There are many different ways to cover up poles in your basement. I can remember back in the day a lot of people had some type of cemented moldings as coverings on pipes and poles in the basement. This type of covering has been know to have asbestos in it and needs to be removed immediately. Asbestos is very hazardous and can cause terminal illness to those who are exposed to it. One way to
. cover poles in your basement is to use pieces of fiberboards. A lot of companies are selling these and you can buy the boards unfinished for painting or staining. These covers are simple to use and they do not take up floor space. There are so many designs to choose from and some covers will have the basement pole looking like a beautiful built in column. Again, you can paint the covers to match the decor of the basement. For more information on basement pole wraps check out the following websites: www.yourhomeourproducts.com and www.polewrap.com.
