Professional Pavement Striping Contractors
Pavement Striping Contractors specializing in pavement striping (pavement marking), signs, wheel stops, speed bumps, and bollards for commercial and residential properties. These services help improve safety, organization, and compliance with regulations for parking lots, roadways, and other paved surfaces. Here’s a complete breakdown of the services we offer.
- Layout and Design Planning: Determining the layout based on parking lot or roadway dimensions, traffic flow, and ADA compliance. This includes deciding the placement of spaces, directional arrows, crosswalks, and other markings.
- Line Striping and Markings: Applying high-quality paint to create parking lines, directional arrows, crosswalks, loading zones, and fire lanes. Fast-drying and durable paint is typically used to withstand weather and traffic.
- ADA Compliance Markings: Adding wheelchair-accessible parking spots and signage, ensuring that the parking lot complies with ADA regulations.
- Reflective Markings: Using reflective or thermoplastic markings for enhanced visibility, especially on high-traffic or low-light surfaces.
- Re-striping: Reapplying faded lines and markings to refresh the appearance and maintain clarity, generally recommended every 1-3 years depending on traffic.
- Regulatory and Informational Signs: Installing regulatory signs (e.g., stop, yield, and speed limit signs) and informational signs (e.g., directional arrows and wayfinding signs).
- ADA and Handicap Signs: Adding proper signage for accessible parking spaces to ensure ADA compliance. This includes mounting the signs at the correct height and location.
- Custom Signs: Designing and installing custom signage based on specific property needs, such as reserved parking, visitor parking, loading zones, and no-parking zones.
- Reflective and Weather-Resistant Materials: Using durable, reflective materials to ensure visibility and longevity in various weather conditions.
- Inspection and Maintenance: Regularly inspecting signs to check for damage or wear and making replacements or repairs as needed to keep signs legible and compliant.
- Material Selection: Installing wheel stops made from durable materials, such as concrete, rubber, or recycled plastic, depending on the property's needs and budget.
- Correct Placement: Placing wheel stops a specific distance from the end of the parking space to help vehicles park within designated spaces without causing damage to curbs or landscaping.
- Anchoring and Securing: Securing wheel stops with rebar pins or bolts to ensure they remain fixed in place even with repeated vehicle contact.
- Reflective Striping or Paint: Adding reflective or brightly colored paint for visibility, especially in low-light areas.
- Maintenance and Replacement: Inspecting periodically to repair or replace damaged wheel stops that may become loose, cracked, or deteriorated over time.
- Site Assessment: Assessing areas with high pedestrian activity or where speed reduction is required, such as near crosswalks, entrances, or exits.
- Material Options: Installing speed bumps made from concrete, asphalt, or rubber. Rubber speed bumps are often preferred for flexibility, durability, and easy removal if needed.
- Correct Placement and Spacing: Positioning speed bumps at recommended intervals to slow vehicles to a safe speed without causing discomfort to drivers.
- Reflective Marking and Striping: Painting speed bumps with reflective yellow or white stripes to improve visibility, especially at night.
- Speed Bump Signs: Installing nearby signage to alert drivers to the presence of speed bumps, improving safety and compliance.
- Maintenance and Repair: Checking speed bumps periodically for wear, cracking, or damage, and repainting or repairing as needed to maintain visibility and effectiveness.
- Site Assessment and Planning: Identifying locations where bollards are needed for safety or traffic control, such as near building entrances, pedestrian walkways, parking lot perimeters, or storefronts.
- Material Selection: Choosing bollard types based on purpose, including steel, concrete, or plastic for decorative bollards, and crash-rated steel bollards for impact protection.
- Mounting and Installation: Installing bollards with appropriate footings to ensure they are securely embedded, either bolted or installed with concrete for stability.
- Decorative and Removable Options: Offering decorative bollards to match site aesthetics or removable bollards for temporary access control.
- Reflective or Painted Finishes: Adding reflective tape or paint in bright colors for visibility, particularly in high-traffic areas or during low-light conditions.
- Maintenance and Replacement: Checking bollards for rust, paint chipping, or damage and performing any necessary maintenance or replacement to keep them looking and functioning as intended.
Implementing these services as part of regular maintenance helps prolong the lifespan of pavement markings, keeps the area safe for users, and ensures that the property remains compliant with safety and accessibility standards. Ready to hire Pavement Striping Contractors? Get a free quote today.
