A basic inspection referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without making use of any special devices. A specialist will check all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand held flashlight to make sure that there is no damage or deterioration. They will likewise inspect to see to it there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any problems in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is more comprehensive. This will include everything that is carried out with a fundamental inspection with the addition of a electronic camera or other device to check the entire flue as well as inner chimney structure. It would also include an evaluation of the attic as well as any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of assessment carried out during a property transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential property.
