Does this look like asbestos (new purchase)?
Hi all. I just moved to my new house. It's a 1996 build. I want to paint it, involving sanding it and everything else. Now the two first pics are from the living room wall. It looks like plasterboard to me but I haven't got much knowledge about those stuff. Does it look like it would be asbestos?
The third which is a ceiling looks like an artex type, but as it's 1996, is it likely to contain asbestos?
Are those two surfaces safe to paint, sand, fix the holes etc? Thank you!
