Indoor manholes

[dazzlerpalmer]

I have a utility room that has a lino floor.
I am thinking of tiling the floor. Can you buy indoor manhole covers that you can insert tiles in.

Also am I right in thinking that if the sewers block then the cover will lift filling the ground floor of the house will sh*t?

Why put manholes indoors?

You can indeed. Checkout the "recessed tray" type here.

I just happen to have this link handy as I found it earlier on while replying to this post

I don't think so as they are "double sealed locking as standard", but don't quote me on that

you need a double seal double cover manhole that allows you to insert tiles flush with the floor level, the double seal will prevent any sewage entering the property
