Has anyone watched the show on DIY network called "Renovation Realities"?
I just watched an episode called "The Simmons Job" where these homeowners were remodeling their attic. They pulled off the existing wood paneling and found some kind of fiberboard behind it. They had a friend come over and he said that because of the age of the house it probably had asbestos in it.
They decided to cover it back up with drywall.
It's my understanding that asbestos is safe if left undisturbed. They were definitely disturbing it. There was no mention of any testing on the show. This seems very irresponsible to me.
Wouldn't the film crew be at risk as well?
