Lincoln is Selwyn's university and research hub. Lincoln University, AgResearch, Plant & Food Research, and Landcare Research sit alongside a fast-growing residential town with new subdivisions rolling north toward Prebbleton and Rolleston. Campus car parks, lab and research-facility floor marking, village retail, and subdivision road marking all feed steady work on car park line marking, warehouse floors, and private-road marking.
We partner with one line marking company per region, and Lincoln enquiries route to the Canterbury crew that already covers Lincoln University staff and student lots, the AgResearch and Plant and Food campuses, and Gerald Street village retail. Nor'wester wind and winter frost across the Selwyn plains both shape our spray windows around the forecast.

Six core service categories, covering everything from a single disabled bay re-mark to a full warehouse floor roll-out. Each category has its own paint chemistry, its own compliance rules, and its own typical Lincoln applications. Click into a category to read the detail, the common local jobs, and the questions Lincoln customers ask most.
01 · Commercial
Car park line marking is constant in Lincoln. Lincoln University campus lots, AgResearch and the research-institute campus, Gerald Street village retail, supermarkets, medical centres, and new subdivision commercial blocks all need regular refreshes or greenfield layouts.
What’s included
Typical Lincoln jobs
Lincoln car parks FAQ
Most 30 to 50 bay car parks across Lincoln University campus lots, Gerald Street retail, and new subdivision commercial blocks are re-marked overnight. The lot is traffic-ready within 2 to 3 hours of the final coat, so staff and village visitors find the bays open as usual.
We usually programme larger Lincoln University and AgResearch campus work into the summer and mid-year semester breaks so lectures, field trips, and research access are not disrupted. When a re-mark cannot wait for the next break, we stage partial closures by car park zone and complete the work over a weekend.
02 · Civil
Lincoln road marking covers SH75, township arterials, and new subdivision roads pushing north toward Prebbleton and Rolleston. Campus access roads, rural lifestyle-block private roads, and cycleways all sit in the regular rotation.
What’s included
Typical Lincoln jobs
Lincoln roads FAQ
Yes. We coordinate with Selwyn DC on timing and traffic management for private roads being vested across new Lincoln subdivisions pushing north toward Prebbleton, plus research-campus access roads where the council needs sign-off. The process is a familiar one for our Canterbury crew.
Paint is the right price point for 2 to 4 years on lightly trafficked Selwyn subdivision streets and rural lifestyle-block private roads. Thermoplastic is the call for 5 to 10 years on busier stretches like SH75 through Lincoln and campus access roads where bus and truck volumes are heavier.
03 · Industrial
Lincoln's research campuses run labs, workshops, glasshouses, and storage sheds that all need durable floor marking. Epoxy handles standard wear, MMA handles heavier research-workshop and trade-merchant yards around the town edge.
What’s included
Typical Lincoln jobs
Lincoln warehouses FAQ
Yes. Weekend and semester-break windows are the norm for Lincoln University, AgResearch, and Plant & Food Research floor jobs, and we stage the work in zones so one workshop stays operational while the rest cures. Forklift and trolley traffic can return within hours.
MMA cold plastic is the call for heavy-traffic Lincoln agricultural workshops and research yards where tractors and quads run over the floor. Epoxy is the better fit for standard lab zones, glasshouse corridors, and light trade-supply depots across Selwyn.
04 · Recreation
Lincoln University sports facilities, Lincoln Events Centre, school courts, and community club courts all run regular court-marking cycles, with multi-sport overlays a common ask. Pickleball on existing tennis courts, basketball keys on multi-use courts, and full netball re-lines at Prebbleton and Springston schools are all standard work for the Canterbury crew.
What’s included
Typical Lincoln jobs
Lincoln sports courts FAQ
Yes. Pickleball overlays on Lincoln University tennis courts and surrounding school courts are a regular request, laid in contrasting colours so both sports stay playable without confusion. A standard tennis court fits two or four pickleball courts depending on the layout.
Typically within 24 hours of the final coat curing, subject to Selwyn weather and overnight temperatures. We aim to lay the last application on a dry late afternoon so the acrylic sets overnight and Lincoln Events Centre and school courts are playable the next morning.
05 · Education
Lincoln primary and intermediate schools refresh their playground markings every few years, and the surrounding rural schools out through Springston, Tai Tapu, and Ellesmere come through the same rotation. With the town growing fast around Lincoln University, new-build schools also come online regularly needing first-time hopscotch grids, number boards, and NZ map marking.
What’s included
Typical Lincoln jobs
Lincoln schools FAQ
Both work. Smaller jobs like a four-square refresh or number-grid touch-up can be done in a weekend or after hours, and larger Lincoln and Prebbleton playground roll-outs are scheduled into mid-term breaks or the summer holidays so classes are not disrupted.
Yes. Playground thermoplastic is the same material used on pedestrian crossings through Gerald Street and the Lincoln University campus loop, with better grip than paint on frosty Canterbury mornings. It is UV-stable, non-toxic once cured, and widely used across NZ primaries.
06 · Specialist
Line removal, research-facility anti-slip, agricultural workshop cold plastic, helipad marking for rural rescue pads, and heavy-vehicle yard work for Lincoln's rural-service operators. Lincoln University campus workshops, AgResearch and Plant and Food labs, and the trade-merchant yards feeding the surrounding Selwyn lifestyle blocks make up the regular specialist rotation.
What’s included
Typical Lincoln jobs
Lincoln specialist FAQ
Yes. Shot-blasting and grinding lift old paint and thermoplastic cleanly without tearing up the asphalt or research-floor concrete underneath, which matters on Lincoln University campus lots and AgResearch building aprons where the seal is often still fresh. Chemical strippers handle delicate surfaces.
One overnight shift is usually enough for a typical 40-bay re-mark, covering most Gerald Street retail or Lincoln University staff car parks. We grind off the old lines first, then spray the corrected layout so the site opens for business as usual the next morning.

Lincoln prices sit in line with the greater Christchurch metro. A 30-bay Gerald Street village or Lincoln University staff-lot re-mark generally runs $1,500 to $3,500 plus GST, with larger research-campus and subdivision road work quoted by the square metre after a site visit.
Yes. Lincoln, Prebbleton, Rolleston, Springston, Tai Tapu, Ellesmere, and the rural lifestyle and research belt across Selwyn all sit inside our regular Canterbury coverage. Jobs outside the main townships are typically bundled with nearby work to keep travel costs reasonable.
No. Overnight and weekend work is standard at no extra charge for most retail and warehouse jobs across Selwyn, and it is often the smart way to book a Gerald Street cafe car park or Lincoln University staff lot so trading and campus activity are not disrupted.
Usually within the week for small to mid-size Selwyn jobs like a village retail re-mark, research-campus staff lot, or primary school touch-up. Larger Lincoln University floor roll-outs or new subdivision road marking toward Prebbleton are typically 2 to 3 weeks out.
