Accessibility Statement
Accessibility at Deep Cleaning Merton
Deep Cleaning Merton is committed to ensuring that our website and services are accessible to the widest possible audience, including people with disabilities. We aim to make it easy for everyone in the Merton area to find, understand, and use information about our deep cleaning services.
Our Accessibility Commitment
We are working towards meeting the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines help us build a website that is more inclusive and usable for all visitors, regardless of technology, ability, or situation. Our goal is to provide equal access to information about our deep cleaning services in Merton without creating barriers.
Accessibility is an ongoing process. As we add new pages and features, we review them with accessibility in mind and make improvements where needed. We also welcome feedback from users to help us identify and resolve any accessibility issues that might arise.
Screen Reader Support
The Deep Cleaning Merton website is designed to be compatible with modern screen readers. We aim to use clear headings, descriptive page titles, and logical content structure so that screen reader users can navigate our content efficiently. Images that carry important meaning are given text descriptions so that their purpose can be understood without seeing the image.
We also aim to ensure that interactive elements such as buttons and forms are properly labelled, so that screen readers can announce their function clearly. Where possible, we avoid using content that relies solely on visual cues, such as colour-only indicators, to convey important information.
Keyboard Navigation
Our website is being developed to support full navigation using only a keyboard. This is important for users who cannot use a mouse or prefer keyboard controls. You should be able to move through the main navigation, links, buttons, and form fields using the Tab, Shift plus Tab, Enter, and Space keys.
We work to maintain a visible focus indicator so that users can see which element is currently selected when navigating by keyboard. We also avoid using keyboard traps, where focus becomes stuck on a particular element and cannot move on without a mouse.
Design and Readability
To support accessible deep cleaning information for the Merton area, we aim for clear and consistent page layouts. We use readable font sizes, sufficient colour contrast between text and background, and a layout that adapts to different screen sizes and devices. Our text content is written in plain, straightforward language to help users quickly understand the details of our deep cleaning services.
Where we use icons or images to illustrate our work in Merton properties, we aim to pair them with descriptive text so that the same information is available to all visitors. We also avoid flashing or rapidly moving content that may cause difficulties for some users.
Ongoing Improvements
While we aim to comply with WCAG 2.1 AA, we recognise that some parts of the website may not yet fully meet these standards. We are actively reviewing the site to identify issues and prioritise fixes. This includes testing with different browsers, screen sizes, and assistive technologies, as well as updating content and structure where required.
As our deep cleaning services in Merton grow and change, we will continue to audit and improve the accessibility of new pages, booking tools, and service information.
