asbestos removal recommendation?
We have a pipe in our furnace room that has a small amount of asbestos insulation, probably about 5-6 ft. We never bother removing it on the recommendation of our contractor, but we’re selling the house and the new owners would like it removed and I’ve agreed to do it. Any recommendations? We’re in Prospect…

Many thanks.

I have about 100′ in my basement. How much did you have them remove and also about what does it cost to have your Leinstar to do it?
Thanks!
I just used Leinster Contracting for the asbestos in my basement. Pat did an amazing job. There was tons of asbestos on the piping down there, plus he pointed out where the asbestos had broken off and had fallen on the ground and mixed with the debris. He’s super thorough and even removed all of the junk that was down there from when we bought the place. Anything we wanted left, he cleaned and set aside. He was very friendly, professional and gave us a really competitive rate. 718.651.9100

See what I mean?
Don’t mess with it. Get a professional. Otherwise you’ll really wish you’d spent the money when you end up finding out you’re facing an early death from mesothelioma or asbestosis.
I’m with BFAG on this one.
People overreact to specific risks that are nameable.
Maybe not morally, Denton. But even abatement professionals sometimes have a hard time discerning what is and isn’t asbestos.
BFAG, you absolutely cannot do that legally!
It’s all good…
ok sorry, but having to endure wife’s complaints makes me sensitive. She even said we should tell our tenants about the ticking timebomb in the cellar, at which point I shall I say, lost my ever-limited cool?
