If you have not had any concerns in the past with regular use of your fireplace, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is 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 and interior chimney structure.
