Fire escape ladder inspection
Anyone knows how much does it cost to do a fire escape ladder inspection? I got a quote from a reputable local company and it’s $6600!!! This property is only 3 stories and 3 units! I’m in Seattle, but the rules applied are universal. All of these outdoor fire escape ladder need to be inspected by a structural engineer every five years. I googled, but not very much info. Called another company, only to find out that they are the sub contractor of the first company. Called several structural engineers and few of them ever did it. Help! Help! Help! The $6600 is for inspection only. No idea how much more for the maintenance, or even reinspection.
