A fundamental evaluation called a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without making use of any kind of special devices. A specialist will inspect all the basic structures that are accessible with a flashlight to make sure that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also inspect to make sure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any kind of concerns in the past with normal use of your fireplace, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is more comprehensive. This will include everything that is executed with a basic inspection with the addition of a cam or other device to check the whole flue and inner chimney structure. It would likewise include an evaluation of the attic and also any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of assessment carried out during a real estate purchase for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's additionally recommended if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any event which may have impacted the structure of the chimney.

A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but additionally consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry.
