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.

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!

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 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!

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!

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.

What Home Inspectors Look for in a Kitchen

When home inspectors go through the details of your property, they will likely spend quite a bit of time in the kitchen. A lot of homeowners might be confused by this and wonder what the big deal is. Well, the truth is that the kitchen is a central part of the everyday life of your family, and it’s essential that all of the elements of your kitchen will be as safe and efficient as possible. At Atlanta Property Inspections, we provide professional inspection services for homeowners and businesses in Atlanta, Georgia, and surrounding metro area communities. If you’ve been considering making an investment in a reliable home inspection, then give us a call and find out what our experienced home inspectors can do for your house.

Why Are Kitchens Included in Professional Home Inspections?

Kitchens contain the largest number of appliances in the home. Additionally, a successful kitchen also relies on having a well-functioning plumbing system. Therefore, your electrical outlets, plumbing fixtures, pipes, and essential appliances will be a vital part of your overall inspection service.

Which Areas of the Kitchen Do Home Inspectors Pay Attention To?

The inspector will pay close attention to a lot of different areas of your kitchen in order to determine the condition of the property; this may include:

  • Countertops
  • Cabinets
  • Kitchen Sink
  • Plumbing Hardware
  • Refridgerator
  • Oven
  • Stove
  • Built-in Microwave
  • Dishwasher
  • Exhaust System or Range Hood
  • Electrical Outlets and Wiring
  • Lighting System
  • As Well as the Overall Safety of the Walls, Floor, Ceiling and Similar Structures

Be aware of these items when preparing for your inspection.

What Do Home Inspectors NOT Do?

While it’s important to know what to expect from your home inspection, it’s also essential that property owners understand what the inspectors won’t be doing. This will help you stay prepared for the appointment and avoid disappointment or miscommunication. For example, inspectors will often avoid moving appliances or furniture around to inspect if they are made inaccessible. Likewise, if you have any locks or codes needed to get inside an area of your pantry or for instance, it might not be inspected. Another important consideration is the fact that the inspector will not be able to check for air quality, code compliance confirmation, asbestos or lead exposure, and other specialized tests. If you’re unsure whether a specific concern of yours will be addressed during the inspection, then feel free to speak with your inspector before the appointment begins.
