A standard assessment known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without the use of any kind of special tools. A technician will examine all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand-held light to see to it that there is no damage or degeneration. 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 kind of problems in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised evaluation.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is more in depth. This will include everything that is executed with a fundamental evaluation with the addition of a video camera or other device to check the entire flue and interior chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic as well as any locations bordering the chimney.
