I have hired this company doing inspection on the property that I was planning to purchase in Georgia. I’ve live in California when this was done. Frank Cooper and his team did a great job of inspection and giving me with every details. I really appreciate the advice and the report. Thank you
Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc. was referred to us by our realtor for our home inspection. Our inspector was Cary Cooper. He really took the time to answer all of our questions about his findings. We didn't feel rushed or that any question was too silly. He gave us peace of mind with a few of our concerns and was honest, even if we weren't to thrilled with the news. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely use (and refer) Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc. in the future for any inspection needs.
We are relocating from out of state and we were in need of an inspection with a very tight turn around. We received incredibly thorough reporting and an availability to answer questions quickly. Cary Cooper’s professional and expert insight saved us from a potential health hazard. I would very much recommend Atlanta Property Inspection for any of your inspection needs!
I would like to recommend Brandon for his excellent job during the inspection. He is very professional, thorough and is an expert in his field. I enjoyed his partnership during inspection, the knowledge he shared of the risks of certain issues was incredible. I am very glad that he inspected the house for us and wishing him more success in future.
This was my first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections. Alex Sozonov was my inspector. Very oriented details and willing to explained all questions with professional knowledge. Report came into my email box late night. Clearly, it has been covered all details. Plus, show up on time.
Dustin was absolutely amazing. He did such a thorough job and was super friendly and helpful in explaining everything to me as a first-time homeowner. Highly recommend this company! Very timely and professional throughout the entire process as well!
Dustin is VERY Detailed Oriented and found items and suggestions on the home that I would have never thought of, the report provided very good insight on how to move forward with the sale of the home! The staff at API was great to work with!
Frank Cooper and his team from Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc were excellent! They arrived on time and thoroughly inspected all areas of the property I was considering renting. They found things that needed to be repaired by the landlord before we signed the lease. Frank reviewed his findings with us. He explained all of his concerns, and he patiently answered all of our questions. Then the next day I received a very detailed report that included several pictures and detailed explanations. If you want a kind, knowledgeable, and thorough inspector, don’t hesitate to call Frank Cooper with Atlanta Property. I would highly recommend him! Truly a 5 star company!
Dustin was very knowledgeable and friendly and made my client feel confident in his explanations. He was quick to point out the positives of the home he was inspecting. His report was delivered within 18 hours of the inspection and had plenty of photos and very easy explanations in laymen's terms. I highly recommend Atlanta Property Inspections.
The inspector was really thorough and was patient in explaining to me what he was observing. He showed me where the shutoff valve was for the water and gave recommendations on various things. The report that was provided made sense and pictures were taken of some things that were found. The inspector was also very personable which put me at ease about asking questions. Thank you, Alex and Atlanta Property Inspections!

A balcony is an excellent place to spend time, especially if you want to enjoy the outdoor air while still being in the comfort of your own home. Unfortunately, as balconies are outdoors, they are constantly in contact with environmental elements like wind, water, and dirt. As a result, it needs to be checked regularly to ensure everything is fine and safe. In this article, we will discuss some of the maintenance tips for your balcony and the stairs.
Regular cleaning is important for the longevity of your balcony and stairs. At least once every season, try to do a thorough cleaning. It doesn’t have to be tiring and complicated; simply get a gentle brush and a solution of water and soap and clean up any dust, grime, and cobwebs. Of course, before cleaning, check if there are certain instructions for the particular material of your balcony and stairs, though most of the time, simple water and soap are not an issue at all. If there are additional stains or dirt, you may need to use a bit more force; just make sure not to be too harsh with it, especially if the balcony and stairs are wooden.
Damage to balconies and stairways is frequently caused by moisture. Make sure that appropriate drainage systems are installed and operating efficiently to stop water from entering your house. Before water seeps into the structure, fix any fractures or holes you may notice. Also, screws and bolts may become loose with time as a result of usage and environmental factors. Making sure these fasteners are in good condition and are all tightened up is also important. If you think it’s not something you can handle on your own, you can seek the help of a professional.
Your balcony or deck can be shielded from many environmental factors, like rain and sunlight, by sealing it. Every two to three years, recoat your balcony. When applying, make sure to carefully follow the manufacturer's application guidelines. Also, if your stairs are made of metal, you should protect them from rust by applying a rust-preventative coating at least once a year.
To find and fix any possible structural problems or safety dangers, routine inspections are necessary. Every few years, have a professional perform a balcony inspection for wear and tear indicators like loose or rotting boards, distorted supports, or rusted metal. Some issues can escape your eye, but they will be much more thorough, and this will protect you from safety risks.
