Line marking services in Geelong
A local crew with a highway fleet.
Most line marking companies in Geelong are set up for car parks and factory floors. We do those, but the fleet is built for road linemarking at network scale — truck-mounted marking vehicles, attenuators for live traffic, and airless machines, all owned and run by us.
The workshop is at 17–21 Grayling Street, Belmont, Victoria 3216, which is why Geelong jobs get local response times with full-scale equipment behind them.

Matching the crew to the job
A small crew, or a road network.
For a car park or a factory floor, a two-truck operator is the right call and will beat us on price. This is what changes once the job is a road — live traffic, a standard to meet, and paperwork a council has to file.
| What changes | A small crew | Southern Highway |
|---|---|---|
| Typical job | Car parks, factory floors, single sites | Whole road networks, freeway carriageways, subdivisions and major construction projects |
| Crew and plant | A truck or two | 25 team members and 70+ items of plant, all owned and run by us |
| Live traffic | Usually needs a traffic control subcontractor | In-house traffic management, and truck-mounted attenuators for working in live traffic |
| Materials | Paint | Paint, thermoplastic, cold-applied plastic, raised pavement markers and audio tactile |
| The work around the marking | Marking only | Grinding, signage, street sweeping and crack sealing under the one contract |
| Urgent work | As the schedule allows | Same-day turnaround where it is urgent, from depots across South West Victoria |
| Public works cover | Varies | $20M liability, WorkCover, fleet insurance and a Fair Jobs Code pre-assessment |
| Standard and records | Varies | AS 1742, checked on completion and captured on job sheets we keep |

Line marking Geelong — questions
What people ask before they call.
The questions that come up on a Geelong quote call, answered here so you do not have to ask them.
Do you do line marking in Geelong?
Yes. Our workshop is at 17–21 Grayling Street, Belmont, so Geelong is our home patch — from the Ring Road at Lovely Banks through to Waurn Ponds, Corio, Lara, Armstrong Creek, the Bellarine and the Surf Coast.
How quickly can you get to a Geelong job?
We run multiple depots across South West Victoria with 25 crew and 70+ items of plant, and we can turn around same day where the work is urgent — a safety audit finding, or marking that has been deemed a risk to road users.
Do you mark car parks as well as roads?
Yes. Alongside highway and network line marking we do ongoing maintenance and tailored marking for large civil projects, municipal car parks and access roads.
Can you work at night or in live traffic?
Yes. Jobs are booked day or night to suit the road and the traffic it carries. We run truck-mounted attenuators for safe operation in live traffic, and traffic management is in-house, so the works and the controls come from one supplier.
What standard is the line marking done to?
All work is carried out to AS 1742, checked on completion and captured on the job sheets we keep for the record.
Can you remove old line marking too?
Yes. We run heavy-duty grinding to remove obsolete line marking and prep the surface for the next treatment, with minimal pavement disruption.
