Default Corrugated asbestos/cement garaging roofing

AS I say, mine appeared to be dust, not fibre. the older ones had a slightly
bluish tinge to them and were made with fibres like some pipe lagging one
used to see. There was quite a lot of that in Battersea power station when
it was decommissioned.

Thanks Michael

The more I read the more worrying it becomes.

I wanted to avoid the expense as the roof is in good condition, just the
ridge that needs replacing.


just put some timber beams across supported on something else, add a board
and hopefully you can access it.

RE asbestos fibres, if the sheet isn't disintegrating it's not releasing
fibres.
