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.
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!
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.
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!
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.
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.
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 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.
Jeremy was the best to work with! He was on time, very thorough in his explanations of his findings, and took time with my clients to make sure he answered all of their questions. He was detailed, and provided follow up when we needed additional questions answered. He went above and beyond! Best, quality, customer service I’ve seen in a long time! I’ll recommend him and Atlanta Property Inspections every time!

Just like how you would like to have a regular check-up for your health to see if your overall health is well and if something is wrong, you can take measures to improve it; the same goes for your house. Your house also needs to have regular check-ups through home maintenance, which inspects various aspects of your home, including exterior, plumbing, electricity, security, HVAC, furnishings, etc. This way, if there are any malfunctions in your home, they can be detected early and keep your house in good condition while saving money. So, what are some of the things you should check during your regular home maintenance?
Take a stroll around the house's exterior to check for the following:
Chipped paint is one of the things that make your home look very old and deteriorated. Paint has a protective function against water damage and rods in addition to aesthetic value. So, take chipped paint seriously and either paint the chipped area yourself or hire a professional to do it for you. In addition to paint, check your gutters very carefully and make sure it's not clogged up with leaves and debris. The gutters control the amount of humidity that your home is exposed to, and if they are clogged, you may face a leak, which can be dangerous. Before a new season starts, always make sure to check your gutters and clean them.
Regular plumbing system inspections should be one of the highlights of your maintenance list. Make sure to visually assess the area and watch out for any indicators of damage to your plumbing system. See if there are any active leaks or leak stains in your walls or ceiling, and if you do, call a professional before the issue grows bigger. Another important system you should check out is your electricity and HVAC. For your electricity, watch out for clearly damaged wiring, hot outlets or switch plates, any discoloration of sockets, and flickering lights. As for your HVAC system, call a professional for your yearly check-up so the technician can inspect for any damage and clean the furnace.
Make sure to test your security system regularly because nothing is more important than your safety. Additionally, in case of an emergency, always make sure your smoke detectors are functional.
Of course, home maintenance and assessment is a very beneficial process for your home, but to the untrained eye, it can be hard to catch all the details. That's why calling professional home inspectors of Atlanta Property Inspection is a brilliant idea whenever you want a thorough assessment of your home.
