Asbestos survey in Riihimäki

Asbestos was widely used in Finnish construction from the 1920s until 1992, and its use was banned outright in 1994. Riihimäki's building stock includes plenty of properties from this era, so a house completed before 1994 is likely to contain asbestos. It can be hidden in floor tiles, waterproofing membranes, pipe insulation, tile adhesive and wall panels, among other places. Finnish Government Decree 798/2015 requires an asbestos survey to be carried out before any renovation or demolition work on a building constructed before 1994. The survey is not a mere formality — it protects the health of residents and workers and ensures that demolition work is carried out in accordance with the law. In Riihimäki this applies equally to detached houses, terraced houses and housing companies.

An asbestos survey in Riihimäki is a straightforward, hassle-free process. A qualified and experienced surveyor arrives at the property at the agreed time, whether that's a flat in a block in the town centre or a detached house in the rural parts of Kanta-Häme. The surveyor carefully examines the structures and takes the necessary material samples from the points where asbestos may be present. The samples are sent to the OneLab laboratory, where they are analysed using a JEOL SEM-EDS electron microscope in accordance with the ISO 22262-1 standard. This is a reliable and precise form of analysis that identifies asbestos fibres with certainty. Once the analysis is complete, you receive a clear written report by email quickly. The report shows where the samples were taken, whether they contain asbestos, and what steps the renovation or demolition requires. This lets your project move forward without unnecessary delay.
