Accessibility Statement
Gettysburg Mold Remediation Pros wants every person in Gettysburg to be able to read this site, understand what we do, and reach us, whatever device or assistive technology they use. Mold is a health problem, and the people who most need to read about it often include older residents, people with asthma or allergies, and people with a weakened immune system. Getting this right matters to us.
1. The Standard We Aim For
We aim to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). WCAG is also the standard that Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is generally measured against in the United States. We treat level AA as the target for every page, not just the home page.
2. What We Have Built In
- Keyboard access. Every link, button, menu, and form field can be reached and operated with the Tab, Enter, Space, and arrow keys, without a mouse.
- Skip to main content. A skip link is the first thing in the tab order on every page, so keyboard and screen reader users can jump past the header and navigation.
- Visible focus. The element you are on is outlined, so you can always see where you are.
- Real headings. Each page has one H1 and a heading order that does not skip levels, so screen reader users can navigate by heading.
- Landmarks. Header, navigation, main, and footer are marked up as real regions, and the navigation carries an accessible name.
- Image text alternatives. Photographs carry descriptive alt text. Decorative graphics and icons are hidden from screen readers so they do not add noise.
- Labeled forms. Every field on the inspection request form has a visible label tied to its input, required fields are marked, and the result message is announced to screen readers.
- Color contrast. Body text, headings, and buttons are checked against the WCAG AA contrast ratios of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text.
- Text that resizes. The layout uses relative units, so zooming to 200 percent or raising your browser font size does not cut text off.
- Works on any screen. The site reflows to one column on phones without side to side scrolling.
- Plain language. We explain mold terms such as containment, negative air, HEPA, and clearance testing the first time each one appears.
- No traps. No content flashes, no audio plays on its own, and nothing moves in a way you cannot stop.
3. Known Limitations
We would rather name the gaps than claim the site is perfect. As of the date above:
- Embedded Google map. The map on the service area section comes from Google and we do not control its markup or keyboard behavior. Every address and direction it shows is also available as plain text, and there is a Get directions link next to it.
- Cost tables. The pricing tables are wide. On a small phone screen part of a table can be hard to read. The same figures are written out in the text above and below each table.
- Third party content. If we ever embed a form, review widget, or video from another company, its accessibility is set by that company. We will not embed anything we know to be inaccessible.
We work through these as we find them. If you hit one that is not listed, please tell us.
4. Assistive Technology
This site is built as plain HTML and CSS with very little JavaScript, which is the most reliable thing to hand to an assistive technology. It is intended to work with current versions of screen readers such as NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack, with speech recognition software, with screen magnifiers, and with browser reader modes. If your setup is older or less common and something does not work, contact us and we will help you directly.
5. Getting Help Another Way
You never have to use this website to get service from us. If any part of it blocks you, call (717) 256-4434. The line is answered 24/7 and a person will take your details, answer your questions, and book an on-site estimate over the phone. We can also read any page of this site to you, or send the same information by email or post.
6. Tell Us About a Problem
If you find a page you cannot use, we want to hear about it. It helps us if you can include the page address, what you were trying to do, and the browser or assistive technology you were using, but tell us in whatever way is easiest for you.

7. How We Keep This Up
Accessibility is checked when pages are built and again whenever a page changes: keyboard walkthrough of the whole page, heading order, contrast ratios, alt text, and form labels. This statement is reviewed at least once a year and updated whenever the site changes in a way that affects it.
8. Formal Complaints
We would like the chance to put things right first, so please contact us before anything else. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division, which handles complaints under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
