Web Accessibility (WCAG) Compliance
Sites usable by keyboard, screen reader and everyone else.
Accessibility work makes a site usable by people who do not use a mouse or cannot see the screen, and it is increasingly a legal requirement. We audit against WCAG, fix the issues in code, and document what changed and what remains.

Questions
Web Accessibility (WCAG) Compliance, answered
Does fixing accessibility change how the site looks?
Rarely by much. Most fixes are invisible: correct markup, focus behaviour, labels and contrast adjustments. Where a design genuinely fails a criterion, a low-contrast button, a tiny tap target, the change is usually an improvement for every visitor.
Can an automated tool find everything?
No, and it matters to be honest about that. Automated tools reliably catch a portion of issues; the rest need a person using a keyboard and a screen reader. We run both and report them separately so you know which finding came from which.
