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.
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
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 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.
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.
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!
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 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!
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!

Thermography is a technique that is used to examine a component that is functioning normally by utilizing an infrared camera to see if there are any parts of the structure that are working abnormally. It is a great, effective, and non-invasive evaluation method that can be used for many different fields and therefore is a very precious method in inspections. People who work with the thermography techniques using different tools are called thermographers. There are different levels of expertise, and Level II thermographers are trained to use equipment other thermographers aren’t. In this article, we will cover the importance of the thermography testing, its applications, and things level II thermographers are qualified to do.
It is a commonly known fact that heat is produced by resistance, and therefore electrical equipment also gets hot over time. If the temperatures get elevated within electrical enclosures, this may mean something is wrong with the system. Most of the time, they are basic indicators that fires can happen in the future. Luckily, by using thermography, the components of that electrical system can be viewed non-invasively, and problems can be identified before they create a serious scenario. The thermographic camera can identify parts that require replacement and detect heat escaping through insulation, so you’ll know when the unit has to be shut down immediately.
Leaks of any kind are the nightmare of every homeowner. Dealing with the consequences is tiring as well as costly. So, finding ways to detect leaks early on is crucial. When equipment or a structure is leaking, there will also be a heat exchange. This can be viewed with thermography equipment, and proper actions can be taken before anything bad happens. It’s especially important for detecting water leaks because a lot of water leaks can be quiet and undetectable until major water damage occurs. However, if you know that a leak is going on, you can just contact the professionals and notify them of the existence of a leak via thermographic testing's infrared technology, allowing for prompt repair.
Of course we’d like our appliances to last as long as possible. However, overheating is one of the enemies of this. It contributes greatly to the equipment deterioration, wear, and failure. With thermographic testing, you’ll know if any of your appliances are overheating, and you can take measures to reduce heat damage by detecting temperature spikes. This can prolong the life of equipment and cut preventable expenses.
