Why chimney level 2 inspection in West Hollywood looks different here
Winters here are mild, so many fireplaces sit unused for a long time and then get lit on the first cold night. A gas unit needs its burner and vent checked, and an older brick one needs a look for earthquake cracks, before that first fire. A typical visit covers 360° video camera scan of entire flue interior, full inspection of accessible portions per nfpa 211, and booked around escrow dates for a home sale, so the report reflects the chimney's actual condition instead of a boilerplate estimate.
