Frequently Asked Questions
What do different curb colors mean in St. Louis?
Red curbs indicate fire lanes (no parking/stopping). Yellow curbs mark loading zones (limited time loading only). White curbs designate passenger loading. Blue curbs are reserved for handicap access. We paint all colors to local specifications.
How long does curb paint last in Missouri weather?
Quality curb paint typically lasts 12-24 months in Missouri's climate. High-traffic areas and those exposed to snow plows may need annual repainting. We use commercial-grade, UV-resistant paint for maximum durability.
Can you create custom loading zones for my business?
Yes, we design custom loading zone layouts to meet your operational needs while complying with local codes. This includes time-restricted zones, customer pickup areas, and delivery truck spaces.
Do you need permits for curb painting?
Permit requirements vary by municipality in the St. Louis metro area. Painting on private property typically doesn't require permits, but public right-of-way work may. We can advise on requirements for your specific location.
How do I designate reserved parking spaces with curb paint?
Reserved spaces can be marked with curb paint, stenciled text ('RESERVED', 'VISITOR', 'EMPLOYEE'), and numbered designations. We also install signs for additional visibility. Color coding helps differentiate space types.
What's the difference between curb painting and striping?
Curb painting applies solid color to the curb face (red, yellow, white, blue) to designate zone types. Striping refers to painted lines on the pavement surface for parking spaces, lanes, and directional markings. Most lots need both.
