Looking for recommendations from fellow MOL'ers who've had this done. Thanks! Also, how much does a job like this usually run? We probably have about 8-10 pipes down there that need to be wrapped up.   Bob K Supporter Username: Bobk Post Number: 11291 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Sunday, April 23, 2006 - 4:51 am:        It is probably better to remove the asbestos than wrap it. When we had this done the cost was around $1,000, which according to our real estate lady is almost the universal price for most houses around here. The work was done by a company, I think, call D&H Restorations, that does a ton of work in MW and SO. I don't have contact information, but I am sure someone will post it shortly, and correct the name if I am wrong.   marian Citizen Username: Marian Post Number: 796 Registered: 9-2001 Posted on Sunday, April 23, 2006 - 5:10 pm:        Thanks, Bob K. we would obviously prefer to remove it, but thought that would cost a LOT more than $1,000. Good to know the general range for that is not as bad as we thought.   Eire Citizen Username: Eire Post Number: 144 Registered: 7-2005 Posted on Monday, April 24, 2006 - 8:46 pm:        We had a similar issue, and I don't think it even cost $1K last year. I think the name of the company was Aztech (sp?) in Montclair maybe? Aztech Management Inc 86 Christopher Street Montclair, NJ, 973-744-8800
