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 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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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!

Childproofing Your Home

Unfortunately, a significant number of children are injured every year due to preventable home accidents. They are curious due to their age and nature, so they can quickly put themselves in relatively dangerous situations. Since our children are our most valuable treasures, we prepared this guide to provide you with some tips on making your home a safer place for your children.

  • Medications

Many babies and toddlers like to put small objects into their mouths. Especially if these objects are colorful, they get more attraction from toddlers. Children who may want to eat the pills can confuse many medications with candy. Since this action can be highly toxic and dangerous for them, you should keep all your medications in a cabinet and lock them, so your child doesn’t have access to them.

  • Attachment of Furniture

Children like to shake various types of furniture, and if oversized items like a wardrobe or a cabinet aren’t mounted to the wall, this creates the risk of falls. So, always ensure the complete attachment of large furniture pieces to prevent falls.

  • Safety Latches

Kitchen drawers tend to store a lot of items. Some common ones are spoons, knives, forks, and cabinets in which many people put their detergent for the washing machine. It would help if you used safety latches to prevent these toxic and sharp materials from harming the kids.

  • As soon as your child can walk, installing safety gates is a wise option.

  • Outlets

Electrocution is a big issue for many homeowners. Since many kids are familiar with the concept of electricity, they can easily electrocute themselves by putting their hands or metal items inside the outlets. To prevent this, you can buy covers for your outlets or install safety switches.

  • Always place different barriers wherever there is a heating source, like a fireplace.

This already goes without saying; any place that has direct contact with the heat or the fire should be covered with barriers.

  • If the electrical cords of your devices are worn out, change them.

  • Install or replace your smoke detectors.

  • Corner covers for the sharp surfaces in your house.

Many kids tend to injure themselves by hitting the sharp edges of various furniture and surfaces. As a result, you should cover the corners of these places.

  • Guards on Windows

Falls are a common hazard for kids. When they see open windows, they may try to throw themselves and end up seriously harmed. So, it’s crucial to put guards on the windows.

  • If you have water containers, you should drain them to avoid drowning.

  • Always keep a first aid kit in your house.
