Hi, if you phone the HSE hotline they should be able to help you determine what sort of asbestos is involved. If you are still unsure find an asbestos surveying co( on rated people) who will test your asbestos and give you options (and peace of mind)
Its fairly typical of the 60s & 70s and pretty harmless if left alone and unless its leaking I wouldnt touch it. if you want to brush cobwebs away then wear a mask keep the door open . If on the other hand you're wanting to modernise the garage/utility room and make it more weather proof then have flat roof put on. Best regards Nick Avbase
As it is , it's harmless. Only if you should cut it or drill it can it atomise . If you're very worried , paint the inside surface , that will contain it and stop you worrying .
Nick shares his story of finding local tradespeople in his new area.
