Faster repairs. Lower costs. Better roads.
There is a better way! Mr. Manhole is a patented circular cutting system that lets your crews or your contractors complete manhole repairs in under an hour.
YOU’VE GOT A BIG JOB TO DO.
EXTEND INFRASTRUCTURE LIFE
Rehabilitate instead of replace. Get more years out of your existing assets.
LOWER TOTAL COST
Save up to 60% compared to full manhole replacement. $1,500 less per repair on average.
MINIMIZE DOWNTIME
Most repairs complete in under an hour. Less time on the road means less disruption to your community.
PROVEN & TRUSTED
227,000 repairs completed since 2002. Used by municipalities across the country.
Whether your municipality wants to purchase the equipment, require it in contractor bids, or simply learn how the system works, we can help. Our team works directly with public works departments and engineers to find the right path forward.
Mr. Manhole is not a repair service. It is a patented cutting system that municipalities purchase for their own crews, require contractors to use in their bid specs, or access through a certified local dealer. However your city works, there is a path that fits.

One circular cut removes the frame and surrounding pavement in about 10 minutes. The full repair – start to finish – completes in under an hour. No jackhammer. No square patch. No crew straining over heavy equipment on the road.
The same system your crews use for manhole repair also handles water valve boxes, storm catch basins, and utility excavations, and integrates with paving operations to keep roadwork moving. One system. More problems solved.
In addition to being safety risks (i.e., trip and vehicle hazards), deteriorating manholes cause increased inflow and infiltration (I&I) into the sewer system, causing much higher long-term maintenance and treatment costs. By prioritizing rehabilitation over patching, municipalities protect public safety, improve infrastructure and treatment systems’ efficiency, and reduce both immediate and future maintenance costs.
Using traditional methods, a 5-man municipal crew can finish only 1 to 2 manholes per day. However, using the Mr. Manhole method and equipment, the same crew can finish 8 (or more) full rehabilitations per day, thanks to drastically reduced cutting and repair times (~10 minutes for cutting and ~1 hour for repair). Some certified Mr. Manhole installer crews even report completing up to 20 repairs per day, testifying to the superiority of this system over traditional ones.
Standard (trenchless) rehabilitation methods are often cited to have lifespans of 25 to 50 years – under ideal conditions. Since conditions are seldom “ideal”, the realistic expectation falls more within a 15 to 30-year range.
On the flip side, the Mr. Manhole system is designed to ensure a minimal service life of 20 years, as it addresses both the structural repair and watertight sealing requirements, bringing the manhole nearly on par with the full-replacement performance.
Thanks to reduced labor, fewer materials (around 20%, both for excavation and replacement), and lower downstream maintenance and treatment costs (due to reduced I&I), the Mr. Manhole method can easily yield savings in tens of percent – and in some cases, even upwards of 50%.
Mr. Manhole has the equipment, accessories, and literature to help you achieve that goal – and much more! Whether you want to make the job easier for your utility contractors and road paving crews, or need a way to strengthen the municipal infrastructure and budget, our method ensures that you achieve both goals in one swoop.
