Asbestos survey in Hanko

An asbestos survey is relevant in Hanko whenever a renovation or demolition is being planned at a property built before 1994. In Finland, asbestos was commonly used in construction from the 1920s right up until 1992, and it turns up in floor adhesives, waterproofing membranes, pipe insulation, tile adhesive and facade panels, among other places. In Hanko's coastal building stock, these materials remain common in older homes and holiday properties. Finnish Government Decree 798/2015 requires an asbestos survey before demolition or renovation work on a property built before 1994. The survey protects workers and residents from health risks and ensures that any asbestos-containing materials are handled in accordance with the law. Under the law, renovation work may not begin without a proper survey, and responsibility for any exposure falls on the client.

An asbestos survey in Hanko runs smoothly and without unnecessary waiting. At the agreed time, a qualified and experienced surveyor arrives at your property, systematically examines the structures, and identifies materials that may contain asbestos. They take the necessary samples carefully, so the result reflects the real situation. The samples are sent to the OneLab laboratory, where they are analysed with a precise JEOL SEM-EDS electron microscope in accordance with the international ISO 22262-1 standard. This reliably reveals whether a material contains asbestos and what type it is. Once the analysis is complete, you receive a clear, easy-to-understand survey report straight to your email, quickly. The report states where asbestos was found and how the materials must be handled during the renovation. This gives you all the information you need to start safe, lawful work in Hanko.

AsbestiPro's asbestos survey in Hanko costs a fixed 239 € incl. VAT, so surprises are avoided. The price covers, in full, the survey visit to the property, all necessary samples, laboratory analysis at the OneLab laboratory, travel costs to the Hanko coastal area, VAT, and the finished written report. You don't pay separately for travel or the number of samples — you get the full service for one clear price. For demolition sites, where the survey is more extensive and detailed, 100 € is added to the price. If you'd like to check the asbestos content of a single material yourself, you can order just the asbestos sample analysis for 39,90 € + VAT.

This is a convenient option for smaller checks, but for the statutory survey we always recommend a visit from a professional surveyor.
