Wahl Construction Co. specializes in ADA-compliant sidewalk and landing installations that ensure accessibility and safety for all building occupants and visitors in Kansas City. Our dedicated team designs and constructs pathways that fully comply with Americans with Disabilities Act standards while seamlessly integrating with existing architectural elements. With comprehensive knowledge of KCMO accessibility requirements and construction regulations, we create durable, properly sloped surfaces with appropriate tactile warnings, ensuring your property provides universal access while enhancing your facility's functionality and helping you avoid potential compliance issues.
What We Offer
Precision Slope Management
Our team employs advanced grading techniques to achieve the precise slopes required for ADA compliance, maintaining consistent cross-slopes of less than 2% and running slopes under 5% as mandated by accessibility standards. We utilize specialized measurement tools and leveling systems throughout the construction process, ensuring smooth transitions between surfaces that facilitate safe navigation for wheelchair users and individuals with mobility challenges.
Tactile Warning Surface Integration
We expertly install detectable warning surfaces at all required transition points, creating crucial sensory cues for visually impaired individuals. Our installation methods ensure these tactile elements remain firmly anchored and properly positioned according to ADA specifications, using materials specifically selected to withstand heavy pedestrian traffic and Kansas City's variable weather conditions while maintaining their visual contrast and textural properties.
Seamless Transition Design
Our sidewalks and landings incorporate carefully engineered transitions between different elevations and surface types, eliminating hazardous lips or gaps that could impede mobility devices. We create flush connections at doorways, curb cuts, and material changes, using specialized forming techniques and finishing methods that produce smooth, continuous pathways while maintaining proper drainage patterns that prevent water accumulation on walking surfaces.
