Deep Manhole Installation & Drainage Infrastructure

Heavy-Duty Excavation. Specialized Installation. Built for Long-Term Performance.

Not every paving contractor is equipped to handle large-scale underground drainage infrastructure. At Total Paving & Brick Services, we provide expert installation and rehabilitation of deep manholes and other stormwater structures for commercial, industrial, and municipal clients. Whether your project involves a 12-foot-deep manhole or complex subgrade drainage, we have the equipment, training, and experience to get it done safely and efficiently.

What We Do

Our deep infrastructure services are designed for drainage systems that require more than basic surface work. We install and repair:

  • Manholes up to 12 feet deep (or deeper, as specified)
  • Storm sewer access structures
  • Sanitary sewer tie-ins (where applicable)
  • Confined space access points
  • Structural concrete collars and cone adjustments
  • Frame and cover upgrades
  • Full surface restoration (asphalt or concrete)

Why Deep Manholes Matter

Drainage systems with deep structures are critical for managing large volumes of runoff, connecting main lines, and maintaining system access. Poorly installed or aging manholes can lead to:

  • Pavement collapse or surface failure
  • Standing water and flooding
  • Structural sinkage or shifting
  • Costly emergency repairs

Proper installation ensures long-term function, safety, and regulatory compliance.

What Sets Us Apart

Specialized Equipment
We use heavy-duty excavation tools and lifting systems designed to reach and support deeper structures safely.

OSHA-Compliant Safety Practices
Deep structure work requires confined space protocols, shoring, and trained crews. Safety is non-negotiable, and our team is fully compliant.

Integrated Surface Restoration
We don’t just handle what’s underground. Once your manhole is installed or rehabilitated, we fully restore the surrounding surface with proper grading and jointing — whether it’s asphalt or concrete.

Value-Engineered Solutions
We assess each site to determine the most functional, cost-effective approach — minimizing overbuilding while ensuring performance.
