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.
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.
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!
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.
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!
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.
I have hired this company doing inspection on the property that I was planning to purchase in Georgia. I’ve live in California when this was done. Frank Cooper and his team did a great job of inspection and giving me with every details. I really appreciate the advice and the report. Thank you
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!
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!

In today's society, creating an inclusive environment for everyone, especially for people with disabilities, is more critical than ever. This goes for every aspect of our daily lives, and the Americans with Disabilities Act ensures that public places as well as buildings conform to the ADA to create a better environment for people with disabilities. Failure to comply with ADA accessibility rules can result in costly lawsuits for property owners, particularly those in commercial or residential multi-family units. Unfortunately, there are certain accessibility issues that are frequently overlooked in buildings by owners and during inspections. Understanding ADA regulations and implementing essential improvements early on will help protect your investment and assure compliance with federal law, whether you're renovating an existing property or building a new one.
It is important to incorporate accessible features into your home, especially if you’re making a renovation.
Staircase and stairs accidents are one of the most common reasons behind injury. If you have a two-story home, you might wish to consider installing an elevator. Planning for a future home elevator does not have to be expensive; simply create a place for it and frame it out, then keep it empty until you need it. Even this can be a great way to incorporate accessibility to your house. Even if there’s no second story, there are usually at least a few steps that lead from garage slab level to the first floor. When this is the case, you should think about how you could replace these stairs with ramps.
This is a relatively easy step. Making your entrance more accessible is one of the most basic but important steps you can take. There are a variety of portable ramps on the market, and you can easily find a wheelchair-accessible ramp suitable for your home. If you want something more permanent, you may consider building a ramp. For ramps, there are certain dimensions that are strongly recommended.
Open space is critical for persons who use mobility aids like wheelchairs and walkers. In most cases, turning around is a big issue for people who use a wheelchair, so inside your home, a minimum of a 5-foot turn radius should be present so a full turn can be made by the person without colliding with objects such as walls and doorways.
In addition to steps, using the restroom can be dangerous and uncomfortable for those with disabilities. Installing step-in bathtubs is one of the finest ways to accomplish this. Without the need to step, you eliminate the chance of slipping and falling, making your experience safer and more enjoyable. Also, you can make the bathroom flooring slip-resistant to avoid falls.
Unfortunately, most of the time, property owners don’t even know what they’re violating when it comes to ADA. The only safe and sure way to know is to work with professionals home inspectors who are knowlegable in the area. That’s why professionals at Atlanta Property Inspection are here to help. During our home inspections, we can observe the specifics of what the law requires and tell you about the changes that need to be done. This way, you can avoid future potential ADA lawsuits. If you think your property might not be compliant with the ADA, call us today and learn more.
