oh no! not the "asbestos cement DANGER DANGER" thread again I hope

It depends on which fibres were used, which depends on when the roof

extremely unlikely that any records are available, or remain.

My health and safety advisers take the view that *all* asbestos cement
products should be left alone or removed by a specialist contractor. *

But I can understand people thinking that they can take a chance, and
that they will probably get away with it to save a few s. *The world
is full of chancers.

I think the point is there is a lack of sound evidence that taking
white asbestos sheet down twice per lifetime was in any way chancey.
