my other post made me think of this.
In my reckless youth, where i would do any job as quick as i could I embarked on a demolition of my old shed, Which was made of Asbestos/cement sheets, you know the kind. So i hired i midi skip, hitched my T shirt over my mouth and smashed up my shed into little bits sending dust every where, dumped it in my skip and covered it with garden rubble.
Two days after they took their skip away i recived a very nasty phone call from the boss of the skip company, I pleaded ignorant of course, stating that i didd'nt know what the stuff was, and was billed £70.
Very cheap for having 30 large sheets of asbestos removed don't you think
down side is i have probably got asbestos poisoning.
 
Did you spray the asbestos sheets with water first? on a side note, artex can contain asbestos - a healthy coating of wall paper paste will make it peel from a ceiling like skin, removing the artex
