Accessibility Statement

Our commitment
HomeMaterialCalc is committed to making our calculators and guides accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.
What we do
- All calculator form inputs have descriptive labels
- Color contrast meets WCAG AA standards (minimum 4.5:1 for body text)
- The site is keyboard-navigable without a mouse
- Headings are structured logically (H1 → H2 → H3)
- Interactive elements have visible focus indicators
- Images used for decoration have empty alt attributes; informative images have descriptive alt text
- The site is responsive and works on all screen sizes
- Results are presented as text, not image-only, so they work with screen readers
Known limitations
We are an ongoing project. The following areas are under continuous improvement:
- Some data tables in guide pages may not have full screen-reader row/column headers yet
- Mobile menu keyboard trap prevention is being refined
Feedback
If you experience any accessibility barrier while using HomeMaterialCalc, please contact us. We will do our best to address the issue promptly and provide the information you need in an alternative format.
Technical approach
This site is built with Astro (static HTML), React for interactive calculators, and Tailwind CSS. Pages are statically generated for fast load times and use semantic HTML5 elements throughout.
