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!

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 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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

Wind mitigation inspection is one of the best services a homeowner living in a city where storms are frequent can take. However, only a few people know about this, so we have decided to put an end to it. Throughout this article, we will go through what a wind mitigation inspection is, what parts of the house are inspected, how it helps homeowners, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help you with your inspection. Well, let’s get going.

What Exactly Is Wind Mitigation Inspection?

There is a very common misunderstanding of the word wind mitigation. The simple definition is the process in which your home is inspected to see if it has the necessary structure or features to have more resistance to major winds like that of a storm.

What Parts of the House are Inspected?

When it comes to wind mitigation, home inspectors look at very specific things in the house. Let’s cover a few in this section to learn more about it together.

  • The first thing that many home inspectors look at is the roof's age, which primarily determines whether its current state can meet that of the government.
  • The second thing is the shape of your roof. Modern roofing systems have a very particular shape compared to the roofs of older houses. This is because it can resist stronger winds.
  • The last thing is the roof and foundation connection. This is to check if the roof is firmly held and will hold the house against those winds.

How Wind Mitigation Inspection Helps Homeowners

Of course, every cost brings many benefits with it. Let’s learn a few of them in this section.

  • The first one is safety. The whole purpose of inspecting is to see what parts should be fixed or added. This allows your house to be safe from a bad storm and brings comfort.
  • The second is savings. Did you know that your mitigation inspection can help you save money from your homeowner insurance? Yes, that's right. Many companies provide additional discounts to homeowners that use this service. This allows significant money saving for you in the long term.
  • By seeing the damage ahead of time, you can prevent it from worsening in the future and save yourself repair bills.

There are so many benefits, but we listed some above. However, for all these benefits to apply to your house, you need the right company for you.
