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.

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.

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!

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!

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!

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!

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 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.

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!

If you have an old house, then you may know that there are so many parts that are different from modern houses. Some of these can be better, while others can be harmful. Asbestos is one of these toxic substances that have to be removed. However, many homeowners don’t know this mineral. So, throughout this article, we will go through what asbestos is, how to identify it in your house, how this mineral can impact your health, ways to safely remove it, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s see more about this interesting material in our house.

What is Asbestos and Why is It Used in My House?

When houses were built around the 1980s, many construction companies used asbestos in floors, ceilings, and many other parts of the house. Asbestos is a natural mineral, but unfortunately, it is carcinogenic. It is an effective insulator, and back then, people didn’t know it was harmful, so they used it in so many different parts. If your house is old, chances are, you may also have asbestos-containing parts in your home, and they need to be removed immediately.

How Can You Identify Asbestos?

We recommend that you do not try to identify the asbestos-containing part of the house by yourself. If there are any parts of your house that contain this mineral, you may damage it, causing it to show its carcinogenic effect. To see if you have any, you can find a professional inspection service that checks the parts of the house that may have this. If there is, they will warn you about this, and then you can take further action.

The Impacts of Asbestos on Your Health

As we said in the previous sections, asbestos is carcinogenic. This means that over a long period, they can lead to lung disease and cause cancer. Usually, unless a part of the house containing this mineral is not damaged, they do not cause significant damage. However, over the years, most of them become ruptured by themselves, causing these minerals to impact your health negatively.

How to Safely Remove Asbestos From Your House?

Again, like the way a person shouldn’t try to remove asbestos by themselves, they shouldn’t try to remove it as well. Any wrong action can result in significantly more significant damage to both your health and your house. So, if you have contacted an inspection service near you and they identified this mineral in your house, then contact an asbestos removalist to make your home safer today.
