Nanocore Services

At Nanocore Services, we specialize in professional line striping for parking lots, roads, and commercial properties. Our services ensure clear, durable, and compliant markings that enhance safety, organization, and curb appeal.

How We Perform Line Striping

Our process starts with a site assessment to understand your needs—whether it's a new layout or a refresh of existing lines. We use high-quality, traffic-grade paint or thermoplastic materials applied with precision striping machines. Here's our step-by-step approach:

• Preparation: We clean the surface with pressure washing or sweeping to remove dirt, debris, and old paint for better adhesion.
• Layout: Using chalk lines and measuring tools, we map out the design, ensuring compliance with local codes and ADA requirements (e.g., accessible parking spaces).
• Application: Paint is applied evenly with professional equipment, drying quickly to minimize downtime. Thermoplastic options are available for longer-lasting results.
• Inspection: We check for accuracy, visibility, and durability before handing over the finished project.

Why Line Striping is Needed

Line striping is essential for safety and efficiency. Clear markings guide traffic flow, designate parking spaces, and highlight pedestrian pathways. For businesses, faded or unclear lines can lead to confusion, accidents, or even legal liability. Well-maintained striping also improves property aesthetics, signaling professionalism and care.

How Often Should It Be Done?

The frequency depends on traffic volume, weather conditions, and material used:

• Standard Paint: Typically needs refreshing every 1-2 years in high-traffic areas like shopping centers or annually in milder climates.
• Thermoplastic: Can last 5-7 years, ideal for heavy-use zones like highways or industrial lots.
• Seasonal Factors: Harsh winters, UV exposure, or frequent rain can fade lines faster, so we recommend annual inspections.

We offer maintenance plans to keep your lines sharp year-round.

Laws and Regulations

Line striping must comply with federal, state, and local regulations, especially for public or commercial properties:

• ADA Compliance: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates accessible parking spaces with specific dimensions (e.g., 8 ft wide with a 5 ft access aisle) and signage. Non-compliance can result in fines or lawsuits.
• Fire Lanes: Local fire codes often require red-striped fire lanes to remain unobstructed, with regular upkeep to ensure visibility.
• Traffic Codes: State DOT regulations may dictate line width, color (e.g., white for parking, yellow for traffic), and reflectivity for night visibility.

We stay up-to-date on these laws to keep your property compliant and safe.

Additional Information

Here's what else you should know:

• Customization: We can stripe custom logos, arrows, or wording (e.g., "Loading Zone") to meet your needs.
• Best Conditions: Striping is most effective in dry weather above 50°F for proper curing.
• Cost Factors: Pricing depends on square footage, complexity (e.g., stencils), and material choice. Contact us for a free, detailed quote!
• Benefits: Beyond safety, fresh striping can boost property value and reduce insurance risks by minimizing accidents.
