Level 2 Chimney Inspection in Indianapolis
A Level 2 chimney inspection is the comprehensive, camera-assisted evaluation most homeowners need when something has changed with their chimney or their home. It goes well beyond a basic visual check and includes a video scan of the inside of the flue, without the demolition a Level 3 can involve. If you are buying or selling a home, have had a chimney fire, or have changed something about your heating system, a Level 2 is almost always the right one.

What a Level 2 Inspection Adds
A Level 2 inspection covers everything in a Level 1 and adds a camera scan of the flue and an examination of the accessible attic, basement, or crawlspace. It is the level most homeowners choose when they want the full health of their system, something a Level 1 cannot provide. Here is what it adds.
Full camera scan of the flue
Attic, basement and crawlspace check
Cracked or shifted flue tiles
Smoke chamber and liner condition
Clearances to combustibles

When you need a Level 2 inspection
A Level 2 inspection is recommended, and often expected, in a few specific situations. The most common is a real estate transaction: when a home is bought or sold, a Level 2 documents the true condition of the chimney for everyone involved. It is also the right inspection after a chimney fire, a severe storm, or any event that could have caused hidden damage, and whenever you change the system: a new appliance, a fuel switch, or a rebuild or relining. When nothing has changed and you are simply keeping up with routine maintenance, a Level 1 is often enough.
What a Level 2 inspection commonly finds
Because it looks inside the flue, a Level 2 regularly uncovers problems a visual check would miss: cracked or shifted flue tiles, often from a past chimney fire or years of heat and moisture, that can let heat and combustion gases reach the surrounding structure; heavy creosote glaze a standard sweep cannot remove; gaps where the smoke chamber meets the flue; a liner that is corroded or improperly sized; and water damage breaking the masonry down from within. Catching these on camera means they can be addressed before they become a fire or a leak.
Buying or selling a home in Indianapolis?
A chimney is one of the more expensive parts of a home to repair, so it deserves attention during a sale. A Level 2 inspection gives buyers confidence and gives sellers a clear, documented picture to share, which keeps the chimney from becoming a last-minute surprise in negotiations. Our technicians are experienced working with realtors and can often provide a prompt, photo-documented report on a tight closing timeline. If a home inspection flagged the chimney, this is the follow-up you need.
