The main problem with asbestos roofing, is that it suddenly and without
warning just shatters under your weight. Unlike most roofing materials
which will complaint before they collapse.


so just like slates, tiles, strawboard covered with felt...

I really think people are far too panic stricken about asbestos. It
takes a lifetimes exposure to a lot of dust to **** your lungs up.


I agree on that point.
