Schedule the inspection, deliver the report, complete repairs, re-inspect, close the violation — for West Milford property owners on a deadline.
The path to closing a fire escape violation is straightforward: current third-party inspection, repair of any documented deficiencies, re-inspection certification submitted to the AHJ. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections handles the inspection portion and the re-inspection — the property owner contracts repairs separately with any qualified Passaic County, New Jersey structural contractor. Independence is what makes the report credible to the West Milford fire official.
Passaic County, anchored by Paterson and Clifton, is dense urban with extensive two-family and three-family housing stock from the early 1900s.
Paterson tax rates are 3.0-3.8% of assessed value, among the highest in NJ.

The deadline is specified on the notice — typically 30, 60, or 90 days, though it can be shorter for serious safety conditions. Read the notice carefully and act promptly; missed deadlines trigger escalating fines.
In some cases, yes — particularly when the property owner has demonstrated good-faith progress (inspection completed, repair contractor engaged, work scheduled). Communicate proactively. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections's inspection report and the repair contract can support an extension request.
The independent inspection report is the factual record. If the cited conditions are not actually present, the report documents that. If they are present, the report classifies severity. Either way the report is what the AHJ ultimately reviews.
No. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections is independent and does not perform repairs. After the inspection identifies deficiencies, the property owner takes the report to a qualified structural or welding contractor for competitive repair quotes.
Fines escalate. The AHJ may issue additional enforcement actions including increased fines, additional re-inspection fees, and in serious cases a vacate order. Schedule the inspection promptly even if repairs cannot be completed before the deadline, and communicate progress to the AHJ.
