Post-incident inspection on an expedited timeline — for Collingswood property owners and managers needing the AHJ to clear re-occupancy.
After a fire, a structural impact, a heavy load event, or any incident that may have compromised the fire escape on a Collingswood, New Jersey property, the structure must be re-inspected before it returns to service as a means of egress. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections responds to Camden County post-incident requests on an expedited basis.
Camden County runs from distressed urban stock in Camden City to suburban Cherry Hill. Camden City's row houses and twins include some of the most deteriorated fire escapes in the state.
