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!
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 our first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections, Frank Cooper was the lead inspector and he was inspecting a new construction one bedroom plus den in Alpharetta for a buyer client of ours. The inspection report was both detailed and comprehensive. We have tried out a few premium home inspection companies over the past year, looking for a good additional inspection resource, and based on our experience with Frank Cooper, I think we have found it.
My client used the company for their home inspection during their due diligence period. Jeremy and his partner were very kind and accommodating with answering questions. The report was very thorough and I like that they also note positive things about the homes in their report as well and not just what's wrong with the house. You can read the good and the bad.
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!
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 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!
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
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.
Atlanta Property Inspections came to do a pre-purchasing inspection on a home my husband and I plan to buy! We had a very short due diligence period, but that was no issue for these guys. They fit us in their schedule on very short notice and were such a pleasure to work with. Cary and Riley came to do the inspection and did a fantastic job walking us through the inspection to let us know what they found, and suggestions on how to fix all of the issues! Shout out to Cary, for answering all of our questions and having such a great personality! We truly appreciate you guys taking the time to help us through such a very stressful time. We HIGHLY recommend this company!

Termites are small creatures, but their impact on our lives is big. You may not believe them to be as big of a deal, but thousands of people whose homes are eaten by termites would disagree. Fortunately, you can take certain preventive measures to avoid termite infestations, and in this article, we will go over some of these.
To survive, termites need damp areas. So, the perfect place for them to exist in your home is anywhere affected by a leak. When there’s a moist area in your home due to the leak, termites slowly start building colonies and then start to eat your house away. So, one of the best ways to eliminate them and prevent their growth in the first place is by getting rid of a suitable environment for them to live in. So, if you ensure that your home’s pipes are leak-free and maintain your gutters, it will help; it’s even going to prevent the mold from growing, which will throw two strikes with one pitch.
Don’t we all love the look of a well-maintained garden? It increases the home's curb appeal and gives us great joy to look at. However, it can also draw termites because of all the vegetation they can reside in. So, we advise the homeowners to make a clear zone between the home and the landscaping project. This way, your garden will look pretty while protecting you from the infamous invasion of termites.
Termites simply adore wood and other wood-like materials such as paper or cardboard. So, having plenty of these things in your home puts you at a higher risk of termite invasion. So, try to store the wood-like materials off the ground as much as possible, and inspect all the wooden furniture and material in your home regularly to see if there are any signs of termites. Suppose you can try to store the extra wooden items you don’t use regularly away from the house.
Fresh air has many benefits and treats many problems in our homes; the same goes for termites. To prevent termite infestations, maintaining proper airflow regularly daily is essential. That’s because when there’s limited air circulation, the humidity inside the house can accumulate in especially wooden areas of the house and creates a great environment for termites. Sufficient airflow prevents that.
If you are planning a home renovation project, work with a reputable company that can prevent and handle termite infestation. These types of projects make your home very susceptible to termites. So, hiring someone with sufficient knowledge is critical, don’t skip this step.
Termites harm our homes more than you can ever think. If you are suspicious of a termite infestation and don’t know where to start or want to do a routine home inspection to see if everything is alright with your home, call the professional home inspectors of Atlanta Property Inspection. With our experience in the area, knowledge, and latest tools, our home inspectors are ready to perform termite inspections in Atlanta. Call us today to learn more.
