Asbestos survey in Tampere

In Tampere, an asbestos survey concerns practically every building completed before 1994. In Finland, asbestos was used widely in construction from the 1920s all the way to 1992, and that era is strongly represented in the building stock of Pirkanmaa — in the masonry buildings of the city centre as much as in the post-war suburbs. Asbestos may lie hidden in floor tiles, pipe insulation, roofs, levelling compounds and jointing mortars. Finnish Government Decree 798/2015 requires an asbestos survey to be commissioned before demolition and repair work if the property was built before 1994. The obligation applies to housing companies, property owners and private renovators alike. The survey protects the health of workers and residents, and it ensures that the renovation proceeds in line with the authorities' requirements, without delays or remedial work after the fact.

Once you have placed your order, a competent and experienced surveyor arrives at your property in Tampere at the agreed time. During the visit, the specialist works through the building systematically and identifies the structural components in which asbestos typically occurs. He takes the necessary material samples in a way that keeps any damage to an absolute minimum. The samples are delivered to the OneLab laboratory, where they are analysed with a precise JEOL SEM-EDS electron microscope in accordance with the ISO 22262-1 standard. This analysis reliably identifies the different types of asbestos and the concentrations in which they occur. Once the analysis is complete, you receive a clear written report in your email inbox without delay. The report tells you where asbestos was found and in which structural components, and it serves as it stands as documentation for planning the renovation or demolition work and for the contractors involved. In addition to Tampere, we serve the whole of Pirkanmaa, including the neighbouring city of Nokia.

AsbestiPro provides an asbestos survey in Tampere at a clear fixed price of 219 euros incl. VAT. The price is all-inclusive, so there are no surprises. The package covers the surveyor's visit to the property, all the samples required, the OneLab laboratory analysis, the mileage allowances, VAT and the finished written report. You therefore pay nothing extra for travel or for the number of samples. On genuine demolition sites, where the work is more extensive and calls for a more detailed survey, 100 euros is added to the price. If you would rather establish the asbestos content of a single material yourself, you can order a separate asbestos sample for 39,90 euros plus VAT. This is a convenient option when you suspect only one structural component and do not need the whole property surveyed. Fixed pricing makes budgeting easy for private customers and for housing companies across Pirkanmaa.
