In 2016, the City of Cincinnati enacted a fire escape inspection building ordinance requiring periodic inspections for safety and stability.
Based on this ordinance, all fire escapes must be periodically inspected by a licensed, professional engineer or other qualified professional. While notifications of required fire escape inspections may be sent by the City of Cincinnati, you should consider your safety, the safety of your tenants, and the potential risks of unsafe fire escapes. Having an inspection today will get you ahead of the City’s requirements and minimize the risk of injury or worse.
Is your fire escape safe?
- Are there any hazardous conditions?
- Is any remedial work required?
- Is your fire escape capable of performing its function?
- Do you have a repair and maintenance program?
