Working in Spooner

The hospital on Chandler Drive and the schools are the public lots, and public lots mean ADA stalls and access aisles at the federal dimensions and fire lanes marked. A restripe goes on after the sealer has cured, and a layout gets measured and chalked before any paint goes down.

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 Spooner

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 Spooner

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 Spooner

What Spooner calls us about, answered straight.

More questions answered
How far north do you go?
Spooner is the top of it: about an hour and a half up Highway 53, for commercial lots. 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 Spooner 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 Spooner

Spooner is the top of the road for us, about an hour and a half north of Eau Claire on Highway 53, a city of about 2,500 that calls itself the Crossroads of the North because 53, 63, 70 and 253 all meet here. It's the largest city in Washburn County, though the county seat is Shell Lake.

The commercial lots here are the hospital, the schools, the downtown and the industrial sites off the highways. Spooner Health is on Chandler Drive. The school district has its elementary, middle and high schools all in the city, and the high school on Highway 70 is a 163,000 square foot building whose track hosts the Heart O' North conference championships. Downtown runs along Walnut Street and River Street, and the state's largest cool-water fish hatchery, on West Maple Street, brings visitors year-round.

The city's development districts hold a machine shop, a warehouse built for Frito-Lay, a 24,000 square foot office and manufacturing building and an auto dealer, and the city has bought another 27 acres between Highway 53 and Highway 63 for what comes next.
