A basic assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without using any special tools. A technician will check all the basic structures that are accessible with a light to see to it that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also examine to make certain there is absolutely nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any kind of concerns in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is extra in depth. This will include everything that is completed with a standard evaluation with the addition of a cam or other tool to check the whole flue and also inner chimney structure. It would also include an evaluation of the attic and also any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of assessment done during a property transaction for the sale or purchase of a home. It's also recommended if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any type of event which may have impacted the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you have actually made a great deal of adjustments in the way you utilize your fire place, then the more thorough assessment is also advised.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations executed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, yet also consists of the removal of portions of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry.
