They will also inspect to make certain there is absolutely nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any type of problems in the past with regular use of your fire place, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is more in depth. This will include everything that is executed with a basic assessment with the addition of a electronic camera or other tool to examine the entire flue and interior chimney structure. It would also include an evaluation of the attic and any areas bordering the chimney.
