A standard inspection known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without using any kind of special tools. A technician will inspect all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to make sure that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also examine to make certain there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any concerns in the past with routine use of your fire place, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is more comprehensive. This will consist of everything that is completed with a fundamental assessment with the addition of a cam or other device to inspect the whole flue and also interior chimney structure. It would likewise include an assessment of the attic and also any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of evaluation done during a property transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any event which might have affected the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you've made a great deal of changes in the way you use your fireplace, then the more thorough evaluation is likewise recommended.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations performed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also includes the removal of portions of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This sort of inspection is only carried out in severe situations when it is definitely needed in order to validate the security of the chimney.
