Replacing Asbestos Shingles


I have to replace a small number of asbestos shingles on the back wall of my home that were destroyed in a storm. I hear that GAF has atile called "Weatherside" that would work. Anyone know where I can get this tile?

Is it a good idea?

FIRST OFF: Be very careful when working with asbestos, unless of coarse you are looking forward to suffering through cancer. Always wear the proper resperators and body protection.

Not knowing exactly what your siding looks like I can't say it will match. For more info and to find a distrubotor in your area go to: http://www.gaf.com/Content/GAF/RES1/...atherSide.html
