ADA Ramp Repair
Compliant repair and installation of ADA accessibility ramps for commercial and public spaces.
Concrete Company Services
ADA ramp repair restores accessibility features that have become non-compliant or unsafe due to settling, surface deterioration, or incorrect original construction. The Americans with Disabilities Act mandates specific slope ratios (1:12 maximum), landing dimensions, handrail heights, and surface textures. When ramps fail to meet these standards—whether from damage or poor initial installation—they create liability and deny access to individuals with mobility devices.
Repairing ADA ramps requires precise measurement and correction. We assess the existing ramp slope with digital levels, measure landing sizes, check edge protection, and evaluate surface slip resistance. Repairs may involve removing and re-pouring sections to correct slope, resurfacing to restore texture, or rebuilding landings to meet dimensional requirements. The goal is to bring the ramp into full compliance while restoring safe, dignified access.

Slope Measurement and Correction
ADA requires ramps to have a maximum 1:12 slope (1 inch of rise per 12 inches of run). We measure the existing ramp slope with digital levels to determine compliance. If the slope is too steep, we remove and re-pour the ramp at the correct angle, adjusting the run length or lowering the landing elevation as needed.
Incorrect slope makes ramps unusable for wheelchairs and creates dangerous rollback conditions.
Landing Dimension Compliance
Ramp landings must be at least 60 inches long and as wide as the ramp itself. Landings at direction changes require 60x60 inch minimum dimensions. We verify landing sizes and rebuild undersized landings to meet code. Inadequate landings prevent wheelchair users from safely maneuvering or resting.
Proper landing dimensions are non-negotiable for ADA compliance.
Surface Texture Restoration
ADA ramps require slip-resistant surfaces. Worn or smooth concrete loses traction, especially when wet. We restore texture through broom finishing on new pours or by applying bonded overlays with textured finishes to existing surfaces. The texture must provide grip without being so rough it impedes wheelchair movement.
Slip-resistant surfaces are critical for safety in all weather conditions.
Edge Protection and Handrails
Ramps require edge protection (curbs or railings) to prevent wheels from rolling off the side. Handrails must be installed on both sides if the ramp rise exceeds 6 inches, positioned 34-38 inches above the ramp surface. We assess and install missing edge protection and coordinate handrail installation to code.
Edge protection and handrails prevent falls and provide necessary support for users.
Drainage to Prevent Ponding
Water pooling on ramps creates slip hazards and ice formation in cold weather. We grade ramps with a slight cross-slope (maximum 1:48) to shed water off the sides without affecting accessibility. Ramps with drainage problems get re-graded or have drainage channels added.
Standing water on ramps is both a safety hazard and a compliance violation.
Transition Smoothness
Transitions between the ramp and landings or sidewalks must be smooth, with no lips or abrupt changes that catch wheelchair casters. We grind down transitions or rebuild sections to eliminate vertical discontinuities greater than 1/4 inch. Rough transitions cause wheelchairs to stop abruptly or tip.
Smooth transitions ensure uninterrupted, safe passage for all mobility devices.
