If a fire escape on a Greenwich property is approaching its 5-year inspection cycle, has been cited for a code violation, or is required for an insurance renewal, Oyster Fire Escape Inspections performs the inspection, the load test where applicable, and issues the certification. Service covers every municipality in Gloucester County, New Jersey.
Gloucester County is suburban South Jersey; its fire escapes sit mostly on older downtown blocks in Glassboro, Woodbury, and Paulsboro.
Smaller fire bureaus here typically accept well-documented third-party reports on first submission.
Most Gloucester jobs are single-building, single-visit inspections; repairs when needed are usually modest scope.

Oyster Fire Escape Inspections performs fire escape repairs as well as inspections — and that combination matters. The crew that documented a deficiency in Greenwich is the crew that repairs it: welding, anchor replacement, tread and ladder work, scaling and paint. Every repair quote is a fixed price itemized against the photographed deficiency list, so Gloucester County, New Jersey owners see exactly what each line fixes — and owners who already hold a report from another inspection firm can hand it over and get repairs priced straight from it.

Oyster Fire Escape Inspections charges a flat published rate: $1,375 for the first fire escape and $350 for each additional fire escape at the same Greenwich, New Jersey property.

Verified emergency responders and teachers receive a 5% discount. Repairs are not included; when repairs are needed they are quoted separately in writing before any work.

Oyster Fire Escape Inspections charges a transparent flat rate for the inspection and certification ($1,375 / $350 per additional), documents every finding with photographs, and quotes repairs separately in writing only when they are genuinely needed — most Greenwich fire escapes are certified without any.
