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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!

Termites are small creatures, but their impact on our lives is big. You may not believe them to be as big of a deal, but thousands of people whose homes are eaten by termites would disagree. Fortunately, you can take certain preventive measures to avoid termite infestations, and in this article, we will go over some of these.
To survive, termites need damp areas. So, the perfect place for them to exist in your home is anywhere affected by a leak. When there’s a moist area in your home due to the leak, termites slowly start building colonies and then start to eat your house away. So, one of the best ways to eliminate them and prevent their growth in the first place is by getting rid of a suitable environment for them to live in. So, if you ensure that your home’s pipes are leak-free and maintain your gutters, it will help; it’s even going to prevent the mold from growing, which will throw two strikes with one pitch.
Don’t we all love the look of a well-maintained garden? It increases the home's curb appeal and gives us great joy to look at. However, it can also draw termites because of all the vegetation they can reside in. So, we advise the homeowners to make a clear zone between the home and the landscaping project. This way, your garden will look pretty while protecting you from the infamous invasion of termites.
Termites simply adore wood and other wood-like materials such as paper or cardboard. So, having plenty of these things in your home puts you at a higher risk of termite invasion. So, try to store the wood-like materials off the ground as much as possible, and inspect all the wooden furniture and material in your home regularly to see if there are any signs of termites. Suppose you can try to store the extra wooden items you don’t use regularly away from the house.
Fresh air has many benefits and treats many problems in our homes; the same goes for termites. To prevent termite infestations, maintaining proper airflow regularly daily is essential. That’s because when there’s limited air circulation, the humidity inside the house can accumulate in especially wooden areas of the house and creates a great environment for termites. Sufficient airflow prevents that.
If you are planning a home renovation project, work with a reputable company that can prevent and handle termite infestation. These types of projects make your home very susceptible to termites. So, hiring someone with sufficient knowledge is critical, don’t skip this step.
Termites harm our homes more than you can ever think. If you are suspicious of a termite infestation and don’t know where to start or want to do a routine home inspection to see if everything is alright with your home, call the professional home inspectors of Atlanta Property Inspection. With our experience in the area, knowledge, and latest tools, our home inspectors are ready to perform termite inspections in Atlanta. Call us today to learn more.
