What Line Striping Involves

Line striping is the application of durable traffic paint to define parking stalls, drive lanes, crosswalks, fire lanes, and accessible parking on asphalt surfaces. A restripe follows an existing layout that's still visible. A new layout establishes stall positions from scratch, or reconfigures an existing lot to add capacity or correct compliance problems. Both require surface cleaning first, since paint applied over dust and debris fails early. Fremont Surface Care provides parking lot striping and ADA-compliant layout for commercial, multi-family, institutional, and municipal properties throughout Athens County and the six surrounding counties — Perry, Morgan, Washington, Meigs, Vinton, and Hocking — along with the wider Southeast Ohio region. Restriping is priced at $7 per standard stall and new layouts at $14 per stall, with a $300 minimum service charge. Every project begins with a free on-site assessment and a fixed-price proposal within 48 hours. Call (740) 508-2105.

Why Professional Striping Is a Smart Investment

Faded striping costs you in three ways at once.

Capacity. A well-engineered layout often yields ten to fifteen percent more stalls in the same square footage. Most lots were laid out once, decades ago, and never revisited. Reconfiguring dimensions and angles can add spaces without adding pavement.
Liability. Unclear traffic flow produces fender-benders in your lot, and faded crosswalks put pedestrians in conflict with vehicles. Non-compliant accessible parking creates a separate and more serious exposure — one that arrives as a complaint rather than an accident.
Perception. Crisp markings signal a property that's managed. Faded, crooked, or mismatched lines signal one that isn't, and every tenant and customer reads that before they reach your front door.

Striping is also the cheapest improvement available to a commercial property. There is no other work that changes how a lot looks and functions this much for this little.

How Many ADA Accessible Spaces Does Your Lot Need?

Accessible parking counts are set by the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and apply to most commercial and public-use parking facilities. The requirement scales with your total stall count:

1 – 100 Spaces:

1–25 spaces → 1 accessible space
26–50 spaces → 2 accessible spaces
51–75 spaces → 3 accessible spaces
76–100 spaces → 4 accessible spaces

101 – 500 Spaces:

101–150 spaces → 5 accessible spaces
151–200 spaces → 6 accessible spaces
201–300 spaces → 7 accessible spaces
301–400 spaces → 8 accessible spaces
401–500 spaces → 9 accessible spaces

501+ Spaces:

501–1,000 spaces → 2% of total spaces
1,001+ spaces → 20 spaces + 1 per 100 over 1,000

Van-accessible spaces. At least one in every six accessible spaces must be van accessible, with a minimum of one per lot. Van spaces require a wider access aisle and higher vertical clearance.

Access aisles. Every accessible space needs an adjacent marked access aisle. Two accessible spaces may share one aisle. Access aisles must be level, connect to an accessible route, and cannot be used for parking.

Signage. Each accessible space requires a sign mounted high enough to remain visible when a vehicle is parked in the space. Van spaces need additional designation.

Where it usually goes wrong. In our experience the most common problems in Southeast Ohio lots aren't missing spaces — they're access aisles that have faded to invisibility, accessible spaces placed on a slope, signage mounted too low, or a lot that added stalls over the years without recalculating the required accessible count.

We measure your layout, count your stalls, and identify compliance gaps as part of every assessment. We're a striping contractor, not a code consultant — for a formal compliance determination, particularly on a property facing a complaint, involve an accessibility specialist or your attorney. What we can do is show you where your lot stands and bring the markings up to standard.

What Does Line Striping Cost?

We publish our rates. Most striping contractors won't.

Line Striping & Layout Rates

Standard Parking Stall:

Restripe: $7.00 each
New Layout: $14.00 each

Straight Lines, Cross-Hatching & Access Aisles:

Restripe: $0.39 per linear foot
New Layout: $0.78 per linear foot

Curb Painting: $1.17 per linear foot

Surface Power Blowing: $100.00 (required on every job)

Stencils & Pavement Markings

(Flat rate for restripe or new layout)

ADA Blue Box w/ Accessibility Symbol: $45.00 each
Directional Traffic Arrow: $25.00 each
"No Parking," "Reserved," or "Fire Lane" Stencil: $25.00 each
Stop Bar: $25.00 each
Individual Letter or Number Stencil: $5.00 each

Minimum service charge: $300.

Restripe or new layout? A restripe follows your existing lines and costs half as much. A new layout means measuring and marking stall positions from scratch — necessary when the old lines are gone, when the lot has just been sealcoated, or when you want to reconfigure for more capacity or ADA compliance.

What a real job looks like: a 40-stall office lot restripe with two ADA spaces runs $280 for stalls, $90 for the ADA symbols, roughly $14 for access aisle markings, and $100 for surface cleaning — about $484, in writing, before we start.

Schedule striping with sealcoating. Sealcoat covers existing lines, so the two go together naturally, and combining them means one visit instead of two. Striping is always the final step in any pavement maintenance sequence.

*Pricing effective August 2026. Athens County has no travel charge. Regional counties — Perry, Morgan, Washington, Meigs, Vinton, and Hocking — add a flat $75 travel charge, waived on projects over $1,000. Other Southeast Ohio counties quoted per job. Subject to change; your written proposal is the binding price.

Benefits of Professional Striping

Maximize revenue. A professionally engineered layout often yields ten to fifteen percent more stalls in the same square footage.
Reduce liability. Clearly marked crosswalks, fire lanes, and directional flow prevent accidents and the disputes that follow them.
Enhance curb appeal. Nothing makes a property look better maintained than crisp, uniform markings on a well-sealed surface.
ADA peace of mind. We verify your accessible stall count, access aisles, and signage against current standards and bring your markings up to code.
Protect your sealcoat. Striping applied over fresh sealcoat lasts longer and looks sharper than paint fighting for adhesion on a worn surface.

Our Striping Process

Advanced parking lot line striping layout

Phase 1: Layout engineering.

We don't just repaint existing lines. We evaluate your current layout for capacity, traffic flow, and ADA compliance, and identify where a reconfiguration would gain you stalls or resolve a compliance gap before any paint goes down.

Clean parking lot ready for line striping

Phase 2: Surface preparation.

A power blowing sweep removes all dirt, dust, and debris. Paint applied over a dirty surface fails within a season regardless of quality, which is why this step is on every job rather than an option.

Commercial airless striping equipment applying parking lot markings

Phase 3: Precision application.

Commercial-grade airless striping equipment with DOT-approved traffic paint, applied to consistent width and film thickness. We manage traffic control throughout so your lot reopens cleanly.

Line Striping FAQs

How long does traffic paint take to dry before cars can drive on it?

Under good conditions — warm and dry — paint is typically dry to the touch in about 30 minutes. We recommend keeping vehicle traffic off newly striped areas for at least an hour or two so the markings cure completely and don't track across the lot.

Will striping disrupt my business operations?

No. We schedule around your operating hours, including nights, early mornings, and weekends. On larger properties we stripe in sections so you never have to close the entire lot at once.

How many ADA accessible spaces does my lot need?

It scales with total stall count under the 2010 ADA Standards: one accessible space for lots up to 25 stalls, two for 26–50, four for 76–100, and so on. At least one in every six accessible spaces must be van accessible. We count your stalls and verify your layout during the assessment.

How much does it cost to restripe a parking lot?

Fremont Surface Care charges $7.00 per standard stall for restriping and $14.00 per stall for a new layout, plus $45.00 per ADA accessible space marking and a $100.00 surface cleaning charge. The minimum service charge is $300. A 40-stall office lot restripe with two ADA spaces runs roughly $484.

What's the difference between a restripe and a new layout?

A restripe follows your existing lines and costs half as much per stall. A new layout means measuring and marking stall positions from scratch, which is required when the old lines are no longer visible, after sealcoating has covered them, or when you're reconfiguring the lot for more capacity or ADA compliance.

Can you redesign my lot to fit more cars?

Often, yes. Many lots were laid out decades ago and never revisited. Adjusting stall dimensions, angles, and drive lane widths can increase capacity within the same footprint while improving traffic flow. We evaluate that potential during the assessment.

How often should a parking lot be restriped?

Every one to three years for most commercial properties, depending on traffic volume, snow plowing, and sun exposure. High-traffic retail lots and any lot that gets plowed regularly wear faster. Fire lanes and ADA markings are worth refreshing sooner, since those carry compliance weight.

Do you stripe parking lots in Athens, Marietta, Pomeroy, and Logan?

Yes. We're based in Athens County and work throughout it, along with the six surrounding counties: Perry, Morgan, Washington, Meigs, Vinton, and Hocking. That covers Marietta, Logan, Pomeroy, New Lexington, McConnelsville, and McArthur. We also serve Gallia, Jackson, Lawrence, Monroe, and Noble counties. Call (740) 508-2105 to confirm coverage for your address.

Do you offer parking lot striping packages?

Yes. We offer five packages scaled by property size, from Storefront for lots up to 25 stalls to Regional Property for lots up to 400. Each includes surface cleaning, the ADA-compliant accessible spaces required for that lot size, and standard markings such as directional arrows and stop bars. Restriping packages start at $375. Package prices are a maximum — properties with fewer stalls than the tier's limit pay for their actual count.
