If you have never had any problems in the past with regular use of your fireplace, this is the advised inspection.

This will consist of everything that is completed with a standard assessment with the addition of a electronic camera or other device to inspect the entire flue and also inner chimney structure. It would additionally include an evaluation of the attic and also any locations bordering the chimney.
