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.

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 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.

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!

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.

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.

What Is Involved in a Home Inspection?

Are you in the process of buying a home and want to ensure that the condition of the property is in top shape before finalizing the sale? Do you already own an older home, but you’re concerned about the safety of your existing plumbing or electrical system? Then a professional home inspection is a great way to put your mind at ease and ensure that you receive the maximum return on your investment. The team at Atlanta Property Inspections is ready to help you achieve your goals. Our experienced home inspectors offer reliable home inspection services for clients in Atlanta, Georgia, and surrounding metro area cities. If you are feeling apprehensive about your appointment and want to know what to expect when the home inspectors arrive, read below so you can stay prepared.

Electrical System

This will include your breakers, electrical wiring, receptacles, conductors, light fixtures, outlets, and any other components of your system, which will ensure protection from fires and other potential health hazards.

Plumbing System

Your family will rely on your pipes and plumbing fixtures for a wide range of daily activities. It’s important to know that your plumbing system is in good shape. Your inspector should check for warning signs like loos fittings, low water pressure, rusted pipes, gutter repairs, and similar issues.

Heating and Cooling System

If you want to stay warm in the winter and cold in the summer without paying a fortune in monthly utility costs, then the HVAC system needs to be a major focus during your inspection. They will take a good look at the condition of your unit, as well as vents, filters, and other essential parts.

Structural Integrity

A house can look spectacular on the surface, but beneath the paint and pretty siding could lurk dangerous structural problems. Our team will inspect the framing, foundation, and other vital structural areas of your property to make sure that the house is sound and safely ready for occupation.

Roof

A bad roof can quickly ruin an otherwise beautiful home. Hidden leaks in the roof can cause massive water damage, encourage the development of toxic mold and leave your house susceptible to insect and pest infestations. We will check your roof shingles, skylights, and chimneys to make sure they will adequately protect your home from the elements.

Insulation and Ventilation

While the ventilation system and insulation are probably the most neglected part of your property, they play an important role in the safety and wellbeing of your property. Our property inspectors will pay close attention to your insulation, windows, attic, and exhaust systems for signs of trouble.
