What makes you think it is asbestos anyway? May not be.

I got a random letter in the post saying some of our garages have asbestos.

From a business offering to remove it for you for a price no doubt?

I’d trust the surveyor who has actually inspected the property and not reported any asbestos, rather than the speculative letter from a company trying to drum up business saying you might have asbestos, who has never even looked at it.
