Asbestos Removal

[Art]

Having recently gone sale agreed on a property in Dublin, I subsequently got a survey carried out which found that there was asbestos in the slates on the roof. The house itself is about 75 square metres. I’m just wondering how much it will cost to get the slates removed and disposed of as obviously I’m going to have to renegotiate the price

It doesn't mean you'll get anywhere with your negotiations. The seller might get the hump and decide not to sell to you.

Why do you want to remove the slates?

Because the survey report said they were curling

Ok. Get a pair of binoculars and have a good look before you go to a lot of cost. As a matter of interest how did the surveyor come to the conclusion that the slates were curling?
