Our 3-Step Project Process
Why Maintenance is Critical
Safety First
Cracked or loose manhole covers are a major trip and fall hazard for pedestrians, vehicles, and staff.
Pest Prevention
Damaged benching (the concrete inside the manhole) is the primary way rats escape the sewers and enter your property.
Odor Control
Broken seals or blocked gulleys allow sewer gases to escape, creating unpleasant smells around your home or business.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common concerns answered by our drainage team.
Can you replace a manhole cover in a high-traffic driveway?
Yes. We install D400-rated heavy-duty covers specifically designed to withstand constant vehicle traffic without sinking or cracking.
Why is my manhole "gurgling" or smelling?
This is often caused by a "trap" failure or blocked benching inside the chamber. We can clear the blockage and re-render the internal channels to stop the smell.
Are there "recessed" covers for my patio or garden?
Absolutely. We can install recessed "tray" covers that allow you to lay block paving, tiles, or turf inside the lid, making the manhole virtually invisible.
What is "benching," and why does it matter?
Benching is the sloped concrete at the bottom of a manhole that directs waste into the pipe. If it’s cracked, waste sits there, rots, and attracts rats.
Do you repair the brickwork inside the manhole?
Yes. We specialize in re-pointing and rendering internal manhole walls to prevent groundwater from leaking in and sewage from leaking out.
