oh awesome, that means that tearing it all down and starting from scratch is even more expensive, cos you gotta hire someone to safely bag the asbestos. or do it yourself and die from cancer in a decade.
The only reason we know there’s asbestos in the house is because we were going to tear all the carpet in the house out before moving in, then we began to find asbestos underneath several layers of flooring under the carpet in the back room of the first floor, which made us decide to not rip up that one carpet in the back room at all. As for the insulation, I’m not exactly 100% on my assumption of it having asbestos too, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was.
Sure would be a bad time to learn that the metal roof was leaky in one spot, and would cause us have to set up a drip bucket in the attic that would have to be emptied out every time it rained, and said attic space had all the insulation completely exposed to open air, and didn’t have the money to properly deal with that issue for several years…
