If a fire escape on a Long Beach Township 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 Ocean County, New Jersey.
Ocean County is shore-heavy — Toms River, Lakewood, and the barrier-island towns. Lakewood's older multi-family core and shore commercial buildings carry the fire escapes.
Lakewood's rapid growth means change-of-ownership documentation drives many inspection requests.
Barrier-island steel lives a hard life; we scope marine-grade recoating by default on island structures.

Oyster Fire Escape Inspections performs fire escape repairs as well as inspections — and that combination matters. The crew that documented a deficiency in Long Beach Township 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 Ocean 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.

A load test applies a controlled load — typically 1,000 pounds per landing, or five times the design live load, whichever is greater — and verifies the structure carries it without permanent deformation. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections performs the test on-site at Long Beach Township properties, documents the procedure, and includes the test results in the certification report submitted to the Ocean County AHJ.

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.
