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.
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.
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!
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.
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 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!
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.
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!
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!

About every one in four Americans is at risk of having rising radon levels in their houses. This is a major number and can cause significant damage. However, not many people know about this in their houses. So, we have decided to end this. Throughout this article, we will go through what radon is, the reasons to test for radon in your house such as health hazards, how common it is, how it can affect someone, the price for testing, possible future costs, how easy it is to fix it, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s start.
Radon is a radioactive gas known to cause lung cancer among many people. It doesn’t have a color or smell, so it is hard to detect it in your house without professional equipment. This gas enters your house through the decay of uranium in the ground that moves up into the house.
As we said in the previous section, radon causes health hazards, but how? Radon is inhaled, and when it is, it releases radiation. And this radiation causes damage to the DNA in the cells of the lung tissues. As time passes, this causes genetic mutations leading to lung cancer.
Radon is a very common problem that not many people know. However, it is a common reason for some of the worst lung problems. 1 in 6 deaths of lung cancer is attributed to radon in Canada.
Getting lung cancer isn’t just from using too much tobacco. It can be from your house as well. Not taking early precautions will make you susceptible to getting diseases early in your life and can ruin your motivation.
Radon testing is more affordable than you think. Not only will this test allow you to take precautions, but you can also save yourself from major health hazards in the future.
If you don’t take precautions, later on, you will be forced to change your house immediately. You can’t sell it easily due to the high levels of radon. You may need to constantly check in with your doctor to see if there are any problems with your health.
All you need to avoid all the problems related to this gas is to install a radon reduction system. This takes less than a day and is cheap compared to the value it provides. However, you would need a trustworthy home inspection service to check if you have radon in your house.
This article went over the reasons to test your home for radon and ways you can avoid health problems that come with it. There are many health issues related to radon; therefore, you must identify them. Thankfully with a trusted inspection service, you are in safe hands. At Atlanta Property Inspection, we are motivated daily by our dedication to providing you a safe and secure house. With our experienced home inspectors, affordable price plans, and dedication, home inspection was never more beneficial.
