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.

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!

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!

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!

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!

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.

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!

Home is our comfort zone, and we wouldn’t want anything to happen to it. However, despite our wants, our houses still face major problems, most of which can come from water intrusions. Despite this, we realize that few people know what water intrusions are and the precautions to take against them. So, that’s why throughout this article, we will go through what water intrusions are, what causes them, what you should do against them, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s get started.

What are Water Intrusions?

Water intrusions are when water enters a building and causes damage. There are many forms of damage that we can see; some of them include molds or ceiling damage. However, let’s look at what causes these problems in our buildings.

What Causes Water Intrusions?

Many things can cause water intrusions. In this section, let’s list a few of them here. This way, you can see if any unusual things are happening in these places.

  • Roofs - roofs age, and they don’t have the same functionality as they did before. So, they start water to be entered from the places damaged.
  • Pipes - pipes are the leading cause of water intrusions. If a pipe starts leaking inside or outside a house, it will cause your water pressure to be messed up and your water flows to malfunction.
  • Basement flooding - this is the worst a homeowner can face. You would have to check in constantly to see whether there is anything unusual in the basement. If there is flooding, this can damage the infrastructure of the house if action is not immediately taken.

What Should I Do Against Water Intrusions?

We have to be cautious of the potential damages that can be caused by intrusions. So, everyone must take precautions. So what should you do? Well, it is really simple. First, ensure that your property and flood insurance are renewed properly monthly. Ensure you know basic skills like turning off the main valve in case of an emergency. Lastly, move whatever you think may be important to you into a place away from a location with a water location and put it in a safe place. There are so many more, but did you know that you can prevent water intrusions with regular home inspections to your house?
