What are the benefits to re-painting the lines in a parking lot?If you find yourself asking the question above your not alone. In our experience most people do not take into account all the aspects of what it takes to accomplish a well laid out parking lot. When traffic is moving freely in and out of your business customers are happy and in return they spend more money with you. If they come in frustrated they are less likely to stay as long or spend as much. 5 Benefits are detailed below.
1) One of the main benefits to a well laid out and striped parking lot is that it will help your customers to avoid door dings. If your lines have faded over time due to UV exposure and participation you will notice that customers will begin to park further apart, to avoid door dings, since the spots are not clearly marked. For you this means less spaces available for the next customer to come in and thus a loss in revenue for the day. This can be avoided with clearly marked spaces that show drivers exactly how much room they have. |

2) While having the spaces clearly marked can help avoid door dings those clearly marked spots must also be spaced correctly. Todays parking spaces must accommodate everything from a smart car to lifted full size trucks and SUV's. If you haven't had your parking spaces re-painted in the last 10 years let us come out to measure your lot. With these measurements we can determine the optimal number of large and small spaces to make the most efficient use of the real estate you have.
3) A well marked parking lot also has the benefit of improved safety for your customers. If you are starting to notice that the parking lines are beginning to fade, look around and you'll find that the rest of the markings are in the same shape. When this |
happens your crosswalks and other signals to drivers that pedestrians may be walking in the area no longer serve their intended purpose. You as a commercial property owner are responsible for maintaining all fire lanes, handicapped markings, crosswalks, and arrows to control the flow of traffic. At High Point Paving and Sealcoating we take the safety of you, your customers, and our employees very seriously and use only top quality paints and materials that will last year in and year out to ensure that there is never a question of how your parking lot is navigated.
4) The other side benefit to improving the safety of people in and around your business is that it actually reduces your liability in the event that someone was to get injured on your property. We never want to see anyone get hurt but if they are injured due to faded parking lot markings you can be help liable for not only their injuries but also any lost wages from being out of work, earning potential, and emotional trauma.

5) The last major benefit to having a freshly painted and well designed parking lot is the increased curb appeal that it creates for your place of business. People may say that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover but the only reason they say that is because our natural tendency is to judge based on first impressions. Your parking lot is your cover since it is the first thing people see. Do you want them to see a neglected, run down, cracked surface with potholes scattered throughout the lot. This puts them in a mindset that is not conducive to them spending money with you.
