Meet the Owner: Joe Bassin – JB Parking Lot Striping
With over 40 years in the commercial painting industry, and specifically 18 years of experience in the parking lot striping industry, Joe brings a blend of precision, dedication, and passion to every project. His journey began when he teamed up with a friend to do line striping part-time and it didn’t take long for him to realize he had found his calling. Fueled by an entrepreneurial spirit, he went on to launch JB Parking Lot Striping, which has since grown into a trusted name in the region.
Over the years, Joe has proudly worked on a variety of standout projects, but a few favorites hold a special place in his heart - like painting the helipad at Franklin Square Hospital and the annual parking lot work at the Ravens Training Facility. As a lifelong Ravens and Orioles fan, being part of the facilities that support local sports is a dream come true.
Outside of work, Joe is a proud father to two incredible daughters, Danika (22) and Ciara (18). His greatest achievement has been raising them into the smart, independent women they are today. Soon, he’ll be stepping into a new role - first-time grandfather as Danika is expecting her first child. Family is everything to him, and he cherishes spending time with his beautiful wife, Dawn, whether they’re taking spontaneous day trips or simply relaxing at home together.
When he’s not striping lots or cheering on his favorite teams (Ravens, Orioles, and Seattle Seahawks), Joe enjoys firing up the grill - especially for a perfectly cooked steak, and of course, being a Maryland native, a big Maryland crab feast is always on his mind. He’s also a passionate dog lover, sharing his home with four dogs: Raven the Black Lab, Luke the German Shepherd, Ducati the Dutch Shepherd, and Harley the Belgian Malinois. In fact, he and Dawn even drove all the way to New Orleans to bring Ducati and Harley to their forever home.
If you’re looking for a fun fact, here’s one: Joe was once a member of a NASCAR pit crew — talk about fast-paced experience! His personal hero? Cal Ripken Jr. - a symbol of consistency and hard work. Much like Ripken’s legendary streak, Joe believes in showing up every day, working hard, and trusting that success will follow.
At JB Parking Lot Striping, our core values drive the team to deliver outstanding work, every time.
