Spring Parking Lot Maintenance Tips for Seattle

Spring is finally here in the Pacific Northwest, and that means it’s time to assess the wear and tear on your commercial property’s pavement. Whether you’re located in Seattle, Everett, or further north in Mount Vernon, the wet winter months can take a serious toll on your parking lot striping and pavement markings.

Rain, snow, and freeze-thaw cycles common to our region create the perfect storm for fading lines, slippery surfaces, and pooling water. Spring provides a much-needed opportunity to correct these issues before the busy summer season arrives. With increased foot traffic, outdoor shopping, and events returning, now is the time to make your parking lot safe, compliant, and visually appealing.

Why Spring is the Best Time for Parking Lot Maintenance

After months of moisture in areas like Kirkland or Skagit Valley, your lot might be showing early signs of deterioration. Spring’s moderate weather offers ideal conditions for:

• Re-striping faded parking lines
• Refreshing ADA-compliant pavement markings
• Adding directional arrows, crosswalks, and safety zones
• Pressure washing to remove built-up moss, grime, and oil stains

Benefits of Spring Striping & Pavement Marking

• Improve Safety: Clear markings reduce accidents, guide traffic, and ensure emergency access zones are visible.
• Stay Compliant: Ensure fire lanes and ADA stalls meet local city codes (see ADA guidelines).
• Enhance Curb Appeal: A freshly striped lot makes a great first impression for customers, tenants, and partners.
• Extend Pavement Life: Maintenance can delay the need for costly repaving by keeping surfaces protected and organized.
