The work you see.
The care you don’t.
A sweep and an inspection answer different questions. One addresses deposits; the other examines condition. Understanding both is the beginning of looking after the whole chimney.

LOCAL RESEARCH / Delaney Park
Local exposure
Orange County's storm-repair guidance states that window and exterior door replacements always require a permit, that mechanical repairs including air-conditioning replacement or major ductwork repairs need one, and that replacing broken glass in an existing frame without changing its size or type does not. It also warns that unlicensed contractors may try to take advantage of residents after a storm and that work done without a permit may not be covered by homeowners' insurance. Worth reading before arranging chimney, flue and fireplace work on storm damage in Delaney Park, and worth telling the insurer about in advance.
Source ↗Local context
The U.S. Fire Administration's heating fire safety guidance is to maintain heating equipment and chimneys by having them cleaned and inspected each year by a professional. That is a national prevention recommendation about maintenance intervals, not a local code requirement and not a finding about a particular flue. Ask what an inspection would actually cover, what would be documented, and what a report would say about the condition found.
Source ↗Planning your work
The City of Orlando's permitting pages state that the State of Florida requires a permit for most projects, even small ones, and that a project valued above $5,000 needs a Notice of Commencement filed with the Orange County Comptroller before work starts. For chimney, flue and fireplace work, ask which permit type the scope falls under before anything is ordered. Delaney Park sits inside Orange County, and some addresses near the city line are unincorporated and permitted by the county instead — confirm which building department covers the address. This is the authority's published guidance, not a determination about a particular property.

Good questions.
Straight answers.
Is sweeping the same as an inspection?
No. Sweeping removes deposits within the agreed cleaning scope. An inspection examines condition. Ask which inspection level is appropriate and whether it is included in the visit.
Why can a chimney leak when the fireplace is unused?
Water can enter through caps, crowns, flashing, masonry or other roof details. The source needs to be identified before a repair is selected; a stain alone does not establish which part failed.
What if smoke comes back into the room?
Stop using the appliance and arrange an assessment. Smoke can relate to draft, an obstruction or the wider venting system. If there is an active fire or an alarm, leave the area and contact emergency services.
