Post-incident inspection on an expedited timeline — for Hamilton property owners and managers needing the AHJ to clear re-occupancy.
When an incident affects the fire escape on a Hamilton property — vehicle impact, fire damage, a heavy load event, sudden visible deformation — the structure cannot be relied upon as egress until it is inspected and the load-bearing capacity verified. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections responds to Mercer County, New Jersey emergency requests promptly.
Mercer County, anchored by Trenton, includes Princeton, Hamilton, and Ewing. Trenton row houses (Chambersburg, North Trenton) make up a large share of distressed-property sales.
