Ripping up 30+ year old carpet. What should I look out for regarding potential asbestos risk?
I’m about to pull up some old carpet in my home that is at least 30 years old (could be older). House originally built in the late 1950s.
The New Zealand work safe website states that certain carpet underlays are a risk, but doesn’t provide further details.
For those who have experience with flooring renovations of this era what specific types of carpet underlay or padding from this period are known to contain asbestos?
