Hi,
Window fitters just took out a door for me. Guy said it might have exposed asbestos but didn’t know for sure. See pictures. This is in my ceiling basically. I don’t mean the white polystyrene, I mean the grey board in the gap which has a hex pattern on it.
This is now open in my hall. I got a 3 year old so just want to make sure I’m safe.
He said should be ok if I don’t poke it. Seems like it was already disturbed and it’s all frayed already.
As I understand this would be cement board and this would be white asbestos and it’s one of the lowest risk forms.
I was thinking of spraying with pva and letting my builder just plaster over it.
So
1. Do you think this is asbestos and is it dangerous as it is?
2. It will take a while to get it tested and dealt with. In the meantime should I spray it with water/pva?
Thanks!
