Asbestos sample Kirkkonummi
From a detached house along the archipelago road or a flat in the centre of Kirkkonummi, you detach a small piece of the suspect material yourself into an airtight bag. Pack it in an envelope and post it to us - the result leaves our laboratory as soon as the sample reaches us in Uusimaa.

The timeline of the Kirkkonummi building stock
The Porkkala area was returned to Finland in 1956, and building in Kirkkonummi got properly under way after that. The building stock therefore dates from the late 1950s to the 1980s - precisely the decades when asbestos was used most in construction. Typical locations are floor adhesives, fillers, tile adhesives and facade panels.
Which part of the structure to sample
Take the sample where the structure is being demolished, not from a random spot. In a floor the adhesive may vary from room to room and in a wall the filler layer may have been patched. One sample tells you about one spot, so on a large surface it is worth considering two samples from opposite ends.
