The service
What ada & casp accessibility audit is, what a visit covers and where the line is.
The short answer
An accessibility audit is a site survey by a qualified specialist who measures a building or space against the accessibility standards that apply to it. ADA & CASp Accessibility Audit in Los Gatos is booked through pros who cover its 4 ZIP codes, in neighborhoods such as Downtown Los Gatos, Almond Grove, and Belgatos. In Los Gatos, the dry season from late spring to fall is the easiest time for outside work, and the fall calendar fills before the first big rain. The work to fix barriers is separate, and each pro sets what they provide.

What shapes a ada & casp accessibility audit job
These are the things that make one job different from another. Mention them in your notes so each pro can scope your job properly.
What you receive
An accessibility audit normally produces a written report with measurements and photos of each barrier. Each pro sets what they provide, including the report format and any prioritization of corrections.
- A written report of the areas surveyed, the standards used and the findings
- Measurements and photos documenting each barrier or feature the specialist surveyed
- A prioritized list of corrections, with the most significant items first
- Notes on options when a correction may be difficult to make
- Areas not surveyed or not accessible and the reason
- The specialist’s credential details so the report can be shown to others
What is not part of ada & casp accessibility audit
Knowing where the line is keeps the visit on track and keeps you safe. When a job belongs to a specialist, NorTech tells you before you book.
- Carrying out the corrections: ramps, restroom changes, door work, striping and signage are separate services.
- Legal advice, responding to demand letters or lawsuits, or any guarantee of compliance or protection from claims.
- Any job where labor and materials together reach $1,000. Work reaching that amount is done by a licensed contractor, as NorTech flags beforehand.
- Architectural drawings, engineering or permit applications, unless the pro offers them and you agree in advance.
- Website or digital accessibility audits.
- Areas that are locked, unsafe or unavailable on the day of the survey.
License and permits for ada & casp accessibility audit
Where a program certifies accessibility specialists, pros who take these jobs hold the credential that applies where the work is done. Any construction that follows, such as ramps, restroom changes and structural work, is licensed-trade work done by contractors who hold the license.
A survey needs no permit. Corrections such as ramps, widened doors, restroom remodels and parking changes commonly need permits and inspections, and the rules depend on the local building office. Your contractor can explain what applies.
Check the credentials on the pro profile and ask for the certification number to appear on the report. If you need a report for a permit, lender, court or lease, ask the pro whether it meets that use before you book.

Before you book ada & casp accessibility audit
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Gather plans and past reports
Find floor plans, earlier surveys, permits and any correspondence about accessibility. They show what has already been reviewed and changed.
Know your lease and responsibilities
Check which areas you control and which the landlord or association does. Tell the specialist so the report separates items you can fix from items to raise with others.
Open every area for the visit
Make sure the specialist can reach restrooms, back-of-house areas, storage, stairs and any locked rooms. Unsurveyed areas leave gaps in the report.
Photograph known problem spots
Take pictures of steps, worn paving, ramps, door thresholds and restrooms you are concerned about. They help the specialist plan the survey.
Share any complaint or letter
If you received a complaint or letter, give it to the specialist so the survey covers the named items. The audit is a factual record and not a legal response.
Plan repairs after the report
Keep the report so you can brief contractors and phase work in order. Ask for quotes from several pros for the same list so you can compare them.
