Croydon Carpet Cleaners Website Accessibility Statement
Croydon Carpet Cleaners is committed to providing an inclusive and accessible online experience for all visitors in the Croydon area and beyond. This accessibility statement explains the measures we take to support accessible use of our website and the steps we are taking to improve accessibility over time.
Our Commitment to Accessibility
We aim to make the Croydon Carpet Cleaners website easy to use, understand and navigate for as many people as possible, including those using assistive technologies. Our goal is to ensure that customers looking for accessible carpet cleaning services in Croydon can obtain information, request quotes and learn about our services without unnecessary barriers.
Standards and Guidelines
The design and development of our website are guided by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1, level AA. These guidelines, known as WCAG 2.1 AA, describe how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, hearing, cognitive and motor impairments.
By working towards WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, we seek to provide a consistent and inclusive digital experience for all users visiting our Croydon Carpet Cleaners site.
Screen Reader Support
Our website is structured to work with commonly used screen readers. We use clear page titles, headings and descriptive text to help screen reader users understand the layout and content of each page. Images used on the site are given meaningful alternative text whenever they convey important information, ensuring that users who cannot see images can still access the same content.
We aim to provide logical reading order and consistent navigation so people using screen readers can move around the site efficiently when learning about our carpet and upholstery cleaning services in Croydon.
Keyboard Navigation
The Croydon Carpet Cleaners website is designed to be navigable using only a keyboard. Users can move between links, buttons and form fields without using a mouse. Focus indicators are provided so it is clear which element is currently selected.
Forms and interactive elements are created to support keyboard-only use, helping customers who rely on keyboard navigation to request information or arrange carpet cleaning in Croydon.
Visual Design and Readability
We aim to use sufficient colour contrast between text and background, clear font choices and a layout that supports readability. Text can be enlarged using browser zoom tools without loss of content or functionality. We avoid relying solely on colour to convey meaning and use clear labels and instructions wherever possible.
Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing process. We review our website periodically to identify issues and make improvements in line with WCAG 2.1 AA best practices. As our services and content for the Croydon area grow, we will continue to integrate accessibility into our design and development processes.
Third Party Content
Some content or tools on our site may be provided by third party services. While we do not control the accessibility of these external services, we aim to work with suppliers who share our commitment to accessible online experiences.

We welcome feedback from all users about the accessibility of the Croydon Carpet Cleaners website. If you experience any difficulty using our site, encounter a barrier, or need information about our carpet cleaning services in a different format, you can contact us using the contact page on this website.
When contacting us with an accessibility request, please describe the issue you encountered, the page you were visiting, and the type of device or assistive technology you use if you are comfortable sharing this. This information helps us diagnose problems and work towards solutions more quickly.
Reasonable Adjustments
Where possible, we will provide reasonable adjustments to ensure you can access information about our services in the Croydon area. This may include providing written information in alternative formats or assisting you with booking or enquiry processes if online forms present a challenge.
