Have you had a chimney inspection/cleaning?

Be aware they may try to sell you a chimney liner or suggest brick Re-pointing which you may or may not need.

Last year, but did not use chimney, how would you know if you need or do not need those re-pointing or liners?

Depending on the sweep and specific fees charged, some inspections include an interior chimney video. No guarantee a less than ethical sweep may not BS you, come up with issues which may not exist, etc. However, an ethical sweep with good reviews and in business for an extended period may prove reliable, limit potential risks, etc.
