We get calls from time to time for apartment complex parking lot striping. Yes we do. We stripe and re-stripe most any type of business or entity. We stripe on asphalt and on concrete surfaces.
Striping Apartment complexes is a little different than regular parking lots. They are usually more closed in and require an extra amount of planning and logistical consideration. Usually cars have to be moved in stages and tenants need to be notified in advance so that they are fully aware of their responsibility to help the process move along as smoothly as possible.
Moyers Contracting will work hard to make sure the process is as smooth as possible with the least amount of disruption. Our experience and expertise will stand out and you will be pleased with the result.

We cover the entire valley and state. Gilbert, Tempe, Mesa, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, Phoenix, Chandler, Peoria, Surprise, Goodyear and Glendale and most points in between. ADA compliant parking and handicap sign for parking lot.
Concrete filled pipe bollards also known as steel pipe bollards are used for many applications (these are different than concrete bollards). In the parking lot maintenance industry, they are used almost exclusively for protection. They can protect walls, handicap signs, gas tanks, propane tanks, water valves, and ATM machines. We have installed them for all of these applications. We can also do plastic bollard covers.
Many times we will put a sign post in the bollard to protect the sign; mostly a handicap sign, from getting run over or damaged.
Once a bollard is put in, there are some finishing steps to complete. These steps are some of the reasons why we think we stand out from others.
The pipe must be installed deep enough (3′) and enough concrete must be used to keep the pipe solid for years if not decades.
To finish a pipe bollard it has to be filled with concrete and neatly and cleanly rounded off.
The concrete at the base (if it is installed in an existing concrete slab) must be neatly finished.
There can be no spilled concrete on the outside of the pipe. (many will spill it and try to paint over it.)
The pipe has to be painted safety yellow and there can be no overspray on the existing surface.
These are pictures of a recently completed job that had forty barricade panels. The ones shown are the Type A, which are sometimes called the three board barricades. We also do the Type B, which are the one board barricades. In this case, the barricades were used to create a barrier for an undeveloped cul-de-sac that leads to farm land. Barricades are used at the end of roadways to warn traffic that it is not a through street. Often times you will see the warning barricade where a driveway opening leads to future development.
Our barricades are made per the MAG (Maricopa Association of Governments) specification. They are painted with reflective paint and have the diagonal red and white stripes. Be careful, some contractors will paint them without the reflective paint. Where each cross board attaches to the post, they have to have two lag bolts. Be careful, some will put just one.
As you can see by the pictures below, these are straight and plumb. They are clean and spaced properly. We have the experience to get your next safety barricade job done in the Greater Phoenix and surrounding areas. That includes Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, Tempe and all of Maricopa County. Moyers Contracting covers the entire State of Arizona. Give us a call and we will work hard for you.
Parking lot stencils can come in all shapes and sizes.

If you need stencils in your parking lot or at your home give us a call and we can begin working on your project.
. At first thought, many people think that stencils are just 3″ to 4″ tall on a curb denoting a certain parking spot for the manager or they can simply say “Reserved.” However, stencils can come in all shapes and sizes. In the last twenty two years, Moyers Contracting has done stencils of all shapes and sizes ranging from 4″ “fire lane no parking” stencils to 8′ tall “stop” stencils. We have done 8′ “loading” stencils and 2′ “stop” stencils. Recently. we did some stecils in the Dunkin’ Doughnut parking lot. We have stenciled names, titles and numbers. We have stencils “Starbucks Parking Only” and “Reserved for Vice President.” Also, the painted square in handicap parking stalls is called a “handicap stencil.”
Moyers Contracting makes concrete splash blocks in our yard and we usually have 10-12 in stock for pickup. We can make most any number you need with in reason if we have plenty of notice since we only pour a few at a time.
There are two sizes of concrete splash blocks; the large which are about 24″x 24″ and the small which are about 12″x 24″. The small ones are manageable but the large ones are quite heavy. It is recommended that two people lift these. If your job requires concrete splash blocks or you want to have a stock pile of them, give us a call and we can talk about your needs.
Recently we were hired to do some striping and stenciling at a Dunkin’ Doughnuts in Phoenix. What an interesting job this was. The striping part was normal white and yellow. The “America Runs on Dunkin’ ” stencil was an interesting change from the norm. We don’t just “eyeball” it when placing stencils, we chalk a line and make sure that everything is lined up properly. We think it turned out great and is quite a marketing angle. If Dunkin’ likes the way this looks, we are going to be adding them to more locations in the near future. This stencil will do two obvious things as we see it; first you know where the drive thru lane starts and second you are reminded why you are there. Why are you there? Because America Runs on Dunkin’. Or is it that Arizona Runs on Dunkin’? That seems to be the case lately since so many are opening up everywhere. Just like this stencil, if you need other stencils or striping, or any parking lot maintenance, please give us a call.
The Gilbert Fire Department has been visiting every business in Gilbert making sure that they are complying with all of the city fire codes. One of the violations that many businesses have is that their painted red fire lane curb has faded and needs to be re-painted. That is one of the services that Moyers Contracting provides. Our operators take great pride in making sure that your painted red curb is done to perfection. We tape off the edges and lay down roofing felt when needed to catch the overspray. This gives the clean crisp look that we are known for. If the painted red fire lane curb item is marked on your check list, please give us a call and we will come out and measure what is needed and give you a price to do the work. We are in Gilbert, so we can look at it and schedule it in a timely manner. We also do fire lane signs, and other fire department related signs. Give us a call or recommend us to your neighbor.
We also paint red curb in Chandler, and re-paint fire lane curb in Mesa, and if the fire department requires that you have red curb painting or fire lane signs in Phoenix, we can do it there too. Moyers Contracting has the experience to do the job to your satisfaction.
Moyers Contracting has been manufacturing concrete parking stops for over twenty years. These are also called wheel stops, parking bumpers, bumpers, car stops, bumper blocks, concrete parking bumpers, and curb stops.
Whatever name you prefer to call them, they are the concrete stops that are found in parking stalls. We sell several varieties: the most common is the six-foot (long) curb (which is a MAG or Maricopa Association of Governments Spec), we carry four foot, three foot, and the very large truck curb. They vary in weight and size. The six-foot parking bumpers are about 200 pounds and the truck curb is about 800 pounds.
In addition to stopping cars, concrete parking stops can be used as a border for a decomposed granite parking lot or as a barrier to keep people from driving into a certain section of your property. We can install parking bumpers on asphalt, concrete, gravel, or decomposed granite.
Moyers Contracting is the original source for concrete parking stops because we make them, transport them and install them. We can install parking bumpers on a job-by-job basis or we can deliver a load of 40 so that they can be used by you as needed and when needed.
If you need parking lot concrete stops in Gilbert, Phoenix, or anywhere in the state of Arizona, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
In addition to having concrete parking stops for sale, and parking lot concrete stops near me, we also do all types of parking lot maintenance including parking lot striping, signs, stencils, barricades, red fire lane curb painting, fire lane signs, and custom welding and fabrication.
What are Concrete Parking Stops
Concrete parking stops are the little concrete columns you see at the ends of parking spaces. They’re typically white, and they look like this:
They don’t seem to serve any purpose beyond decoration, but in reality, they’re vital for keeping you safe. If a car were to try to pull into a space that has a concrete parking stop on either side, it would get stuck in the middle due to the way that parking stops are built.
There’s a narrow space where two cars can fit side by side, but since one of them is missing its parking stop on one side, it would get stuck trying to squeeze through. This is obviously very unsafe for anyone who’s behind the wheel of one of those cars.
As such, whenever you’re driving around and you’re looking for a spot to park your car, make sure that there are no concrete parking stops on either side of the space you choose to pull into.
You might think that it makes sense to park so that your vehicle isn’t blocking anyone’s driveway or entranceway—in fact, if there are some parked cars nearby and their drivers aren’t paying attention, it can be easy to accidentally block their path out—but what you’ll find is that doing this will almost always mean that there will
Concrete parking stops are concrete blocks that are used to prevent cars from parking too close to the ends of a parking lot line. Parking too close to the ends can make it difficult for emergency vehicles to enter and exit the lot, and can even cause accidents if someone tries to park there. Parking stops are used in parking lots so that drivers know where they should stop.
Concrete Parking Stop Uses
A concrete parking stop is a fixture that’s part of the curb used to mark off a section of parking space. These are painted orange and are present in most major cities’ residential areas.
The purpose it serves is to avoid confusion over which parking spaces are available for use, but also to avoid traffic accidents by clearly defining the boundaries of each spot. Parking stops are essential for drivers and pedestrians alike to ensure safety in these heavily-trafficked areas, and they can sometimes be an important factor in damage control if an accident does occur.
Parking stops are also one of the most affordable ways to protect your property against damage caused by cars. If your car has been damaged by another driver’s vehicle, it might be covered under your insurance policy, but it can be difficult to prove fault in collisions involving multiple parties.
The presence of a parking stop can make that process much easier. If there’s no sign demarcating the boundary of where your property ends, there’s no way for insurance companies to tell whose fault it is—even if you have footage from a security camera showing the other person’s car driving over your lawn or hitting a fence post, it’s still up for interpretation. Even if there is a concrete parking stop at the edge
Parking stops are a common sight in the city. Small concrete pillars with flat tops and small bumpers attached to either side of their base, they’re designed to prevent cars from encroaching on areas designated for pedestrian use.
The bumpers act as bollards: when hit hard enough, they will pop off. The rest of the stop will remain in place, marking an area that should not be driven on by any vehicle larger than its bumper is tall–1 meter (39 inches).
