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.

Have used Atlanta Property Inspections several times for my buyers.  Their team is always very thorough and educational for the new home owners.  Much information is shared about past/current codes, potential issues and how to have the issues repaired.  I will continue to use Atlanta Property Inspectors for future inspections, and my clients have been very happy with their services as well!

The inspector Frank came to our house to inspect the deck and provide a list of safety problems. While he was there we asked him to take a look at some termite damage in the attic.  When he went to the attic he spotted problems with a squirrel infestation requiring immediate action to correct for chewed wiring and unsanitary conditions.  We were unaware of this problem.  Frank provided a comprehensive inspection report in PDF format including multiple photos showing deck post deterioration, sagging joists and yes even a picture of the live squirrel in the attic. Frank is totally professional, knows his area of expertise very well and offers sound recommendations on how to correct problems without spending money for unnecessary improvements.  For example he told us the ledger board was in good shape and did not have to be replaced, only secured to the house wall with additional bolts. The small amount we paid for the inspection was well spent because the inspection will end up saving us money in the long run.

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 called several companies for quotes, and I felt that Atlanta Property Inspections was the most welcoming!  Thereafter, I had a wonderful experience at the inspection. My inspector was thorough, kind, and willing to explain things and answer my questions on site.  He was very knowledgeable and very friendly.  I am glad I did not skip the inspection for this 950 square foot condo, and the review has been very helpful, during my due diligence period in evaluating this potential home.

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.

WOW! I can't even make this story up. In this very crazy market (June 2021) it seemingly takes 2 week closing (sometimes with *0* days due diligence!) to purchase a home. Anyway, Frank came recommended by another very reputable inspector, and I was fortunate he came!! The home we were looking at for my mother was a 1975 build and within 1 hour of the inspector being there a FIRE from an electrical panel broke out! Frank contained the fire, and was SO calm, had his team address the matter, was in touch with the agent and homeowner. He said in over 20+ years of him inspecting homes nothing like this had ever happened. Anyway the inspection was VERY thorough and Frank handled all matters very professionally. We will be working with Frank and his team on any home inspections in the future. I highly recommend!

9 Questions to Ask Your Home Inspector During A Home Inspection

In the home buying process, the home inspection part is very critical because it determines whether the potential buyer will continue the process. Of course, in the end, you will most likely be given a sample report. However, as a potential future homeowner, nothing compares to experiencing the home inspection when it is taking place. That’s because it gives you the time to ask questions you may have to the inspector and clear your mind about certain issues. This article will review some key questions that should be asked during a home inspection.

What Credentials Do You Have?

The first step is selecting your inspector. You should learn the credentials of the inspector. Home inspections in Roswell are a crucial process that cannot be risked, so you must work with a professional. Under this category, you can ask whether the inspector is part of a professional organization and learn about their training. For example, certain states don’t require a home inspection license. In summary, before hiring an inspector, you should do a background check and work with a certified professional you can rely on.

What is the Condition of the Roof?

Make sure to ask your home inspector about the overall condition of your roof as well as the age of it. You can also ask them to estimate how much longer the roof has.

How is the Plumbing?

Plumbing is one of the most essential systems of your home. The inspector will examine the drains, water heaters, pipes, water pressure, and temperature, and you should ask the inspector about the overall condition of the plumbing system.

How is the Electrical System?

Electricity cannot be risked because minor ignorance can cause catastrophic effects. So, ask the home inspector if there are worn-out parts or if any damaged wires are present.

How is the HVAC System?

You should ask about the age and estimated lifespan of the HVAC unit in the home.

How Well Is The Home Insulated?

If you are a homeowner living in a city with extreme temperatures, you would know what a life changer insulation is. This can play a big role in the homebuying decision for many, so make sure to ask.

What are your major concerns?

As a potential homeowner, you should know what the main issues are regarding the home. Since in the report, every little detail will be written; it might be hard to know which issues are more urgent. So, ask the inspector about his/her major concerns.

Can you recommend a professional?

Since the need for certain repairs will appear, naturally need to find professionals who can perform the repairs and replacements is also crucial. Many home inspectors work with other professionals in the area, so you can ask them if they can recommend anyone.

Any Tips On Home Maintenance?

Maintenance is the key to healthy homes. Since home inspectors examine many homes, they understand the important steps of home maintenance.
