I have asbestos on some floors of units I am renovating. Two upstairs and two downstairs. Firstly I would like to know if I can cover this with another type of flooring eg: Laminate flooring. Is this ok and also with a concrete floor would the noise of the floorboards be too much for the unit below. There is also some asbestos in the portico area (common walkway) can this also be covered, I was thinking of using indoor outdoor carpet? If I was to remove the asbestos could I then paint the floor to keep costs down? I was wondering about the glue that may have been used and would it come up? Thanks for helping me with this dilema...it is hard to get some straight answers.:confused:
