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 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!
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.
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.
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!
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.
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 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.
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!

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.
