Full-service inspection with repairs and re-certification by the same crew. NJ Uniform Fire Code compliant. Reports formatted for the Salem, New Jersey fire official and your insurance carrier.
Fire escapes on older properties in Salem 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 Salem County, New Jersey fire official.
Salem County is NJ's smallest by population; its fire escapes sit on the historic brick commercial rows of Salem City and Penns Grove.
Small-town enforcement is relationship-driven; a complete, well-documented report goes a long way here.
A fire escape inspection and certification in Salem, NJ costs $1,375 for the first fire escape and $350 for each additional fire escape on the same property, including the written report and the engineer-signed certification.
