Hi Group,

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere but I can't seem to find
anything specific - there's *plenty* of talk about the old

corraguated
boards used for roofing sheds/garages etc.... but I'm looking for

some
advise about the panels used on the INSIDE of the garage roof, I'm
guessing for fire retardant (its an attached garage). They look
similar to sheets of pasterboard - but I'm pretty sure they're not!

How evil is this asbestos? Can you even tell/guess? If I want to
remove it (the garage is coming down so I need to....), is it ok to
remove it as whole pannels, wetted, bagged etc....

Thanks for any info.

Paul.


We don't even know if it is asbestos. It sound unlikely to me to be as

it
the underside of a roof.


Which is not an unusual place to find asbestos boards!

How old is the house ? Im thinking it could be fibreboard rather than
asbestos cement.


It could be asbestos cement, asbestos insulating board, or a non
asbestos board.
