2 million homes containing asbestos
Today, the Flemish region has about 3,317,000 residential units. Out of these, 2,741,000 date from before 2001. Another 72% of these are houses, buildings or commercial properties. So more than 1,975,000 houses in Flanders today potentially contain asbestos. The remaining 28% of the housing units from before 2001 therefore consists of 766,000 apartment buildings. source: https://www.vlaanderen.be/statistiek-vlaanderen/bouwen-en-wonen/woningvoorraad
On an annual basis, 60,000 houses are sold in Flanders. The share of sold houses dating from before 2001 is no less than 80%. That is quite a lot, but Flanders is still best in class when we compare those figures with Brussels and Wallonia. In Wallonia, the share of houses built before 2001 is 91% and in Brussels that number even exceeds 95%! source : immoweb - properties for sale by province and by year of construction on (15/11/2022)
If the sales figures continue the same trend, from 23/11/22 about 4000 asbestos certificates will have to be drawn up per month for houses, buildings and commercial properties. The number of available asbestos experts varies per province and will of course never be exactly in proportion to the demand. For example, in some cases you will have to exercise a little more patience due to long(er) waiting times. Moreover, this is a fairly recent service, so there are fewer reviews available to make your choice easier. And that sometimes makes it difficult for you, the consumer, to make the right choice.
