They will also check to see to it there is absolutely nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any type of problems in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more comprehensive. This will include everything that is executed with a fundamental evaluation with the addition of a camera or other tool to inspect the entire flue as well as inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic as well as any locations bordering the chimney.
