If you have not had any kind of issues in the past with routine use of your fire place, this is the suggested inspection.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is extra comprehensive. This will include everything that is carried out with a basic assessment with the addition of a video camera or other device to inspect the whole flue and also inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic as well as any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of assessment carried out during a property transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential or commercial property.
