A standard inspection called a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without the use of any special tools. A service technician will examine all the standard structures that are accessible with a light to make sure that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also check to make sure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any kind of issues in the past with normal use of your fireplace, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is more detailed. This will include everything that is carried out with a basic assessment with the addition of a cam or other device to check the entire flue and interior chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic and any locations bordering the chimney.
