Accessibility

Last updated September 2026

This page says what we actually do and what we currently do not, rather than claiming a grade. We have not had this site independently audited, so we are not going to tell you it conforms to a standard we have not tested it against.

What gets measured on every deploy

This site is rebuilt and re-measured every time anything changes, and the build stops if a check fails. The figures below are from the build that published this page.

Color contrast. 13,334 individual runs of text measured against the color actually behind them, at 1280 pixels wide. All of them meet the AA ratio except the exception described in the next section.
Layout at real screen sizes. 696 page and width combinations checked, every page at 320, 375, 390, 414, 768, 1024, 1280 and 1550 pixels, confirming no page forces sideways scrolling.
Headings and alt text. Every page checked for heading order and for images missing a text alternative.
Links. 10,887 internal links checked, none broken.

What does not currently meet the contrast standard

121 button labels on this site are white text on the light blue taken from the Splash Pools logo. Measured, that combination is about 2.35 to 1, which does not meet the AA minimum for text. Our build counts them on every deploy rather than passing them silently, and they are the reason this page does not claim conformance.

This is a deliberate brand decision rather than an oversight, recorded as such in the code. The fix, if it is ever chosen, is dark ink on the same blue, which measures about 7.3 to 1 and keeps the logo color intact. If those buttons are hard for you to read, that is useful to know and we would like to hear it.

What the site does structurally

A skip link to the main content as the first focusable element on every page.
Visible keyboard focus styling, so the page can be navigated without a mouse.
A declared page language, so screen readers pronounce the content correctly.
Motion is reduced automatically if your device asks for that. Nineteen separate rules on this site respond to the reduced-motion setting.
Fonts are served from this domain rather than a third party, so pages render without waiting on an outside connection.
Every page also publishes a plain text version at the same address ending in .md, with no layout or navigation around it.

Where this site is likely to be weakest

Automated checks find the things machines can measure. They do not find everything, and it would be misleading to imply otherwise. The areas we would expect to be weakest are the interactive pieces: the booking form, the diagnostic tools and the maps. Those have not been tested with assistive technology by anyone who uses it daily, which is a real gap rather than a hypothetical one.

If something here does not work for you

Call 239-450-5933 and say what page you were on and what happened. You will reach the people who own this site rather than a ticket queue, and we would rather fix a real problem than defend a checklist.

If it is easier to give the information another way, that is fine too. If you cannot use this website to get what you need, the phone number above gets you the same answers a page would have given you.

About standards, briefly

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines are the reference we design against and the measurements above use their contrast ratios. The Department of Justice has said since 1996 that the Americans with Disabilities Act applies to web content, while also stating that it does not have a regulation setting out detailed standards for private businesses, which have flexibility in how they meet the obligation.

We mention that because a great deal of what is sent to small businesses about website accessibility is wrong in one direction or the other. This page is not legal advice, and anything turning on a specific situation belongs with a lawyer rather than a pool contractor.
