I JUST HAD THIS DONE AT MY HOUSE, I had asbestos, but had it removed first because it can break underneath and cause ripples in the siding. DO NOT GO OVER ASBESTOS by removing it the house is then worth more because there is no more asbestos and you will never have to worry. Just take one hit to the asbestos and watch how it breaks like glass. They will be nailing through it and it WILL break. It does not cost as much as everyone thinks, most people are just afraid of it. Get estimates done from a few places and tell them you want the asbestos removed.
