Just been to view a house with "substantial" barn and garage, both covered in corrugated asbestos roofing sheets dating from - at a guess - the late 70's. Roughly 400 square M of the stuff.

Would it be a case of just leaving it in situ and hoping it never needs to be touched, or should it be replaced pronto? If so, does anyone have any idea of costs for removal?

It's mostly idle curiosity at this stage, as I've never had to deal with asbestos before.
