Frequently asked questions
How much does a wheelchair ramp cost?
Ramp pricing is usually quoted per linear foot. Aluminum modular ramps typically run $100-$300 per foot installed nationally, $150-$300 in Atlanta. Wood-built ramps run $50-$200 per foot nationally, $100-$200 in Atlanta. Poured concrete runs $100-$250 per foot nationally, $150-$250 in Atlanta.
How long does my ramp need to be?
At the ADA-maximum 1:12 slope, you need 1 foot of ramp for every inch of rise — a 24-inch step needs a 24-foot ramp. Use our ramp length calculator to work out the exact length for your rise before you call for pricing.
Aluminum, wood, or concrete — which costs less over time?
Aluminum modular ramps install fastest and can be reconfigured or removed later, which can make them cheaper for a temporary need since they retain resale value. Wood costs less upfront but needs more upkeep. Concrete is the most permanent and lowest-maintenance, but costs the most in labor and can't be relocated.
