So, does it all need removing, or could you board some of it up?

Intentionally leaving confirmed amosite/AIB in-situ and covered over inside a domestic property could be considered borderline psychopathic. Leaving a 'gift' like that for someone in the future isn't nice, let alone the potential risks to the occupants in the meantime.

It needs clearing up properly - and there's simply no sense in doing half a job.

Well, we took professional advice with ours. But, I will say, the bits we have left are outside, not in - maybe that's the difference?

Or yours was chrysotile in asbestos cement.

This touches on a point made earlier in the thread by Niv, and illustrated by HampshireH's previous post. There are different types of asbestos, used in different materials, in different circumstances.  What applies in one case doesn't necessarily apply in another one.  Likewise, the particular circumstances determine the method of management/removal, and unavoidably on the cost of dealing with it.
