Plaza, office and warehouse striping on both sides of Yonge Street, from our Markham office
Parking lot line painting in Thornhill keeps busy plaza and office lots safe, compliant and easy to use. Thornhill has some of the most crowded commercial lots in York Region: the plazas along Yonge Street between Steeles and Highway 7, the shopping centres at Centre Street and Bathurst, and the neighbourhood plazas and medical buildings in between. When lines fade, drivers park badly, stalls are lost, and accessible stalls and fire routes stop being clear to anyone. Fresh, sharp lines fix all three.
Zusashi Maintenance has painted commercial lots since 2007. Our office is at 7030 Woodbine Ave in Markham, a short drive east along Steeles or Highway 7, so a walkthrough in Thornhill is easy to arrange. We re-stripe existing layouts, lay out new lots, and refresh badly faded lots that need re-measuring and chalking. We can also clean the lot first with parking lot pressure washing, because paint only lasts on a clean surface.
Thornhill is not a city of its own. Yonge Street splits it: the east side is part of the City of Markham and the west side is part of the City of Vaughan. That matters for fire routes and hydrant clearances, which follow the rules of whichever city your lot is in. We confirm that on the walkthrough and paint to the right one. Accessible stalls and access aisles follow Ontario's AODA and the Ontario Building Code on both sides of the street.
We stripe retail plazas along Yonge Street from Steeles up to Highway 7, the shopping centres and plazas around Centre Street and Bathurst Street, the plazas at John Street and Bayview Avenue, medical and office buildings along Yonge and Centre, and community and place-of-worship lots along Bathurst. On the Vaughan side we also paint plazas along Steeles Avenue West and Dufferin Street. Every job is scheduled around your opening hours.
Thornhill also has light-industrial pockets: east of Yonge near Steeles, on streets such as Glen Cameron Road and Doncaster Avenue, and on the Vaughan side along Clark Avenue West. Inside those buildings we paint aisle and walkway lines, forklift travel lanes, pedestrian crossings, racking and floor-storage zones, and loading-dock markings on sealed concrete. Clear floor lines separate people from forklifts and make a busy floor easier to run. The method is the same as on our warehouse line painting in Markham page, and the full service is on our warehouse line painting page.
If your layout works, we clean and paint directly over the old lines. That is the fastest and cheapest option. If the lot is changing use, badly worn or non-compliant, we re-measure and chalk a fresh layout and black out old lines that no longer apply, so drivers are not confused. Looking for cost ranges first? See our parking lot line painting cost guide.
Line painting is a warm-weather job. Traffic paint needs dry pavement and mild temperatures to bond and cure, so the season ends when the cold weather arrives and starts again once the pavement warms up in spring. Spring bookings fill early, because every property manager wants fresh lines after the winter plows and salt. If you want your lot done early in the season, book a walkthrough ahead of time so the quote is ready and you are on the list.
The number of stalls and the total length of line set the base. Accessible symbols, fire-route lettering, arrows and stencils are priced per item. A faded lot that has to be re-measured costs more than one where the old lines can be followed. You get a written quote after a free on-site walkthrough.
We walk the lot with you, count stalls, measure lines and check accessible stalls and fire routes. You get a written quote. We book a quiet window, usually an evening or weekend, clean, lay out and paint, then walk the finished lot with you. Choose a one-off job or a re-stripe every year or two, often paired with asphalt sealing for the longest-lasting lines.

Accessible stalls and fire routes marked to Ontario standards
In Thornhill, accessible parking and fire routes are governed by Ontario law — not US ADA rules. We mark accessible stalls and access aisles in line with Ontario's Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), the Integrated Accessibility Standards (Design of Public Spaces), and the Ontario Building Code, and we paint fire routes and hydrant clearances to the City of Markham or City of Vaughan's fire-route requirements. Type A van-accessible spaces are a minimum 3.4 m wide, Type B a minimum 2.4 m, with a shared access aisle at least 1.5 m wide and the International Symbol of Access.
Requirements depend on lot size and type, so we confirm the specifics for your property during the free assessment. If your current layout is non-compliant or unclear, we re-measure, chalk a corrected layout, and black out old markings before repainting — so drivers, tenants, and inspectors all see the same thing.
Clean pavement is essential for paint adhesion. Bundle pressure washing and striping in one Thornhill visit and save 10–15%.

Yes. Inside warehouses and units we paint aisle and walkway lines, forklift travel lanes, pedestrian crossings, racking and floor-storage zones and loading-dock markings on sealed concrete. The light-industrial streets east of Yonge near Steeles, such as Glen Cameron Road and Doncaster Avenue, are the usual Thornhill jobs.
Thornhill is split down Yonge Street. Lots east of Yonge are in the City of Markham and lots west of Yonge are in the City of Vaughan, so fire routes and hydrant clearances follow that city's requirements. We confirm which city your lot is in during the walkthrough. Accessible stalls follow Ontario's AODA and the Ontario Building Code either way.
Traffic paint needs dry pavement and mild temperatures, so line painting is a warm-weather job and the season ends when the cold weather arrives. Spring bookings fill early, so if you want your lot done early in the season, ask for a walkthrough and a quote ahead of time.
Traffic-grade waterborne paint is dry to the touch in 30–60 minutes and ready for traffic in 1–2 hours in dry, mild weather. We schedule Thornhill lots for evenings, early mornings or weekends so stalls are open before your business day.
Fresh lines last 1–3 years. Busy retail and medical lots along Yonge Street and Centre Street usually need re-striping every 12–18 months because of traffic, plowing and road salt. Quieter office lots can often go 2–3 years. Re-striping right after sealcoating gives the longest-lasting result.
Yes. Paint only bonds to a clean, dry surface, so we sweep or pressure wash the lot before striping. Many Thornhill clients book parking lot pressure washing and line painting together to refresh the lot in one visit.
We walk the lot with you, count the stalls, measure the lines, and check the accessible stalls, access aisles and fire routes against Ontario requirements and the City of Markham or City of Vaughan rules. Then we send a written quote that lists each marking and suggest an evening or weekend time when the lot is quiet.
