Based on the appearance of the siding and the age of this structure, some, most or all of the exterior siding material may contain asbestos. The client(s) should be aware of this when considering repairs to or replacement of this siding, and consult with qualified testing labs and/or abatement contractors as necessary.

Siding is not equated to Asbestos "In the Home" There is a difference between Interior and Exterior exposures..... your mileage may vary..... Joseph P.
