Website Accessibility & Compliance Support
Your website should be easy to use for as many people as possible. That means clear navigation, readable content, accessible forms, descriptive images, strong contrast, proper structure, and a better experience across devices and assistive technologies.
Masthead Technology helps construction companies, contractors, developers, engineers, and related businesses improve website accessibility and address compliance-focused website concerns. We focus on practical improvements that make your site easier to use, easier to manage, and better aligned with modern accessibility best practices.
Accessibility Is Part of a Better Website Experience
Website accessibility is not just a technical checklist. It is part of building a better, more usable website for every visitor.
For construction companies and project-driven businesses, your website may be used by potential clients, property owners, developers, municipalities, job applicants, vendors, and internal team members. If your site is difficult to navigate, hard to read, or frustrating to use, it can create unnecessary barriers and missed opportunities.
We help identify and improve accessibility-related issues across page structure, content, design, forms, images, navigation, and general usability.
Practical Improvements for Usability, Structure & Compliance
Page Structure & Headings
Clear heading structure helps visitors and assistive technologies understand how content is organized. We review and improve heading hierarchy, page layout, section structure, and content flow.
Navigation & User Experience
Users should be able to move through your website clearly and predictably. We review menus, buttons, links, calls to action, focus states, and general navigation patterns.
Color Contrast & Readability
Text should be easy to read across devices and screen sizes. We evaluate contrast, font sizing, spacing, button visibility, and overall readability.
Forms & Calls to Action
Contact forms, job applications, quote requests, and newsletter forms should be easy to understand and complete. We improve labels, field structure, error handling, confirmation messages, and usability.
Image Alt Text
Project photos, team images, logos, and other visual assets should include appropriate descriptive text where needed. This supports accessibility and can also provide better context for search engines.
Technical & Content Review
We review key pages for common accessibility concerns, including missing labels, skipped heading levels, unclear links, non-descriptive buttons, layout issues, and content that may be difficult to understand or navigate.

Accessibility Tools Are Helpful, But Not a Complete Legal Strategy
Website accessibility is an ongoing process, not a one-time checkbox. Standards, tools, content, plugins, and legal expectations can change over time.
Masthead can help improve accessibility, address common website issues, and implement accessibility solutions such as UserWay, accessiBe, and other third-party platforms when appropriate. These tools can support accessibility efforts through features such as automated remediation, accessibility widgets, monitoring, reports, accessibility statements, documentation, and vendor-provided support options.
Some accessibility platforms may offer additional plan benefits, such as compliance reporting, litigation support, expert review, or financial pledges. Those benefits are provided by the third-party vendor and are subject to that vendor’s plan, terms, limitations, and eligibility requirements.
Masthead does not provide legal advice or independently guarantee that a website is fully compliant with every applicable law, regulation, or accessibility standard. Our role is to help clients make practical accessibility improvements, implement appropriate tools, and build a stronger, more usable website foundation.
For organizations with formal legal or regulatory requirements, we recommend pairing technical accessibility improvements with appropriate legal guidance.

Website Accessibility & Compliance FAQs
What is website accessibility?
Website accessibility means making a website easier to use for people with a wide range of abilities, devices, and browsing needs. This can include improvements to structure, navigation, readability, forms, image descriptions, keyboard access, and compatibility with assistive technologies.
Can Masthead make our website ADA compliant?
Masthead can help improve accessibility and address common compliance-focused website concerns, but we do not provide legal advice or guarantee ADA compliance. Accessibility is an ongoing process, and legal requirements can vary based on the organization and situation.
What accessibility issues do you commonly fix?
Common improvements include heading structure, color contrast, link text, button labels, form labels, form errors, image alt text, keyboard navigation issues, readability, mobile usability, and general page structure.
Do accessibility improvements help SEO?

Do you use accessibility overlays?
We can help evaluate third-party accessibility tools when appropriate, but we do not treat overlays as a substitute for strong website structure, accessible content, clear navigation, and proper development practices.
Can accessibility be included in a website redesign?
Yes. Accessibility is best considered during the planning, design, development, and content process. Masthead can include accessibility best practices as part of a new website build or redesign.
