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!
This was my first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections. Alex Sozonov was my inspector. Very oriented details and willing to explained all questions with professional knowledge. Report came into my email box late night. Clearly, it has been covered all details. Plus, show up on time.
Thorough knowledge of items addressed in report. Home inspector was able to communicate any issues found with buyer and help explain the different items and their severity.
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!
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!
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!
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.
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 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.

When homeowners see a termite in their house, they tend to get worried and even stressed as these little creatures can cause much damage to your property that you won’t be able to notice. However, there isn’t anything to worry about. Throughout this article, we will go through what termites are, where they come from, how to prevent them from entering your house, what to do if they enter your home, and how Atlanta Property Inspection is involved.
Termites are one of the insects that cause the most damage to your house. They are tiny and can’t be easily noticed unless looked at carefully. Like all insects, they look for the best place to get their food, a suitable environment like moisture and water. So, some of them live in your house. How can they cause damage to your home? Termites like to feed off of anything that contains cellulose. Cellulose is found in your wallpaper, wood, books, etc. So, termites can quickly eat your house up.
There are many types of termites in which each has its way of entering and colonizing a house. For example, a subterranean termite likes to live underground, and for them to enter, they must find a hole in a wood or door frame in the ground. Another example is dry wood termites. These termites, as they sound, love it when they find cracked or opened wood in a house. They close the door to themselves throughout winter and use the area to colonize. As they have more and more termites, the risk to your home increases more than ever.
Of course, we aren’t hopeless. We have a lot we can do to prevent these tiny insects from eating our houses:
If you locate a termite colony and believe it has the potential to destroy significant parts of the house, you can call a pest control company. This can help you remove all the termites currently in the home, possibly preventing future ones from entering that location.
Termites are tiny insects that every homeowner needs to be careful about. Thankfully, at Atlanta Property Inspection, we are here to prevent any termites from entering your house. With our professional home inspectors, modern equipment, and dedication, termites are no longer a problem for us. Call us today to learn more about us and our services.
