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!

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.

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!

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!

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!

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.

6 Tasks Homeowners Can Do Between Yearly HVAC Inspections

When the summer you wait so patiently all year finally arrives with its intense heat, no one can doubt the most important system of your house becomes HVAC. With the right and functional air conditioning, the summer heat won’t be as big of an issue, and you can appreciate the beauty of summer while still being in contact with cool air. To ensure that your HVAC is functional, just like other systems inside your house, you have to make sure that they get regular maintenance. For their heating and cooling systems to operate properly, this step is crucial. If you want your HVAC system to last a long time, make sure to contact professionals at Atlanta Property Inspections to see if everything is alright, and between each routine maintenance, there are some things you can do to ensure the functionality of your HVAC system.

Replace Air Filters

Some pollutants are inevitable, even if your home is one of the cleanest. Replacing your air filters is recommended every three months, but you should do it more frequently if you have pets. You won’t believe how much the quality of your indoors will be changed; this is especially important for homeowners who have allergies or other respiratory problems. Also, your HVAC system will last longer when it is not forced to work as hard when your air filters are clean.

Clean Air Registers

A very fundamental element of HVAC systems are heat and air registers. Therefore, maintaining their cleanliness could be provided by vacuuming them using air filters. Also, this would decrease the amount of time inspectors would normally spend on the inspection.

Road to Attic

Going to the attic where ducts are visible is an important point many homeowners don’t know about. If you think air is escaping through any rips or tears in your ductwork, you can check this by going to the places where ducts are easily seen and trying to feel if heat or air is escaping. If you feel like it does, you may temporarily use duct tape.

Examine Your Bills

You should already make it a habit to examine your monthly bills, whether it is water or electricity. If you observe an issue with your air conditioning system, you might see an unexpected spike in your electricity bill. This allows for you to take early action by calling professionals.

Reduce the Number of Blockages in Your Venting

Observe your home to see if there are any vents that are exposed to the sun. Also, see if there’s any damage and if anything is obstructed.

Change Batteries of Your Thermostat

There are two types of thermostats: battery-operated and hardwired into your home's electricity supply. About once a year, you'll need to change the batteries in your thermostat as a homeowner. If you need help, don’t hesitate to contact professionals.

Making a Sensible Choice

Regular maintenance is crucial for every system inside your house, including your HVAC system. A great way to make sure the systems in your house are working properly is by scheduling regular home inspections with Atlanta Property Inspection. We are prepared to assist you in the process of conducting an inspection and give you additional information on things you need to know. Our home inspectors understand the significance of living in a safe and functional house, and therefore we'll try our best to address your inquiries regarding the state of your home.
