For parking lot striping Hurst TX businesses need, C & D Commercial Services has been painting commercial lots since 1981. Hurst is the geographic anchor of the HEB area — Hurst, Euless, Bedford — sitting at the intersection of Highway 121 and the Airport Freeway (SH-183). The city has a well-established commercial base along Pipeline Road, Harwood Road, and the Highway 121 frontage road. The Northeast Loop 820 forms the western boundary, bringing additional commercial traffic. Hurst’s lots are predominantly established properties — retail centers, restaurants, medical offices, and professional buildings that have been serving the community for decades.
C & D has been working in Hurst for decades. We’ve restriped retail centers along Pipeline Road, handled professional offices near the Hurst Town Center area, and striped commercial properties along the Highway 121 frontage road. The established nature of Hurst’s commercial landscape means we deal with aging asphalt, old paint buildup from multiple restripe cycles, and lots that need proper surface prep before new striping goes down.
Hurst’s commercial lots have been around for decades, and that affects every aspect of how we approach striping.
Retail and restaurant lots along Pipeline Road and Harwood Road have asphalt that’s been patched, overlaid, and restriped many times over the years. Old paint buildup is the most common issue we see — three or four layers of previous striping create ridges that prevent new paint from bonding properly. Without removing or flattening these ridges, new striping will lift within months. We power clean, scrape loose and peeling paint, and fill surface cracks before laying down new lines. This prep step is the difference between striping that lasts two years and striping that fails in six months.
The Hurst Town Center area along Highway 121 has newer commercial development with better asphalt condition. These lots see steady traffic from shoppers and diners. Standard acrylic traffic paint holds up for about 18 to 24 months in these conditions. For the busiest areas near the highway interchange, high-build paint may be worth the extra cost.
Medical and professional offices near the Northeast Mall area and along Precinct Line Road need clean, professional striping that signals quality. In a community where businesses have been serving the same customers for decades, appearance matters — and the parking lot is part of the impression.
We start by walking the property with you. On older Hurst lots, this walk-through is critical — we’re looking for surface damage, old paint condition, drainage problems, and layout issues that need correcting. We flag any ADA compliance gaps, which on lots this age are common — access aisles that are too narrow, signage that’s missing or mounted too low, accessible spaces that don’t meet current dimensional requirements.
Then we prep the surface. For older Hurst lots, this is the most important step. We blow off debris, power clean oil and grease stains with degreasers, remove loose and peeling paint from previous restripes, and fill surface cracks with traffic-grade sealer. We lay down chalk lines for the layout — following existing lines if the layout is correct, or measuring a new layout from scratch if the old one doesn’t meet current code.
The striping is done with an airless striping machine that applies paint at consistent width and thickness. For most Hurst properties, standard acrylic traffic paint is the right choice. For high-traffic areas near the Highway 121 interchange, we may recommend high-build paint for an extra 6 months of life between restripes. Thermoplastic is available but is usually more than most Hurst lots need.
When it comes to parking lot striping Hurst TX properties depend on, we also handle fire lane striping to Hurst Fire Department specifications. Fire lane markings on older properties are often the most outdated element — wrong width, wrong curb marking, missing stenciling. We bring them up to current requirements so you pass inspection.
ADA striping isn’t just about painting a blue symbol on the ground. Learn more about ADA compliance requirements on the official ADA website. Texas requires van-accessible spaces with 96-inch wide access aisles, signage mounted at the correct height, and specific slope requirements on the path from parking to your building entrance. Many Hurst commercial properties were built in the 1980s and 1990s, before current ADA standards were finalized. The rules have changed — the required number of accessible spaces, the access aisle dimensions, and the signage requirements have all been updated.
We bring lots into compliance — restriping accessible spaces to correct dimensions, adding or widening access aisles where space allows, installing proper signage at the correct height, and making sure the route from the parking lot to your entrance meets slope requirements. If you’re not sure whether your lot is compliant, we’ll walk it with you and tell you straight.
We don’t put prices on a website because every lot is different — and in Hurst, the age and condition of the lot is the biggest variable. A lot with 20 years of paint buildup needs more prep work than a newer lot. What we can tell you is this: we’ve been buying striping paint and materials from the same DFW suppliers for over 40 years. Those relationships mean we get better material pricing than smaller contractors, and we pass that along. Property managers who compare our quotes typically find we come in lower.
Call us for a free estimate. We’ll walk your lot, measure it, and give you a straightforward number with no games attached.
My Hurst lot has multiple layers of old paint. What do you do?
We power clean, scrape loose paint, and fill cracks before applying new striping. If the buildup is severe enough that ridges are clearly visible, we may recommend sandblasting the old lines off entirely. This creates a smooth surface for proper paint adhesion. Skipping prep is the most common reason striping fails prematurely, and we don’t cut corners.
What's the difference between paint and thermoplastic?
Standard acrylic traffic paint is what most Hurst lots use — cost-effective, goes down fast, lasts 18 to 24 months. High-build paint adds water resistance and 6 months of life. Thermoplastic is a fused material that bonds to the asphalt at a molecular level and lasts three to five times longer. For most Hurst lots, standard or high-build paint provides the best value.
Can you bring my older lot up to ADA code?
Yes. Many Hurst lots built in the 1980s and 1990s have never been updated to current ADA standards. We assess stall count ratios, access aisle dimensions, signage height, and path slope, then restripe to comply with both ADA and Texas Accessibility Standards.
Do you handle fire lane striping?
Yes, to Hurst Fire Department specifications. Fire lane markings on older properties are often the most outdated element — wrong width, wrong curb marking, missing stenciling. We bring them up to current requirements so you pass inspection.
