What it is: Identifying and adjusting manhole elevations to meet surface levels.
How it’s done: Uses advanced detection and lifting techniques.
Advantages: Prevents water pooling, improves accessibility, and meets regulations.
Manholes provide essential access points for sewer and drainage system maintenance, but over time, they can become buried under roads, landscaping, or new layers of asphalt. SEQ Relining also offers manhole locating and raising services, ensuring that these critical access points remain visible and functional. Our expertise helps councils, developers, and property owners maintain proper infrastructure accessibility.
Using advanced detection equipment, our team accurately locates hidden or buried manholes, even those that have been covered for years. This non-invasive process allows us to pinpoint the exact position of access points without the need for disruptive excavation. Once a manhole is identified, we assess its condition and determine whether adjustments are necessary.
If a manhole is found to be below the current ground level, we carefully raise it to match the surrounding surface. This adjustment improves accessibility for maintenance crews, prevents water pooling, and eliminates trip hazards for pedestrians and vehicles. Properly positioned manholes are essential for efficient sewer inspections, repairs, and emergency response efforts.
Maintaining accessible and correctly positioned manholes reduces long-term infrastructure risks and improves overall drainage system efficiency. SEQ Relining ensures that all manhole raising work is performed to the highest standards, enhancing functionality and safety for both public and private properties.
