No — and that is intentional. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections is an independent inspection firm. Property owners in Jamesburg, New Jersey take the inspection report to any qualified structural or welding contractor in Middlesex County for repair quotes. The separation eliminates the conflict of interest of an inspector who also sells repair work.

Will my Jamesburg fire escape fail the inspection if it has rust?

Rust alone is not an automatic failure — section loss is. Oyster Fire Escape Inspections measures and documents the extent of any corrosion and notes whether structural integrity is compromised. Middlesex County inspectors and New Jersey fire officials rely on this kind of measured documentation to decide enforcement.

Will the Jamesburg AHJ accept this report or will they require their own inspection?
