Website Accessibility

Accessibility fixed in the code itself.

An overlay widget changes what an automated scanner sees. It does not change the markup a screen reader actually reads. We test your site the way disabled visitors meet it, then fix the templates, components and content that cause the barriers.

In short

Website accessibility means people using screen readers, keyboards, magnification or captions can use your site. The working standard is WCAG 2.1 or 2.2 Level AA. In the US, businesses are sued under ADA Title III over inaccessible sites; in Ontario, the AODA requires WCAG 2.0 AA for organizations with 50 or more employees. FIMM audits your site by hand and with automated tools, fixes the code itself and monitors new releases. We never install overlays. Audits start at $999.

What we build

What we build.

A

Manual WCAG audit

We test key pages and flows with a keyboard and with screen readers such as NVDA and VoiceOver, against WCAG 2.1 or 2.2 AA. Every issue is logged with the success criterion, its location and a recommended fix.

B

Automated scanning

axe-core and Lighthouse scans cover every template and catch repeatable errors fast. Automation finds only part of the problems, so it supports the manual review and never replaces it.

C

Code remediation

We fix the source: semantic HTML, form labels, focus order, colour contrast, accessible menus and dialogs, and ARIA only where it is actually needed. Fixes go into your Laravel, React, WordPress or Shopify theme code.

D

Checkout and booking flows

The paths that earn you money get the closest attention: sign-up, cart, checkout, appointment forms and account pages. If a customer cannot finish these with a keyboard or screen reader, nothing else on the page matters.

E

Documents and media

PDF forms, video captions, transcripts and image alt text. We fix what we can and flag documents better rebuilt as web pages.

F

Monitoring after release

Automated checks run in your deployment pipeline or on a schedule, so a new banner or plugin does not quietly undo the work. We review flagged regressions and fix them.

G

Accessibility statement and evidence

A plain accessibility statement for your site and a conformance report listing what was tested, what was fixed and what remains. Ontario organizations can use it as technical evidence when preparing their compliance report.

How it ships

How an accessibility audit runs.

Every audit is done by a person with a keyboard and a screen reader, supported by automated scans, and it ends in fixes that your developers or ours can ship.

01

Check

A quick automated scan of your home page and one key flow shows the obvious problems and how much work the site needs.

02

Audit

Manual and automated testing against WCAG 2.1 or 2.2 AA, delivered as a prioritized issue list with screenshots and code-level fixes.

03

Fix

We fix the code, highest-impact barriers first, then retest each fix with assistive technology before closing it.

04

Monitor

Scheduled scans and spot checks keep new content and releases from bringing old problems back.

Frequently asked

Common questions.

Does my business website need to meet ADA accessibility standards?
There is no federal regulation written specifically for private business websites in the US, but businesses are regularly sued or sent demand letters under ADA Title III over sites that disabled customers cannot use. Whether the law applies to your business, and how, is a question for your lawyer. What we do is find and fix the barriers, measured against WCAG 2.1 or 2.2 AA.
What does the AODA require for our website?
Under Ontario's Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation, private and non-profit organizations with 50 or more employees must have public websites that meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA, with exceptions for live captions and pre-recorded audio description. Organizations with 20 or more employees must also file an accessibility compliance report, and the current one is due December 31, 2026. We supply the technical evidence about your website; you complete and sign the report.
Can an accessibility overlay fix this instead?
An overlay adds a script on top of the page and leaves the underlying code as it was, so screen reader users still hit the same barriers. In the US, the FTC has taken action against an overlay vendor over claims that its tool made websites compliant. We fix the code, and if you already run an overlay we help you remove it once the real fixes are in.
Is your audit legal advice?
No. FIMM provides technical implementation and is not a law firm, so nothing on this page or in our reports is legal advice. Our report describes how your site measures against WCAG. For questions about a lawsuit, a demand letter or your legal obligations, speak to a lawyer.
Can you promise our site will never face an accessibility claim?
No one can honestly promise that. We remove the barriers complaints are based on, document the work and keep testing as the site changes, which is a far stronger position than relying on a widget.
WCAG 2.1 or 2.2: which should we target?
WCAG 2.2 builds on 2.1 and adds criteria such as Focus Not Obscured, which stops sticky headers hiding the focused element, and a minimum target size. We usually test against 2.2 AA, which also covers the 2.1 and 2.0 criteria, so one audit serves both US and Ontario needs.
How much does a website accessibility audit cost?
Audits start at $999 for a small site with a handful of templates and key flows. The report lists every fix, so your developers can apply them or we can, and monitoring is optional.
We sell to customers in the EU. Does that change anything?
It can. The European Accessibility Act covers many services sold to consumers in the EU, including e-commerce, wherever the seller is based, with an exemption for microenterprises. The technical work is similar and based on WCAG 2.1 AA, so we can cover it in the same audit.
