How do you plan to lay the new floor over them? Adhesive? Nails? Using
nails will break the asbestos tiles and cause airborne particles. Not
something I'd do. Adhesive will be on top of the asbestos tiles and
have to rely on the integrity of those tiles which in time, could
start to loosen. I'd choose to remove the tiles and be done with any
potential problems. If it's a large area, you could hire a
professional. Otherwise, I'd wet the entire area and remove it myself
using protective gear, of course.

The asbestos is bound up by the composite resin.

Which could also be asbestos material.

It is not going to
jump up at you.

It can if disturbed and it only requires a single particle.

It only requires a single particle to do what, exactly?
