The Challenge

Your Traverse City tourism website uses light blue text on pale backgrounds. Visitors over 60 or those with cataracts cannot read attraction descriptions or booking information.

Our Solution

AppWT adjusts text and background colors to meet 4.5:1 contrast ratios while maintaining your brand aesthetics. Sterling Heights seniors and low-vision users read every word clearly on screens and mobile devices.

About Our Color Contrast Fixes Services

Low-vision users struggle with light gray text on white backgrounds or pastel color schemes. AppWT analyzes and corrects color contrast ratios to meet WCAG AA standards of 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text. Our design team in Ann Arbor adjusts text colors, button states, and link indicators while preserving brand identity. We use automated tools and manual testing to verify readability for visitors with color blindness or aging vision. Royal Oak medical practices and Flint educational institutions make content legible for everyone.

What's Included

✓ Every text and interface pair measured, not eyeballed
✓ WCAG AA thresholds applied at 4.5 to 1 and 3 to 1
✓ Hover, focus, visited and disabled states included
✓ Fixes applied at token level so they stay consistent
✓ Focus indicators checked for their own contrast
✓ Verified on the rendered page in a real browser

Technical Details

Contrast is measured, never judged by eye. Every text and interface colour pair is evaluated as a ratio computed from relative luminance, against the WCAG 2.1 AA thresholds: 4.5 to 1 for body text, 3 to 1 for large text at 18.66px bold or 24px regular, and 3 to 1 for interface components and meaningful graphics. Testing covers the states that are routinely missed, including hover, focus, visited, disabled and placeholder text, plus text sitting over background images or gradients where the effective background varies across the element. Fixes are applied at the design token or CSS custom property level so one change propagates consistently rather than being patched per component, and inline style attributes are removed where they override the cascade. Focus indicators are checked for their own contrast against both the component and the page background. Verification is run against the rendered page in a real browser, since a value in a stylesheet is not proof of what a visitor actually sees after the cascade resolves.

Color Contrast Fixes Across Metro Detroit & Beyond

Our headquarters sits at Five Mile and Farmington in Livonia. We have served Michigan businesses since 1997 — 29+ years from one home base, now serving clients nationwide across the United States and in five more countries.

Livonia Home Base

Contrast is computed, never judged. Every pair is measured as a ratio from relative luminance, because the eye adapts and the maths does not.

Wayne County Corridor

The states everyone forgets. Sites for Westland, Garden City, Plymouth, Canton and Dearborn businesses get hover, focus, visited, disabled and placeholder checked, not just resting text.

Oakland County

Text over images is the hard case. Farmington Hills, Novi, Southfield, Birmingham and Troy pages are checked against the worst point of the background, not an average.

Beyond Metro Detroit

Fixed at token level, not per component. Flint, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Grand Rapids and 21-state sites get one change that propagates, with inline style attributes removed where they override the cascade.
