Accessibility Statement
Our goal is that every visitor—regardless of ability, device, or connection—can use this website fully. Last reviewed: September 28, 2026.
Our target
We build and evaluate this site against WCAG 2.2 level A and AA criteria. The site is built with semantic HTML, real text (no text baked into images where real text works), a system font stack, no JavaScript required to read any page, and a single lightweight stylesheet. Images carry descriptive alternative text; decorative images are marked as such. Color contrast targets the AA minimum of 4.5:1 for body text, and buttons and links target at least a 44-pixel touch area.
How we evaluated this site
- Automated checks across all public pages (W3C Nu HTML validation; automated accessibility checks), with findings resolved or documented.
- Manual keyboard testing: full navigation, form completion, and menu operation with keyboard only, checking focus order and visible focus states.
- Screen reader review of the primary flows (home, a service page, a town page, and the contact form) with a non-visual reading order check.
- Reflow testing at 320 CSS pixels and 200% text zoom, and layout checks at common phone, tablet, and desktop widths.
Evaluation date: September 28, 2026, on the deployed site. We re-test after significant changes and update this statement when the scope of review changes.
Known limitations, honestly stated
- Automated and manual testing covers a lot; it is not a complete audit of every possible assistive-technology combination. We would rather say that than claim a “100%” that implies more certainty than testing can give.
- Conformance here means conformance with the WCAG criteria we tested against, at the evaluation date. It is not a certification and not a guarantee of ADA compliance.
- Third-party content we don't control (for example, a video embedded from another platform) may have accessibility behavior we can't fully govern.
This site currently does not embed third-party video, feeds, or chat widgets, which keeps that limitation largely theoretical for now.
