Because in order to build a lab, you have to go outside, quarry stone, chop wood, and perform other acquisitions....which you can't do when people have barricaded you in the castle, unless you want to dismantle your own castle to build that lab....but that would be a very bad idea.

Plus the construction worker's union prohibits them from working under such conditions, to boot.
