Bitumen tape may contain asbestos

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
I had a fuse board fitted and an EIC issued, all fine and signed off properly. My flat has gone on sale 5 months later and the potential buyer has had a RICS survey done which flagged the potential for asbestos. The buyer also had an EICR done which passed.


The buyer is worried about the comments the surveyor made. Is this dangerous and should it be removed? What would be the best course of action for me to take?


I have attached a photo.

    If the unclear picture shows an electrical cable that ends at the main fuse cutout it may be a P.I.L.C. mains supply cable,. (Paper Insulated Lead Covered). Have a look at images online to see if it is. There will be no asbestos there if it is a P.I.L.C. cable.
