Why Semlab
Asbestos analysis for you in Budapest
Tenement houses in the inner districts
The inner districts of Budapest are full of large 19th- and early 20th-century tenement buildings arranged around courtyards. Many flats in them have been refitted several times during the 20th century. Under today's floors and behind today's tiles there can be older vinyl, adhesives, filler and boards from the decades when asbestos was widely used in construction.
Panel housing estates
A large share of Budapest's population lives in prefabricated panel blocks built in the socialist era. Materials used in those buildings and in their later renovations may include asbestos-containing floor coverings, adhesives, joint sealants and boards. Before you remove a floor or open a wall, send a sample of each material you will disturb. Keep in mind that joints between panels and shared risers belong to the building as a whole.
