Manhole Restoration – Ensure Structural Longevity

Manholes play a crucial role in providing access to underground utilities and drainage systems, especially in busy commercial areas. Over time, these structures can become damaged due to constant exposure to heavy traffic, weather conditions, and wear and tear. Recently, a manhole in front of a commercial building on Dundas St W in Toronto required restoration due to its deteriorating condition. To ensure the safety and longevity of the area, a comprehensive restoration process was carried out.


Repair Method

The repair method involved cutting a 5 ft by 5 ft section around the manhole, removing the asphalt, soil, and old brick base. A new concrete foundation was created, which was set 6 inches lower than the original base to enhance stability and improve drainage. Once the new base was in place, the asphalt and surrounding materials were carefully reinstalled, restoring the manhole to a durable, functional state.


Benefits of the Application

This method provides several advantages, such as improved structural integrity and better water management, ensuring the manhole can withstand heavy traffic and environmental challenges. Timely repairs like these are essential to avoid larger issues down the line, preventing potential hazards and maintaining the smooth operation of commercial spaces.
