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.

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!

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!

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!

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!

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 Importance of Smoke Detectors in Your Home

Smoke detectors can save lives. However, many people consider this device to be useless in their houses. To inform them about the importance of these detectors, we gathered some information. Throughout this article, we will go through how smoke detectors can save you, the seven benefits of installing a smoke detector in your home, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help.

How Can Smoke Detectors Save You?

One home fire-related injury occurs every 53 minutes. Fire hazards are common problems that every homeowner can face. Thankfully, modern technology allows us to have detectors that identify smoke and save lives. Smoke detectors can alert the residents inside a property of rising smoke and significantly reduce the chance of injury. If someone is worried about facing a fire, they should install smoke detectors in all the rooms and maintain them regularly. Make sure to change the batteries. Over 90% of houses in the U.S. have smoke detectors, but only 23% work because of dead batteries. So, if you want to provide a safe environment for your loved ones, install a smoke detector. Learn more about the benefits of these detectors by calling a home inspection service today.

7 Benefits of Installing a Smoke Detector in Your Home

  1. Early Detection: The primary goal of a smoke detector is to alert the residents in the presence of fire in its early stages. This is also its primary benefit. With early detection, you will have much time to protect your loved ones.
  2. Preventing Fast Spread of Fire: With early notification, you will also have the time to see whether the fire is escalating quickly and evacuate safely if needed.
  3. Identifying Fire Types: Advanced detectors can also identify whether the smoke is coming from burning fires or invisible flames, which also have the potential to harm residents.
  4. Protecting Your Family: Our loved ones are our priority. Install a smoke detector to help the children, elderly, friends, and family in case of an uncontrollable fire.
  5. Constant Monitoring: Fires can occur anytime during the day. If there is a sudden fire late at night, you might not be able to notice it immediately. However, these detectors work day and night to see if any smoke is inside.
  6. Easy Maintenance: There is little needed to install and maintain a smoke detector. Make sure to replace its batteries once a year and clean them to ensure they are reliable.
  7. Benefits It Provides With New Technology: With the new technology, these smoke detectors can now offer other features like carbon monoxide levels, phone alerts, and interconnected alarms to enhance safety. If you would like to learn whether your smoke detectors are working properly, contact Atlanta Property Inspection today.
