    Scratch the surface, take a few deep breaths. Report back here in 30 years with results.

    No one can confirm from one photo and you shouldn't take any random person's word for it either.

    Either call in a professional to assess it or send in a sample to be tested properly: https://www.asbestos.nsw.gov.au/who-to-contact/getting-an-as…

    where do you based on?

    i am in VIC and i get Identifibre in oakleigh to do the test for me.

    it was only $70 per sample from memory

    • I will look it up, thanks 🙏

      • I got Enviroscience to do mine - $160 for two samples (in 2018)

  • apparently you can get asbestos kits many places for cheap.

    • Oh that’s interesting idea, thank you!

  • Until you get pro advice, have you checked this?

    Could be, might be. Can’t tell from a picture on the internet. Anyone who tells you it’s definitely not asbestos is talking out their butt.
