Yes I thought so too. I’m in the north east, and that’s often one of the perks I guess.Having said that, be assured that the company seem legit and I will make sure that he has all of the correct paperwork etc!I’d rather not pay more obviously, but wouldn’t be happy to find that they’ve been ditched on a back lane somewhere!0

I totally agree we had the same stuff on our garage roof and we got a firm to remove it and replace with a type of very hard plastic. They did great job and were VERY careful with the stuff they removed - lots of PPE and double bagging etc.Phil4432 said:Don't bother take it down yourself, its not worth the risk to yourself to you and your family. Yes, its low content asbestos but why take the risk?
What happens if it starts breaking off? Do you have a HZ vacuum? Have you had training in how to handle it?
