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.
Thorough knowledge of items addressed in report. Home inspector was able to communicate any issues found with buyer and help explain the different items and their severity.
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!
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 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.
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
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.
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!
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.

Decorations are one of the most fun parts of holidays. With their bright colors, they provide joy to us. However, this may not be as fun to some as it is to us. Decorations are risky for pets as the bright colors can easily attract your pets to accidentally swallow them. To prevent this, you can take a few precautions, but we noticed that only a few people are aware of them. That’s why throughout this article, we will go through objects to keep out of reach, like plants, unsafe food, trees, and decorations, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help.
Although plants make up a big part of the holiday tradition, certain plants can be dangerous for your pets. Poinsettia, Holly and Mistletoe, Pine trees, and Amaryllis are some of these. Poinsettia ingestion or exposure can cause vomiting, drooling, diarrhea, and dermal and eye irritation. Holly and Mistletoe carry toxins so that they can cause gastrointestinal problems, low blood pressure, and breathing problems. Pine trees are especially dangerous for cats, and their results can be fatal if ingested. Finally, Amaryllis can cause salivation, vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, abdominal pain, lethargy, and tremors.
Holidays are the time for gatherings and parties, so naturally, there are lots of fruits, beverages, chocolates, nuts, and other snacks. Since there are lots of people in the house, naturally, things spill and end up on the floor, and as a homeowner, it’s hard to take notice of all those things in the middle of the rush. Unfortunately, consumption of most of these items can cause severe reactions in pets and can even be lethal. So, you can keep your pets away from the food areas through physical barriers or avoid risky food in the first place. Additionally, monitor their behavior throughout the day to see if everything is alright.
Many pets take an interest in big shiny objects, so Christmas trees obviously are very attractive for them. To prevent the choking risk, you can put a barrier around the tree, prevent using small decorations, and don’t leave any wrapping paper on the floor. Finally, to prevent any electric shocks, secure the wires of the Christmas lights somewhere unreachable by your pets.
Throughout this article, we tried to cover the main things to be careful of when you want to pet-proof your home for the holidays.
