Full-service inspection with repairs and re-certification by the same crew. NJ Uniform Fire Code compliant. Reports formatted for the Lower Township, New Jersey fire official and your insurance carrier.
Fire escapes on older properties in Lower Township typically have not been load tested in years — sometimes decades. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections performs the periodic inspection and load test required under NJ code, and delivers a written report ready for submission to the Cape May County, New Jersey fire official.
Cape May County is shore real estate — and its Victorian-era hotels and guest houses carry some of the oldest fire escapes in NJ, in the most corrosive environment.
Seasonal occupancy means inspection windows matter — most Cape May owners schedule in the off-season so repairs don't collide with rental season.
