A basic assessment known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without making use of any special devices. A professional will check all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand held light to make certain that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will additionally examine to make sure there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have not had any type of problems in the past with regular use of your fireplace, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is much more in depth. This will include everything that is carried out with a standard assessment with the addition of a cam or other device to inspect the entire flue as well as interior chimney structure.
