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.
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
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.
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!
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!
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!
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.
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!
This was our first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections, Frank Cooper was the lead inspector and he was inspecting a new construction one bedroom plus den in Alpharetta for a buyer client of ours. The inspection report was both detailed and comprehensive. We have tried out a few premium home inspection companies over the past year, looking for a good additional inspection resource, and based on our experience with Frank Cooper, I think we have found it.
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!

About every one in four Americans is at risk of having rising radon levels in their houses. This is a major number and can cause significant damage. However, not many people know about this in their houses. So, we have decided to end this. Throughout this article, we will go through what radon is, the reasons to test for radon in your house such as health hazards, how common it is, how it can affect someone, the price for testing, possible future costs, how easy it is to fix it, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s start.
Radon is a radioactive gas known to cause lung cancer among many people. It doesn’t have a color or smell, so it is hard to detect it in your house without professional equipment. This gas enters your house through the decay of uranium in the ground that moves up into the house.
As we said in the previous section, radon causes health hazards, but how? Radon is inhaled, and when it is, it releases radiation. And this radiation causes damage to the DNA in the cells of the lung tissues. As time passes, this causes genetic mutations leading to lung cancer.
Radon is a very common problem that not many people know. However, it is a common reason for some of the worst lung problems. 1 in 6 deaths of lung cancer is attributed to radon in Canada.
Getting lung cancer isn’t just from using too much tobacco. It can be from your house as well. Not taking early precautions will make you susceptible to getting diseases early in your life and can ruin your motivation.
Radon testing is more affordable than you think. Not only will this test allow you to take precautions, but you can also save yourself from major health hazards in the future.
If you don’t take precautions, later on, you will be forced to change your house immediately. You can’t sell it easily due to the high levels of radon. You may need to constantly check in with your doctor to see if there are any problems with your health.
All you need to avoid all the problems related to this gas is to install a radon reduction system. This takes less than a day and is cheap compared to the value it provides. However, you would need a trustworthy home inspection service to check if you have radon in your house.
This article went over the reasons to test your home for radon and ways you can avoid health problems that come with it. There are many health issues related to radon; therefore, you must identify them. Thankfully with a trusted inspection service, you are in safe hands. At Atlanta Property Inspection, we are motivated daily by our dedication to providing you a safe and secure house. With our experienced home inspectors, affordable price plans, and dedication, home inspection was never more beneficial.
