They will also inspect to make sure there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have never had any problems in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more comprehensive. This will include everything that is completed with a fundamental inspection with the addition of a camera or other tool to inspect the entire flue as well as internal chimney structure. It would additionally include an assessment of the attic and any locations bordering the chimney.
