One of the worst things you can do with an asbestos roof is to
pressure wash it. Now that really does loosen the fibres up!


With respect - bollox!


Just try it. You know how effective a pressure washer is at disturbing
the surface of tired cement. Catch some of the run off water, filter
it off and look at the residue. Or else pressure wash a bit of it and
just look at the exposed fibres afterwards.


I have, did my garage roof 10 years ago, No surface damage whatsoever.
