Does anyone know the date when corrugated Asbestos roofs were replaced by
corrugated cement sheets? I replaced mine in 1997, after *the* big storm
and am sure that it was sold as not containing asbestos, but I can not
prove it. It will have to be replaced soon.

Have a close look at the top surface of the sheets.

*Big six* roofing supplied for agricultural purposes has a descriptive
legend stamped on some of the ribs.

Brown and blue asbestos were banned in 1985 but asbestos cement was used
until 1999.

I had a barn erected in 1995 and the material used was said to be
asbestos free so you should be OK.

The last skip cost me £800+ so enjoy the domestic waste status.
