Surface Preparation

Before any paint goes down, we clean the asphalt thoroughly. This means sweeping, blowing off debris, and sometimes power washing to ensure the paint adheres correctly and lasts.

Precision Layout

Using chalk lines and stencils, we accurately mark out all parking spaces, arrows, symbols, and fire lanes. We double-check measurements to make sure everything is straight and spaced right.

Application & Curing

We apply durable, high-quality traffic paint using specialized striping machines. We then allow adequate time for the paint to cure, usually a few hours, before reopening the area.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does asphalt striping usually last in Morrisonville?

Asphalt striping in Morrisonville usually holds up for about 1 to 3 years. How long it lasts really depends on how much traffic it sees and, of course, the weather. Think about it: a busy commercial parking lot will wear down a lot faster than, say, a private road. And our tough winters, with all that snow plowing and salt? They definitely play a part in how quickly the paint fades. It's just a fact of life around here.

What kind of paint do you use for striping?

We pick out tough, top-notch traffic paint, the kind made just for asphalt. This stuff really holds up, built to take a beating from heavy vehicles, constant sun, and all those crazy freeze-thaw cycles we know so well here in Morrisonville. Plus, it dries fast, which means less hassle for your property.

Can you re-stripe over existing faded lines, or do they need to be removed first?

Sure, we can usually re-stripe right over your existing faded lines. That's assuming, of course, the old ones are still somewhat there and the asphalt itself is in decent shape. If those lines are just too far gone, though, or if you're looking to change the layout completely, we might suggest blacking out the old marks first. It just gives everything a much cleaner finish, you know? We'll figure all this out when we come by for our site visit.

How long until I can drive or walk on newly striped areas?

Good news! You can usually drive or walk on those freshly striped areas pretty quickly — figure about 30 minutes to an hour after we're done. It really just depends on how warm and humid it is that day. We actually use a special fast-drying paint, so your property gets back to normal in a flash. Don't worry, we'll give you the exact timeframe for your specific job before we head out.
