Some of the tile in the basement also has asbestos, and we're not certain if the attic floor does as well.

From the appearance of the abatement, all you have to do to contain asbestos is wrap old garbage bags around the offending insulation and secure with duct tape. Maybe a DIY project for Darwin?

It seriously is like having a baby- you just keep thinking, "I can't believe people actually DO this!" <br /><br />Will say a prayer! The front door alone is incredible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
