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 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!
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!
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.
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!
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.
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.
Atlanta property inspections gave me a very competitor quote and stuck to it for final pricing. They were able to get someone out to do the inspection so quickly. Frank and James were very thorough and helpful during the process they encouraged me to look at what they found, the good and bad, so I knew exactly what I am buying. I couldn't have asked for a better inspection experience!
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!
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!

A lot of thought and effort goes into the home-buying process. As homebuyers, you need to think about a lot of aspects and factors in a home’s condition. Most of the time, the obvious factors that a lot of people consider are structural, aesthetic, and overall layout. However, with the help of a home inspector, the aspects of homes that most people don’t even think about are considered, and their conditions are brought to the surface. One of these aspects is the environmental considerations. Beyond the nice exterior and electric and plumbing systems, a home inspection should evaluate the surrounding environment, as it may have an impact on your health, safety, and future costs. In this article, we will go over some of the environmental factors you should consider as a future homebuyer.
Water contamination is a serious issue that can significantly impact your health. This issue is particularly important if the water on that property comes from a well and not the municipal water system. If this is the case, your inspector can explain the situation, and water testing can be done. This way, you can rule out a lot of possible drinking dangers, including chemicals, heavy metals, mold and fungus, and other contaminants.
Another important environmental factor is the air quality. When inspecting a home, the inspectors will assess the HVAC system not only to see if it functions but also to see if there are dirty filters or poor ventilation, which are known to reduce air quality. When the air quality inside the house isn’t ideal or if the house isn’t properly ventilated, mold and mildew can grow in various places, which are known for the health issues they cause. Bad air quality also makes it ideal for pests to grow. So, if the report shows that the air quality inside the house isn’t good, you should think twice before your big decision.
Asbestos was previously a common building material, especially before the 1980s, thanks to its many advantages. Later, it was found to be in correlation with various respiratory issues and even malignancies. So, the recently built houses no longer include asbestos. However, if you are thinking about buying an older property, this can show up as a bad surprise later. Since asbestosis is a major health hazard, if the home inspector in Cumming suspects its presence, proper testing can be done and experts can handle its removal. As a homeowner, it’s very important for you to consider the existence of this substance, especially on older properties.
If you are thinking of buying the next place to protect your investment as well as your health, you should take environmental issues that home inspection reports show you seriously. Thankfully, home inspection services reveal the hidden problems with a thorough examination and let you determine what you’re going to do next clearly. If you are looking for a reliable home inspection company that can provide you with the services you are seeking, this is where your research ends. At Atlanta Property Inspections, we offer comprehensive, trustworthy reports so you can make confident, well-informed decisions. Call us today and schedule your appointment.
