Lines That Organize a Lot
Parking lot striping is the paint that turns open asphalt into a working lot: stall lines, accessible spaces, arrows, stop bars, crosswalks and fire lanes. In Bossier City's sun and rain, paint fades and wears, especially in drive lanes, and a lot with ghost lines loses capacity because drivers park unevenly. Restriping is one of the least expensive ways to make a property look cared for.
Restripe or new layout
Restriping follows the existing lines. A new layout redraws the lot, for example after an overlay, a change in use or a plan to add spaces. HomeGuide notes a new layout costs 20 to 50 percent more than restriping because it has to be measured and marked from scratch.
Accessible parking
Accessible stalls are the part of a layout that has to be exactly right. The 2010 ADA Standards set how many accessible spaces a lot needs, how wide the spaces and access aisles are, how many must be van-accessible and where they sit relative to the entrance. When a lot is restriped, that work is expected to meet the current standards. We lay out accessible spaces to those dimensions and point out signs and slopes that may need attention.
What we paint
- Standard and compact stalls
- Accessible stalls, access aisles and symbols
- Directional arrows and stop bars
- Crosswalks, fire lanes and loading zones
- Curb painting and stenciled words or numbers
Timing with sealcoating
Sealcoating covers old lines, so striping follows sealing once the sealer has dried. On new asphalt, striping goes on after the surface has cooled. We schedule striping for dry weather and at hours that keep your lot open.
Paint and visibility
Striping paint wears fastest in drive lanes and at entrances, where tires turn. Lots in the Shreveport-Bossier area also deal with strong sun that fades paint and heavy rain that washes dirt across lines. Lines that are hard to see at night or in rain are the first ones drivers ignore. Restriping on a regular schedule keeps spaces used efficiently and keeps fire lanes and crosswalks clear.
Layout basics
- Standard stalls are commonly about 9 by 18 feet
- Aisles need enough width for the parking angle used
- Accessible spaces sit on the shortest route to the entrance
- Arrows and stop bars guide one-way aisles and exits
We measure and mark before painting so the layout fits your lot.

Parking Lot Striping Questions
How often should a lot be restriped?
When the lines are hard to see, and every time the lot is sealcoated. Lots with heavy traffic wear lines faster in drive lanes.
Can you add more spaces?
Sometimes. A new layout can tighten up wasted space, within the limits of stall and aisle sizes and the accessible spaces the lot needs.
Will striping close my lot?
We stripe in sections and at off-hours so you can stay open. Paint dries quickly in warm weather.
Do you handle accessible stall layout?
Yes. We lay out accessible spaces and aisles to the 2010 ADA Standards and point out signs or slopes that may need a closer look.
What does striping a medium lot cost?
HomeGuide lists about $500 to $1,200 for a 30 to 50 stall lot, with typical mobilization fees of $150 to $350. New layouts cost 20 to 50 percent more than restriping.
