A fundamental evaluation called a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without the use of any kind of special tools. A specialist will inspect all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand held light to see to it that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also check to make sure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have not had any problems in the past with routine use of your fire place, this is the advised inspection.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is much more extensive. This will consist of everything that is executed with a standard evaluation with the addition of a video camera or other device to check the whole flue as well as inner chimney structure. It would likewise include an inspection of the attic and also any locations bordering the chimney.
