A standard assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without using any type of special tools. A service technician will check all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand held flashlight to see to it that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also examine to make certain there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any problems in the past with normal use of your fire place, this is the advised inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more extensive. This will include everything that is carried out with a fundamental evaluation with the addition of a electronic camera or other tool to inspect the entire flue and internal chimney structure. It would additionally include an evaluation of the attic and any areas bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of assessment done during a property transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any event which may have impacted the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you've made a lot of changes in the way you use your fireplace, then the more comprehensive examination is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but additionally includes the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry.
