Parking Lot Striping & ADA Compliance in Dallas–Fort Worth
Faded stripes cost you stalls, invite complaints and make an otherwise decent property look neglected. Non-compliant accessible parking costs you a lot more than that.
We restripe existing layouts, redesign lots for better circulation and stall count, and bring accessible parking up to current Texas Accessibility Standards.
What's included
Parking Lot Striping & Restriping
Restriping
Standard stalls, drive lanes, arrows, stop bars and crosswalks in commercial traffic paint.
Layout design
Recount and reconfigure to add spaces or improve fire lane and truck circulation.
ADA stalls and access aisles
Correct stall and aisle widths, van-accessible spaces and route slopes checked, not guessed.
Signage and posts
Compliant signs at required mounting heights, including van-accessible and fine notices.
Fire lanes and curb painting
Red curb, lettering and markings coordinated with the local fire marshal's requirements.
Thermoplastic and specialty markings
Long-life markings for entries, EV stalls, loading zones and truck courts.
ADA Parking Lot Requirements
Accessible parking is the most commonly cited accessibility issue on Texas commercial property, and most of it comes down to counts, widths, slopes and signage that nobody has measured in years.
We verify the accessible stall count against the current total, measure stall and aisle widths, check slopes with a level rather than by eye, and confirm signage type and mounting height before any paint is opened.
Layout Design & Restriping Cost
Restriping an existing layout in DFW generally runs about $0.10 to $0.18 per square foot, or per-stall pricing on smaller lots. A full redesign costs more up front and often pays for itself in recovered stall count and cleaner truck circulation.
We provide a marked layout and a compliance punch list before the crew mobilizes, so nothing gets painted twice.
The Blackland factor
Where Blackland Clay Shows Up in Striping
Soil movement quietly breaks ADA compliance. An accessible stall that was within slope tolerance at construction can drift out of it after a few seasons of swell and shrink, and so can a ramp landing or an access aisle.
We check slopes and pavement condition on accessible routes when we stripe, so you are not repainting compliance onto pavement that no longer meets it.

FAQ
Striping & ADA FAQ
- How often should a parking lot be restriped?
- Every 18 to 24 months for most commercial properties, or immediately after sealcoating and resurfacing.
- How many accessible spaces do we need?
- It scales with total stall count under Texas Accessibility Standards, with at least one van-accessible space per accessible group. We run the count during the assessment.

- Yes. Most retail, grocery and office work is done overnight or on weekends to keep the property open.
- How long does paint need to dry?
- Typically one to two hours for traffic paint. Thermoplastic is ready even faster.
