They will also examine to see to it there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any type of concerns in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is more comprehensive. This will include everything that is carried out with a standard assessment with the addition of a electronic camera or other tool to examine the entire flue and internal chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic and also any areas bordering the chimney.
