A standard assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without using any type of special devices. A specialist will check all the standard structures that are accessible with a light to make certain that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also check to see to it there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any issues in the past with normal use of your fire place, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is much more extensive. This will consist of everything that is completed with a basic inspection with the addition of a camera or other tool to check the whole flue and also internal chimney structure. It would additionally include an assessment of the attic and also any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of assessment carried out during a real estate transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's likewise advised if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any kind of event which might have affected the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you have actually made a lot of changes in the way you utilize your fireplace, then the more thorough evaluation is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the assessments carried out in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry.
