I am considering buying a very old house, but discovered it has asbestos siding and asbestos roof shingles. The house definitely needs a new roof, the siding on the house looks okay. Is any of this a hazard? Will it all have to be replaced? What is involved in replacing them?

We hired a company to clean, repair and recoat our asbestos roof. They gave us a guarantee for 20 years, it is beautiful. You may want to look at there web sight, it has pictures of our home and others, before during and after the process. It was well worth saving and we saved a lot of money by not tearing it off. here is the web address. asbestos1.com
