Post-incident inspection on an expedited timeline — for Far Hills property owners and managers needing the AHJ to clear re-occupancy.
After a fire, a structural impact, a heavy load event, or any incident that may have compromised the fire escape on a Far Hills, New Jersey property, the structure must be re-inspected before it returns to service as a means of egress. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections responds to Somerset County post-incident requests on an expedited basis.
Somerset County is corporate-suburban; fire escapes cluster in the older downtowns of Somerville, Bound Brook, and Raritan.
Somerville's active Main Street means mixed-use buildings with commercial tenants below and apartments above — the classic NJ fire escape configuration.
A fire escape inspection and certification in Far Hills, 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.
