Overview

Professional Car Park Marking Across the UK

A well-marked car park improves safety, maximises capacity, and creates a positive first impression for visitors. Markex provides professional car park line marking for retail parks, hospitals, offices, schools, leisure centres, and private car parks across the UK.

We mark standard bays, disabled bays, parent and child bays, electric vehicle charging bays, directional arrows, give way markings, pedestrian crossings, and speed humps. Disabled and accessible bay markings follow BS 8300 guidance on dimensions and layout, and all line widths follow current UK practice.

We work around your operational hours — including overnight and weekend shifts — to ensure your car park remains open and functional throughout the project. A fixed-price quote is provided within 24 hours of site survey, with no hidden costs.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How many bays can you fit in my car park?
This depends on your car park dimensions and layout. We carry out a free site survey and produce a bay layout plan to maximise capacity while meeting current standards. Standard UK car park bays are typically 2.4 m wide by 4.8 m long, with wider dimensions required for disabled bays under BS 8300 guidance.
Do you mark disabled bays?
Yes. We mark disabled bays following BS 8300 guidance on dimensions, hatching, and the wheelchair symbol. We can advise on the recommended number of accessible spaces for your car park size.
Can you mark electric vehicle charging bays?
Yes. We mark EV charging bays with the appropriate bay outline, EV symbol, and directional signage to guide drivers to charging points. We can incorporate EV bays into a new layout or add them to an existing marked car park.
Can you work overnight to avoid disrupting my business?
Yes. We regularly carry out overnight and weekend car park marking to minimise disruption to businesses, hospitals, retail parks, and other sites that need to remain operational.
How long do car park markings last?
Thermoplastic markings typically last 5–10 years in a car park environment. Road-grade paint lasts 2–5 years. We recommend thermoplastic for high-traffic car parks and sites where longevity is a priority.
Do you remove old markings before applying new ones?
Yes. We can remove old markings by shot blasting or scarifying before applying new ones. This ensures a clean, professional finish and prevents old bay lines from showing through.
