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.

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.

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!

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 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.

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!

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!

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.

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!

Inspecting the Roof

The roof is essential to our house, protecting us from rain, snow, sun, and many other things. So, it is important for us to regularly check roofs to ensure there are no leaks or any other problems that can negatively impact the daily work of the house. Knowing that roof inspection is a crucial service that allows people to be more comfortable in their houses, so we gathered this article for you. Throughout this article, we will go through four inspection methods you can perform: looking for algae, and moss, checking for old or damaged shingles, inspecting the roof closely, and investigating the attic, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s start learning.

Looking For Algae and Moss

The first way to check your roof starts by checking the ground. Walk around the house and check to see if your roof has leaves or other forms of blockage in there. If there is, and you can see it, make sure to clear it. There can be moisture buildup in the blockage which can impact the structure of the roof. The moisture can even cause moss known to soak water easily, which will ruin your roof. If you see that you have moss buildup, apply moss killer and brush those parts with a broom.

Checking for Missing Or Damaged Shingles

The next step we encourage people to do is to get a ladder and look at the shingles on their roofs. Check to see if there are any missing or damaged parts. Shingles are a very important part of the roof. They prevent the roof from leaking, and without them, you would easily feel the wind whenever it blows on the roof.

Inspecting the Roof Closely

While you are already on a ladder, we recommend you do a general check of the place as well. Look at the chimney, vent pipes, and dormers. If you don’t see anything unusual, then skip to the next section. If you don’t know the usual looks of these places, then call a roof inspection service today.

Investigating the Attic

Lastly, if you have one, check your attic. After heavy rain, there can be signs of water leakage in the roof. If you see that there are any signs of leaks or water in the group of your attic, immediately call an experienced home inspection service today to get your roof inspection.
