Frank Cooper and his team from Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc were excellent! They arrived on time  and thoroughly inspected all areas of the property I was considering renting. They found things that needed to be repaired by the landlord before we signed the lease. Frank reviewed his findings with us. He explained all of his concerns, and he patiently answered all of our questions. Then the next day I received a very detailed report that included several pictures and detailed explanations. If you want a kind, knowledgeable, and thorough inspector, don’t hesitate to call Frank Cooper with Atlanta Property. I would highly recommend him! Truly a 5 star company!

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!

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.

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!

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, 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.

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.

What Sets Apart a Great Home Inspection Company

When shopping for a new home, most buyers focus on the obvious: Is the flooring wood, stone, or carpet? Do the countertops sparkle like the ones in a model home? Does the backyard slope in a way that will send every rainstorm rushing toward the foundation? These are all fair questions, but they only scratch the surface.

Beneath and beyond the paint, trim, and landscaping lies the real story of a home’s condition. And that’s a story best told by a trained professional. In fact, this is why lenders typically require a professional home inspection before finalizing a loan. But here’s the tricky part: there are inspection companies that go through the motions and those that bring true expertise and reassurance.

So, what sets apart a great home inspection company in Atlanta? This article addresses exactly that.

Depth of Knowledge and Certification

A top-tier inspector isn’t just someone who can spot a leaky faucet. They’re trained to understand systems from the ground up: electrical wiring, HVAC performance, roofing materials, grading, plumbing, insulation, and beyond. Once they've got everything down, they prove themselves and get certified.

The gold standard is certification through professional organizations such as the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI). This credential signals that the inspector has undergone rigorous training, adheres to a code of ethics, and is committed to continuing education in a constantly evolving industry.

When choosing an inspector, always ask if they are certified, and by whom. It’s reassurance that the person combing through your potential new home knows what to look for and how to explain it in plain English.

Clear and Actionable Reporting

Even the sharpest inspector is little help if their findings are buried in a confusing or overly technical document. Great home inspectors deliver more than just a checklist; they provide a detailed, organized, AND easy-to-understand report that explains what’s working, what needs attention now, and what could become a problem in the future.

Communication and Professionalism

More generally, a great inspector understands that buying a home can be nerve-wracking and makes an effort to communicate professionally. They'll take time to walk the buyer through the findings, answer questions without jargon, provide context for their observations, and remain patient and approachable throughout.

Professionalism also extends to punctuality, appearance, and respect for the property. You’re trusting this person to comb through every corner of a house you might call home - so it matters that they treat the process, and your time, with respect.

Tools and Technology

While experience and expertise are important factors, the right tools elevate an inspection. Things like moisture meters, infrared cameras, and drones for roof inspections aren’t gimmicks; they're valuable in helping inspectors uncover hidden issues. A company that invests in modern equipment is demonstrating a commitment to thoroughness and accuracy.

Local Experience

Atlanta’s homes are as diverse as its neighborhoods and people. Whether it's the historic bungalows in Grant Park, the sleek Midtown condos, or the sprawling suburban builds in Alpharetta, every type of property presents its own inspection challenges.

A local home inspection company with decades of experience in the Atlanta area will have seen it all - and will know what common problems to look for in each style of home.

Plus, they'll be familiar with local building codes and regulations.
