Manhole restoration equipment

Pull a manhole in an afternoon. Not a week.

One skid steer, one crew, one cut. The Mr. Manhole Method removes the old structure and drops in a watertight assembly that sits level with the road and holds for 20 years. No guessing, no lane closure for days, no callbacks.

The problem

The old ways don't work anymore.

Structures sit low and beat up trucks. Chimneys leak, and the town pays to treat stormwater it never used. Then the repair itself eats a crew up for days and the same crew is back in three years.

Slow, hazardous repairs

Saw cutting, jackhammers, and hand work put people in the hole and traffic on top of them.

It comes back

Patch a patch and you pay for the same manhole two or three times a decade.

Not level with the road

A sunken frame is a claim waiting to happen and a complaint call every week.

Leaking chimneys

Inflow drives treatment cost up and pushes overflow into lakes and streams.

The value, in dollars

Same list of manholes. Two very different invoices.

Figures from a single season’s repair program. Your numbers will move with crew size and structure count — we will run them with you.

The Method

Four moves, one crew, one day.

Nobody goes in the hole. The machine does the cutting, the lifting, and the setting while your crew stays on the surface.
The Method

Set and cut

Center the cutter on the lid and take a clean full-depth circle through asphalt and concrete. Minutes, not hours.
STep 2

Lift it out whole

The old frame and chimney come out in one piece. No jackhammers, no hand digging, and no more back breaking labor.

STep 3

Set the new assembly

A structurally sound, watertight riser drops in. Markrite brings it to exact road height before you pour.
STep 4

Finish and open the lane

Pour, finish flush, and you’re done. Twenty-year design life, no leaks and no cracks. 

The lineup

Four cutters.

Over 1,000 crews already run it.

Hear it from owners

Short interviews with contractors and public works crews on what changed after the first month: crew size, hours per structure, and callbacks.

We purchased the Platinum Six-Shooter a few weeks ago. Since that time we have cut 16+ box outs through concrete with no issues.

The tool works like a champ and has not only impressed me but our Public Works Director also. Should have done this long ago.

The Mr. Mister water spray system is a must-have. It greatly reduces the concrete silica in the air, protecting the ground crew.
