A fundamental evaluation referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual examination without the use of any type of special devices. A specialist will check all the basic structures that are accessible with a flashlight to see to it that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also inspect to see to it there is absolutely nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have not had any concerns in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more extensive. This will consist of everything that is completed with a basic evaluation with the addition of a electronic camera or other tool to inspect the whole flue and also interior chimney structure. It would likewise include an assessment of the attic and also any locations bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the sort of evaluation carried out during a real estate transaction for the sale or purchase of a property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any type of event which might have affected the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you have actually made a lot of adjustments in the way you utilize your fireplace, then the more thorough examination is also suggested.
