Level 1 2 3 inspection — the three-tier inspection framework defined by NFPA 211. Level 1 is a visual check of accessible areas. Level 2 adds video scan of the flue and is required when selling a home or after a chimney fire. Level 3 involves removing materials to access concealed areas.
Why this matters for Fort Worth homeowners
Understanding the basics of level 1 2 3 inspection helps you read inspection reports, evaluate quotes, and ask sharper questions when a chimney repair pro is on site. It’s the difference between trusting a stranger and verifying their work.
When you’ll see this term
