Asbestos roofing?

Hi Does anyone know if the soffits (the underside of the roof overhang) on the houses on the Turpins Close/Ladywood Road/Halley Ridge estate contain asbestos? Cheers! Greg

I very unlikely doubt it as asbestos was banned a long time before that estate was built. It is probably just cemtex or equivalent...If in doubt contact Professional advice.
