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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 5 Most Common Home Inspection Issues

Buying a house isn’t just financially important, it is important because it is where most memories are built. Think about it. Where do most of your memories take place? For this reason, having a safe and problem-free home is important. Without a professional home inspection, your house may have the potential of facing serious problems that will ruin all your nice memories. Throughout this article, we will go through the 5 most common home inspection issues, some services, and how we can help.

Some Important Areas to Get Checked in Your House

Certain things must be checked to avoid any difficult future problems. One of them is grade sloping. Checking this part of the house will allow the person to understand whether or not a secret water issue will wait for the homeowner during a wet season. If this is left unnoticed, grade sloping can cause a wall to rot and mold to set up on it, causing really expensive repair issues. The second most common serious problems include faulty wiring. Most homebuyers try to check it themselves; however, they commonly miss it. If you have an older house, then it is even greater damage. The extensive cords may be exposed, leading to a really common problem of house fires. Although unless there is a physical action to wire it won’t cause a problem, if there is even a slight one without you noticing it, it can lead to the destruction of the whole house.

What More Could There Possibly Be?

Another serious part of a housing inspection is the roofing material. The roof is a really crucial part of the house because it is the main cause of water not going into the house. It is so easy to miss the point that not getting your roof checked may cause future problems. If a roof houses a problem, without revealing the place, the patchwork may be more than just a temporary relief. Water may seep inside and there may be extra expensive repair services needed.

Why Should I Get it Checked?

Most of the previous homeowners defer the maintenance to you. For most, that’s why they sell the house, to get out of the expenses. Open your eyes fully and be extra cautious about these things. No one wants to end up paying for a problem with used equipment especially if these can end up risking your health and happy memories. Avoid the risk and call us today.
