Parking garage coatings and striping in Miami-Dade
A garage repaint cannot close the garage. Residents, tenants and hotel guests still need to park, so the work moves level by level and section by section with temporary striping and signs.

In unincorporated Miami-Dade, resurfacing, re-striping or seal coating a parking lot needs a Zoning Improvement Permit. Cities set their own rules. Romco confirms the requirement for the address before the layout is repainted.
Garage decks take water, oil and tire wear. A coating over concrete that has cracked or spalled will not last, so any concrete repair is scoped and finished before coating starts, by a firm that does that work.
Washing a garage deck produces dirty water. County code bans discharging polluting matter into county waters, and the county and Hialeah ban non-stormwater discharges to drains, so wash water is collected rather than sent down the deck drains.
Order of work
- Survey each level and record the existing stall layout
- Confirm any zoning permit needed for re-striping
- Plan closed sections and post notices
- Clean decks and collect wash water
- Coordinate concrete repair, then coat walls, columns and decks
- Restripe, reopen each section and walk it with the owner
What usually goes wrong
Where this kind of job slips in Miami-Dade, and the control
Spaces lost for too long
Closing a whole level for days frustrates everyone. Romco sizes each closed section to the parking the owner can spare and posts the schedule ahead.
Coating over bad concrete
Coating hides cracks for a short while. Repairs come first, scoped with the repair contractor so the coating goes on sound concrete.
Layout changes without approval
Moving stalls or changing striping can trigger zoning review. Romco checks before restriping anything other than a like-for-like layout.
Outside scope
Structural concrete repair, expansion joints, drainage changes and lighting are separate trades. Romco coordinates them and does not redesign stall layouts.
Questions
About parking garage coatings and striping
Does re-striping a Miami-Dade parking lot need a permit?
In unincorporated Miami-Dade, yes: a Zoning Improvement Permit covers resurfacing, re-striping and seal coating. Inside a city, its own rules apply.
Do drivers keep parking while the decks are coated?
Yes, in parts. Romco closes one section at a time, with temporary signs and access routes agreed with the owner.
What does a commercial repaint cost?
It depends on surface area, height, access, the condition of the substrate and the rules at the address. A coastal tower on swing stages and a one-story strip center inland are different jobs. Romco walks the building, writes the scope down and quotes that scope. No figures appear on this site because a number given before the walk would not hold.
What size of building will Romco quote?
Any size. A single storefront bay, a full office floor, a Doral distribution warehouse or a coastal condo tower all get the same process: a site walk, a jurisdiction check and a written scope.
Is Romco licensed?
Romco Builders is a licensed Florida general contractor, headquartered in Fort Lauderdale. It manages painting as part of that work.
How Romco runs it
The same six stages, every job
Site walk and jurisdiction check
Romco walks the building, measures the surfaces and confirms whether the county or a city building official governs the folio.
Approvals and colors
Any color board, historic review, zoning permit or roof-coating permit the address needs is filed before materials are ordered.
Phasing and protection
Work is split around open tenants, residents and traffic. Floors, glazing, landscaping and storm drains are protected before prep starts.
Surface prep
Cleaning, scraping, patching and priming, with wash water kept out of storm drains as county and city rules require.
Coating application
Coats go on in the order the system calls for, with exterior work timed around rainy-season weather.
Punch list and turnover
Romco walks the finished work with the owner or manager, fixes the punch items and hands over the color and product schedule.
Parking garage coatings and striping throughout Miami-Dade, including Miami, Miami Beach, Hialeah, Coral Gables, Doral, Homestead, Miami Gardens, North Miami, North Miami Beach, Aventura, and every other Miami-Dade city.
