Asbestos survey in Lahti

An asbestos survey is relevant in Lahti whenever a renovation or demolition is being planned at a property built before 1994. Asbestos was widely used in Finnish construction from the 1920s right up until 1992, and it occurs in floor tiles, waterproofing membranes, pipe insulation, tile adhesive and facade panels, among other places. In the typical building stock of Päijät-Häme, which includes plenty of blocks of flats and terraced houses from the 1960s and 1970s, the presence of asbestos is highly likely. Finnish Government Decree 798/2015 requires an asbestos survey before demolition or renovation work begins, so the work can be carried out safely. The survey protects both residents and workers from health hazards and ensures the project proceeds lawfully and without delay.

An asbestos survey in Lahti begins with a qualified and experienced surveyor arriving at the agreed time at a property in Lahti town centre or elsewhere in Päijät-Häme. They survey the structures to be renovated or demolished and take the necessary material samples from them, so that the surfaces under investigation are covered comprehensively. 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 identifies asbestos fibres in the sample. Once the analysis is complete, you receive a clear written report by email quickly. The report states which structures contained asbestos and serves directly as documentation for planning the renovation or demolition project. The whole process is designed to be smooth and effortless for the property owner.

AsbestiPro's asbestos survey in Lahti costs a fixed 239 € incl. VAT, so the costs are known in advance with no surprises. The price covers the surveyor's visit to the property, all necessary material samples, laboratory analysis at OneLab, travel costs, VAT, and the finished written report. So you don't pay separate extra charges for the number of samples or for travel within the Päijät-Häme area. For actual demolition sites, where the scope of the survey is larger, 100 € is added to the price. If you'd like to check the asbestos content of a single material yourself, you can order a separate asbestos sample for 39,90 € + VAT and send it to the laboratory for analysis. This way you'll find a solution that suits your needs, whether it's an extensive renovation or a single suspicion.
