Hello everyone,
I am currently planning the renovation of my attic. It was converted in 1973 (previously a conversion reserve) and altered again in 1992.
The same carpet is laid throughout the entire floor (whether it is still from the original conversion or from 1992, I do not know). It is now supposed to be replaced with something modern. Yesterday, I peeled off a corner to estimate how much work is ahead of me. Of course, it is fully glued down, which I had already expected. What makes me hesitant, however, is the structure: under the carpet there is first a layer of crumbs – that was probably once the bottom side – and then a fleece made of fine, white-gray fibers. When pulling it off, the fleece willingly came off the floor together with the carpet, but the fine fiber structure doesn't quite sit well with me.
Occupational safety is already an issue due to old KMF and fiberglass insulation in the attic, but could there be problematic stuff lurking here? Does anyone know this material and how to deal with it?
Grateful for suggestions and advice,
