Our Process

Space Considerations: How many parking spaces? How many accessible stalls? What is the regulated width of parking stalls and driveways?  

Paint Considerations: What type of parking lot line paint do you use? How quick does the paint dry? How long does the paint last?

Surface Considerations: What are your application limits? How do you prepare a surface? How do you remove unwanted markings?

How many parking spaces?

That depends on the size and use of the area. Zoning by-laws prescribe different approaches for different uses.

The calculation is easy:

1. Determine your use by consulting zoning by-law definitions — residential, recreational, medical, industrial areas.
2. Determine the GFA (Gross Floor Area).
3. Calculate the parking required based on the GFA and parking rate.
4. Determine the required number of parking spaces for persons with disabilities, as well as loading spaces.
