Overview

EverLine Coatings and Services offers professional line striping and pavement maintenance, addressing the needs of property owners and managers across North America. Founded in 2012 by John Evans, a former franchisee, the company began franchising in 2017 in Canada and expanded to the U.S. in 2022, growing to 325 open units by leveraging a fragmented $29 billion industry. EverLine provides a full suite of services—line striping, asphalt repair, sealcoating, crack-filling, and interior floor coatings through its EverFloor Durable Systems division—serving both commercial and residential clients with a focus on saving costs through its Preventative Pavement Maintenance Program.

Franchise owners operate a scalable, home-based business, managing 2-3 employees to start and delivering recurring services like custom stenciling and parking lot accessory installation. The model supports semi-absentee ownership, tapping into a market where pavement maintenance is essential—68% of shoppers in a 2017 study cited parking lot quality as a key factor in choosing retail centers. Backed by a leadership team with deep franchising experience, EverLine has earned a 9/10 franchisee rating as of September 2021, recognized by the International Franchise Association as a NextGen in Franchising winner in 2015 and an All-Star in 2020.

This franchise suits entrepreneurs eager to disrupt an unsophisticated industry with a branded, innovative approach. It thrives in diverse markets, offering B2B and B2C solutions with national account opportunities through EverLine Asset Management. With proprietary products like TBL Durables and cutting-edge technology, it positions owners to meet the growing demand for reliable pavement care in a recession-resistant sector.
