They will also inspect to see to it there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any problems in the past with normal use of your fire place, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is much more comprehensive. This will include everything that is completed with a fundamental assessment with the addition of a cam or other tool to check the entire flue and inner chimney structure. It would additionally include an inspection of the attic and any locations surrounding the chimney.
