RESTAURANTS, RETAIL & MEDICAL · SINCE 1965
Parking lot striping for Restaurants, Retail & Medical.
For a small commercial property the lot is part of the storefront, seen before the sign is. Call (530) 587-4161.
What the work involves
Layout, stalls, arrows, and legends, painted to hold up against plow blades and traction sand. Striping over fresh sealcoat is also the cheapest moment there will ever be to fix a layout that was not working.
Why it matters for restaurants, retail & medical
Customers judge a business by its lot before they reach the door, and at Tahoe the busiest months for that lot are exactly the months the work has to happen in.
For restaurants, retail & medical, striping is the most visible small spend available. It is also the moment a layout that never worked can be corrected for the price of the paint.
How the job runs
Most areas are back in service the same day, since traffic paint sets fast in summer conditions. Fresh work gets coned off until it will not track. When striping follows a sealcoat it is the sealer cure that sets the schedule, not the paint.
Small commercial does best with phased work that never closes the whole lot, timed around actual business hours rather than around our convenience.
Why it matters at this elevation
Paint has a harder life here than it does anywhere lower. Plow blades scrape it, traction sand grinds it under tires all winter, and altitude UV bleaches what survives. That is why mountain properties restripe on a shorter cycle than the same property would down the hill.
What a job usually looks like
Small lots get done in phases, half at a time or on early-morning timing, so customers always have somewhere to park. The phasing plan gets agreed before the crew arrives rather than improvised on the day.
The usual package is crack sealing, surface treatment, then fresh markings, in that order. Restriping is also the moment to correct a layout that has never quite worked or an accessible stall that no longer meets code.

Questions
Is there a minimum job size?
No. Driveways are a large share of what we do and small jobs get grouped efficiently on the schedule. The thing that makes a small job hard is calling in late August, not the size of it.
Do you handle the whole job or subcontract it?
Our own crew does the work. Four people with a great deal of Sierra pavement between them, out of the Truckee yard. That is also why the schedule is finite and why booking early matters.
