    Planning to put plaster skim on under stairs ceiling, could there be asbestos here

    Thanks for the responses. Built in 1925 apparently. Would like to do that at some point, but since it’s undisturbed, I’m going to leave it alone, just to be safe. Any advice on how to prepare the surface before skimming.

    Is this crack a cause for concern
