When it comes to commercial paving, aesthetics and durability are important—but ADA compliance is non-negotiable. Failure to meet federal accessibility standards doesn’t just lead to fines—it exposes your business to lawsuits, limits customer access, and damages your reputation.
At We Love Paving, we specialize in paving solutions that are fully ADA-compliant from the ground up—because accessibility starts in the parking lot.
♿ What Is ADA Compliance in Paving?
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that public properties—including businesses, schools, medical centers, retail spaces, and multifamily complexes—provide accessible routes for individuals with disabilities.
That means ensuring:
-
Proper slope and grading in parking lots and walkways
-
Accessible parking stalls with correct width, striping, and signage
-
Detectable warning surfaces at ramps and crossings
-
Compliant curb ramps, transitions, and landings
Non-compliance doesn’t just inconvenience—it violates federal law and creates legal exposure.
⚠️ What Happens If You’re Not ADA Compliant?
Ignoring ADA regulations can lead to:
-
Fines of up to $75,000 for first violations
-
Lawsuits from private individuals or the Department of Justice
-
Required corrective construction
-
Loss of business and damaged community trust
The cost of fixing violations is always higher than getting it right the first time.
