Professional Line Striping to Improve Safety, Traffic Flow & ADA Compliance in the Carolinas
Clear, visible parking lot striping keeps your property safe and organized. It directs drivers, pedestrians, and delivery vehicles so they know exactly where to drive, park, and stop. When markings fade, visibility drops, and the risk of traffic hazards rises.
Carolina Asphalt restores the safety and flow of your lot with crisp, professional pavement markings. We provide high-quality striping services throughout Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Columbia, Greenville, and nearby communities.
We work with commercial, municipal, retail, industrial, and HOA properties to support safety, traffic flow, ADA compliance, and overall curb appeal.
Professional Parking Lot Striping To Improve Safety & Traffic Flow
Pavement striping is a vital component of any well-maintained parking lot. It helps both drivers and pedestrians navigate the space efficiently.
Increased safety
Clear markings reduce the likelihood of accidents by directing traffic and guiding pedestrian movement.
Improved navigation
Helps drivers park more efficiently and safely, improving overall parking capacity.
Maximized parking spaces
Well-planned striping allows for more cars to fit comfortably within the designated spaces.
ADA compliance
Proper striping of handicap spaces and access aisles ensures compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Enhanced curb appeal
Freshly striped parking lots present a clean, well-maintained appearance.
Parking lot striping also improves visibility during severe weather, high-traffic periods, and at night.
Our Pavement Marking & Striping Process
At Carolina Asphalt, we follow a precise process to apply clean and bright asphalt striping on your lot.
Our pavement marking process includes:

Surface Preparation
We thoroughly clean the parking lot to ensure a smooth line striping application. This includes:
• Sweeping and blowing away debris to prevent obstructions during striping.
• Removing any old striping for a clean slate for new markings.

Layout & Planning
Next, we plan the parking lot striping layout to optimize your lot’s design. This includes:
• Strategically planning traffic flow to maximize space and reduce confusion.
• Ensuring compliance with ADA and local North Carolina/South Carolina requirements.

Applying the Markings
We use striping machines, thermoplastic applicators, and traffic-grade paint for precise application of parking lines, arrows, and other pavement markings. Thermoplastic paint has durability benefits, making it the best choice for high-traffic areas.

Drying, Curing & Final Inspection
Once the markings are applied, we allow for proper curing. Traffic-grade paint typically cures within 30 to 60 minutes, while thermoplastic material cools more quickly.
We also perform a final inspection to ensure that everything is aligned correctly for the best possible results.

Parking Lot Striping FAQs
What types of pavement markings can you install or repaint?
We can install and repaint parking lines, ADA stalls, arrows, crosswalks, loading zones, fire lanes, safety zones, and custom stenciling. We handle both new layouts and re-striping for existing lots.
How long does parking lot striping paint last?
Traffic-grade paint typically lasts 1 to 3 years, while thermoplastic applications can last 5 to 10 years or more in high-traffic areas. We also recommend sealcoating services to extend the longevity of your line striping.
Can you stripe both asphalt and concrete surfaces?
Yes, we can stripe both asphalt and concrete surfaces. Surface preparation may differ slightly between the two.
How quickly can traffic return to the parking lot after striping?
Traffic-grade paint cures in 30 to 60 minutes, while thermoplastic cools quickly, allowing for fast traffic return. Weather conditions can impact drying time.
Do you offer ADA-compliant striping and signage?
Yes, we provide ADA stalls, access aisles, ramp markings, and van-accessible spots, ensuring compliance with NC/SC regulations.
How much does parking lot striping cost?
The cost depends on factors like lot size, layout, material type, and the number of markings. Parking lot striping is much more affordable than resurfacing.
