  • Oh I see! Some new house have flat root here, but I never really checked how it was done.
    It’s a bit like pool’s floor.

    I read that to get rid of asbestos it’s a pain here, there are many rules.
    If you want to do it yourself you have to ask authorities for permission. You are allowed to do it only on cement blocks.
    A diagnosis is mandatory before any work on it, which will decide if you can do a part of the work alone or not.

    Yeah you need to be careful working around asbestos, especially if you need to drill or anything that would make particles.

    That was interesting, thanks for the conversation 🙂


  • Hahaha yeah, but in winter the walls can get really cold. In summer it keep the house cool.
    Oh wood is known to be a good natural insulation!
    Flat roof? It’s rarely raining? You never have violent rain?
    So it’s a construction in wood from the 50s? Wow. Does it age well? Does it require a lot of maintenance?
    I’m wondering about asbestos from the 50s, here if it’s starting to crumble it’s extremely expensive to get rid of it.

    Here roof is around 40-45 degree incline, and composed of oak frame also. And no asbestos I tried to avoid that at all cost. It was used a lot in the 70s and early 80s.
