    Hi all,

    I am buying a house with a shed that has a corrigated roof that definitely has asbestos in it. Any idea of the cost to have this removed and disposed of properly? Its about 6ft by 6ft.

    It depends who does it, could be €2,500 once everyone is happy that it is done right in this nanny state.

    Used advanced google to search this domain for prior stuff on this, the regs are on the health and safety website.

    Untouched, and unbroken, its not a problem.
    Its not an OMG moment for FB/Twitter/Instatcrap:D
    don't let it be a show stopper in any way, equally don't try get the price reduced by any mad amount because of it as the next guy in line will not worry about it.
    Keep well and good luck

    Stop talking so much about it first, tell nobody, felt over it if it's a bit leaky.

    If you are getting other works done at the same time, it should cost about 1k to remove and replace with a felt roof.

    Asbestos sheets aren't dangerous if they are solid and in one piece. The fibres are trapped in cement.
