We handle the full marking scope for a commercial lot, from a simple restripe to a new layout. Typical work includes:
- Stall layoutStraight, angled and compact stalls measured to fit the lot and the way it is actually used.
- Re-layouts to add spacesWe re-measure the lot and lay out stalls where the geometry allows, without blocking drive aisles or fire access.
- Arrows and stop barsDirectional arrows and stop bars that keep traffic moving through the lot in one clear pattern.
- Stencils and numberingReserved, visitor and compact stencils plus unit numbers and other property labels.
- Curb paintingPainted curbs, including red curbs for fire lanes and no parking zones.
- Multi-color stripingColor schemes that separate tenant, visitor and accessible parking across the lot.
Fire lanes and red curbs
Fire lanes have to be marked the way the local fire marshal requires, and those requirements change from one jurisdiction to the next. We ask what your fire marshal expects before we mark anything, and we keep the markings consistent with the approved site plan. Red curbs, fire lane stencils and no parking zones are applied to that standard, not to a guess.
How often to restripe
Paint fades under the South Texas sun and wears where tires cross it. Busy entrances, drive aisles and turn areas go first, which is why a lot can look tired long before the pavement itself needs work.
A sealcoat cycle is the natural time to restripe. Fresh sealcoat covers the old lines, so new markings go down after the sealer cures. Restripe after every sealcoat, and touch up high traffic areas in between if the layout starts to disappear.
Night and weekend scheduling to avoid closing the lot
Most commercial striping is done after hours because paint needs time to dry before cars return and because closing stalls during business hours costs tenants and customers. We schedule night or weekend crews, phase the layout so only part of the lot is closed at a time, and tell property staff which sections to cone off and when they can reopen.

Frequently asked questions
- Can you restripe at night?
- Yes. Night and weekend work is common for commercial lots. We schedule around your operating hours and tell you which sections need to stay clear while the paint dries.
- Can you add parking spaces with a new layout?
- Sometimes. We re-measure the lot and propose a layout that gains stalls where the geometry allows, without blocking drive aisles, fire access or accessible routes.
- Should I restripe before or after sealcoating?
- After. Sealcoat covers old lines, so striping goes on last, in the same visit when the schedule allows.
- Do you mark fire lanes?
- Yes. We mark fire lanes and red curbs to the requirements of the local fire marshal for your property.
- Can you match our existing colors and layout?
- Yes. We work from your site plan or measure the lot and carry your color scheme through the new markings.
