One of the manufacturers that uses pavingexpert.com for consultancy work is looking for a project where TWO pressed steel MH or IC covers are required.
These are the rectangular, roughly 450x600mm, galvanised covers sat in a frame that are most commonly seen in bitmac or flagged driveways where the client decides the expense of a recess tray is not warranted. They're rated for up to 7.5 tonnes.
The idea is that we need to photo-document the installation of the two, using slightly different types of cover on each, so that we can do a 'compare and contrast' exercise.
In essence, we give you, completely Fre Of Charge, the covers and frames and then I come along (and possibly a rep from the manufacturer) to photo and possibly video the installation, then get your feedback on anything you liked or disliked about the products, whether one was easier to handle or better to use than the other, that sort of thing.
Ideally, you'd be located somewhere within 60 miles of Warington, but we're quite prepared to consider candidates from further afield if it's the right job.
Probably gonna struggle on this one Tone, I wouldn't ever put one of those in a driveway. Flange is far too thin to be witin a bitmac surface for starters. (In my opinion) and the amount of these that I see bent inwards.......

I know that; you know that; most of the professionals in The Brew Cabin know that, ....but *somebody* must be using them or Clark Drain wouldn't be making them!
The only place I can recall seeing these is on new-build houses where everything is done as cheaply as possible....and the first thing to be done once the buyers have settled in and decorated is a new driveway with proper access covers!
