CALIFORNIA CHANGES THE CODES. WE KEEP UP SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO.
Access code changes don't come with a notice to your inbox. They show up when somebody surveys the property. We write scopes to current code and tell you plainly where the property stands today.
ADA Parking Lot and Path of Travel Compliance in San Diego County, CA
For property managers and ownership groups who need to know where a property stands before somebody else tells them. TMC Engineering walks the property, writes a scope of work to current code, and gives you a document you can budget against. Here is what we handle:
ADA Path of Travel Assessment
We walk the accessible route from the public way to the entrance and note every place the property no longer meets current code — slope, width, surface condition, obstructions and signage. You get a written list, ranked by exposure, that you can budget against instead of a verbal opinion.
Accessible Parking Stalls and Access Aisles
Stall count, stall and aisle dimensions, van-accessible spaces and the connection from the stall to the entrance all have to work together. We lay out and build accessible stalls and access aisles to current code, and phase the work so the lot stays open while we do it.
Curb Ramps and Truncated Domes
Curb ramps are the first thing a surveyor looks at and the first thing that fails. We remove non-compliant ramps and rebuild them to current dimensions with detectable warning surfaces, matched to the walkway and the crossing they serve.
Slope, Signage and Stall Layout to Current Code
Running slope, cross-slope and stall layout are where most properties fall out of code without anyone noticing. We correct slope in the accessible route, lay out stalls and access aisles to current dimensions, and install signage, tow-away notices and pavement markings that match what the code asks for today.

Does An Older Lot Have To Meet Current ADA Code?
It depends on what work is being done. Alterations to a property generally trigger current-code requirements in the altered area and the path of travel serving it. We walk the property and write out what applies before you commit to a scope.
Will TMC Certify That My Property Is Compliant?
No, and be careful with anyone who says they will. We build to current code and give you a written scope of what we did and why. Formal compliance determinations come from a Certified Access Specialist.
