aagh, your all scaring me know, I dismantlled the asbestos on my shed a few years ago, but I damped it all down, oh well, time will tell.

 

Don't worry about that too much, as said, that would have contained chrysotile which was the most commonly used in construction and the least unstable. Amosite & crocidolite [brown & blue] were outlawed first and were more dangerous.

In fact, I think chrysoltile was still legal as late as 1998... It's generally bound in cement to improve fire retardancy and tensile strength so unless you pound your roof sheets into a dust you should be fine. This stuff also isn't as tightly controlled when it comes to removal. I think you can actually take it to most council waste transfer stations / recycling facilties. :thumbup1:
