Asbestos sample by post
Asbestos sample Tuusula
The shores of Lake Tuusulanjärvi filled with detached and terraced houses in the 1960s and 1970s, and renovating them is now becoming topical for many owners. You can detach a piece of the suspect material yourself, pack it carefully and post it to Onelab's laboratory with no appointment. That settles the asbestos question quickly, on your own schedule.

Sampling points in a Tuusula property
The building stock of Tuusula ranges from the old villas along Rantatie to the 1960s-1980s apartment blocks and terraced houses of Hyrylä and Jokela. In the newer properties asbestos appears in floor adhesives, in the substrate of vinyl flooring and in tile adhesives; in the older villa properties only in later repair layers. Take the sample from the layer being demolished.
Notify the housing company before sampling
If the sample is taken from a structure that falls under the housing company's responsibility - pipe insulation, a stairwell surface or a wet room waterproofing membrane - notify the building manager before the work. A shareholder may take a sample of the surface material in their own apartment without separate permission.
