What We Do
Fire Escape System Requirements for Property Owners
Be it residential buildings, apartments, historical buildings, or commercial buildings, we deal with a wide range of buildings located in New York and New Jersey. No two buildings are the same. Some buildings tend to have old fire escape ladders that need maintenance, while other, bigger buildings require constant inspection of the compliance of their fire escape systems. Whatever type of building needs our assistance, we will approach each case individually, with much consideration given to the peculiarities of each building. We support property owners in maintaining safe, compliant, and properly documented fire escape systems that meet local enforcement requirements.
