Replacing Asbestos Garage Roof

How do you remove Asbestos safely?
I have a garage roof, which leaks and I wish to replace it. The trouble is, it’s Asbestos. What are the UK rules and regs on this?
oh my god… contact your council they will send someone to remove it for you…..
asbestos is safe when its behind a solid surface like concrete but if its exposed do not go near it….. even air movement can create dust/ flake particles to become dislodged from it…. if these are inhaled they permanently damage your lungs … your lungs can not regenerate the parts that the particles have eaten away….
i used to work for the council and the asbestos officer gave me a long talk about it…. the longer it out in the open the more damage it will do
