Working in Oakdale

Oakdale Village is three buildings with a pad still open, Fleet Farm and the Cub at Bergen Plaza carry cart traffic across the aisles, and the clinic buildings on Helmo are where the accessible stalls get used hardest. ADA stalls and access aisles go in at the federal dimensions rather than eyeballed, with fire lanes and loading zones marked alongside them. A layout that's changing at all gets measured and chalked first, and a restripe over fresh sealer waits for the sealer to cure.

Layout first, then paint

Repainting existing lines is the easy half. The half that matters is whether those lines were right in the first place, and on a lot that's been restriped three or four times by different crews, they usually have drifted. Stalls narrow by an inch each time somebody paints beside the old line rather than over it, drive aisles shrink, and eventually a delivery truck can't make the turn. We measure before we paint. Sometimes that means telling you the layout you have fits fewer cars than the layout you could have, which is a conversation worth having before the paint goes down rather than after.

What Decides the Price in Oakdale

Priced per stall for straightforward restripes, or as a lump sum where there's layout work, ADA work or a lot of detail.

New layout

Per stall, measured and set out

Measured on site

  • Where the layout has drifted or the use has changed

ADA stall with access aisle

Each

Measured on site

  • Stall, hatched access aisle and symbol
  • Signage and post priced separately if needed

Detail work

Arrows, fire lanes, numbers, crosswalks

Measured on site

  • Priced per item
  • Stencils and custom legends available

Striping done at the same visit as sealcoating costs less than striping done on its own, because the trip is already paid for and the surface is already right. If both are due, do both.

How the Work Goes in Oakdale

Planned with you before the first stripe goes down.

Measure what's there

Stall widths, aisle widths, the accessible stalls and their aisles. This is where drift shows up, and it's a five-minute job that avoids repainting a layout that has quietly stopped working.

Clean the surface

Blown down. Paint over grit is paint that comes up with the grit, usually the first time a plow goes over it.

Lay out and chalk

Anything other than a straight restripe gets set out and chalked first, so you can look at it before it's permanent.

Paint

Traffic paint at the right film thickness. Thin paint looks the same on the day and is gone in a season, which is the striping equivalent of a thin seal.

Open it back up

Traffic paint is dry to walk on in under an hour. How long before cars go back on it depends on the paint and the weather that afternoon, so you get the real number that day.

Questions We Get in Oakdale

What Oakdale calls us about, answered straight.

More questions answered
How far out do you come? We're right off I-694.
Oakdale is about 79 miles from Eau Claire and a bit over an hour and a quarter, nearly all of it I-94. For commercial lots we come out. Send the address and what the lot needs and we'll set up a time to walk it. The estimate is free.
How much does it cost to restripe a parking lot?
It is priced per stall, and the thing that moves it most is whether the old lines can be followed. A straightforward restripe over a layout that is still visible is the cheap end. A new layout costs more per stall because it has to be measured and set out from scratch. ADA stalls cost more than standard ones: they are wider, they carry an access aisle and they need the symbol and the signage.
How often does a lot need restriping?
Every one to three years in Oakdale and the surrounding area, depending on traffic, plowing and sun. Lots that get plowed hard lose lines fastest, because the blade takes the paint with the snow. If your accessible stalls are hard to read from a car, it's due.
Do you handle ADA compliance?
We mark accessible stalls, access aisles and symbols to the required dimensions and can advise on stall counts and signage. We're a paving contractor rather than a compliance consultant, so for a formal audit you want a specialist, but for getting the markings right we do this constantly.
Should we seal before striping?
Yes, and in that order, at the same visit. Sealer covers existing lines, so striping first wastes the paint. Doing both together also costs less than two separate visits.
Can you do stencils, numbers and custom legends?
Yes. Arrows, fire lane markings, no parking, loading zones, reserved stall numbers, crosswalks and custom text.
Do you stripe anything other than parking lots?
Yes. We stripe running tracks and sports courts, which is measured layout work at a different level of precision. It's on our athletic surfaces page.

The Lots and Surfaces in Oakdale

Oakdale is an east metro suburb of St. Paul in Washington County, about 30,000 people and roughly 79 miles west of Eau Claire, nearly all of it I-94. The city is boxed in by highway: I-94 along the south, I-694 along the north, Highway 120 on the west and Highway 36 across the middle.

There's no single business park here; the commercial ground is spread along those highways. Oakdale Village on 3rd Street North is three retail buildings with a pad-ready parcel still open, sitting next to the big boxes at Inwood Avenue and Radio Drive. Fleet Farm is on Hadley Avenue between Highway 36 and I-694, and Cub is at Bergen Plaza on 10th Street North in the southeast corner. Slumberland Furniture's headquarters is here, on the campus the old Imation world headquarters left behind, and there's a clinic in the Tessar building on Helmo Avenue.

The other big lots belong to the city and the county. City Hall and the police station on Hadley Avenue are being remodeled and expanded, with services working out of Public Works on Granada Avenue while that runs. The new public works building on Granada is 75,300 square feet on nine acres, with 40,000 square feet of fleet storage, salt storage and a fuel island. Washington County's Oakdale Library is on Heron Avenue and Tartan Senior High is on Greenway Avenue. Close to 200,000 square feet of new industrial space is in the works.
