They will also inspect to make certain there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have never had any kind of issues in the past with routine use of your fire place, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is much more comprehensive. This will consist of everything that is carried out with a basic assessment with the addition of a camera or other tool to check the whole flue and also internal chimney structure. It would likewise include an assessment of the attic as well as any locations bordering the chimney.
