A basic assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without making use of any kind of special tools.

They will also check to ensure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any concerns in the past with normal use of your fire place, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is more detailed. This will include everything that is carried out with a fundamental inspection with the addition of a cam or other tool to check the entire flue as well as interior chimney structure. It would likewise include an inspection of the attic and also any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of evaluation executed during a property deal for the sale or purchase of a property.
