Tiling on/around an inpection chamber access cover

[Unregistered]

I will shortly be undertaking a renovation at home to revamp a utlity area, the snag I have is that in the middle of the floor there is a 650 x 500 inspection/access cover. I need to level the floor before tiling it & obviously cannot tile over the inspection cover, but is there a product or a replacement cover on the market that will allow me to raise the height to tile up to & around it or a recessed lid that can be tiled into & if so where can I buy it? Thanks in advance all advice gladly accepted.
cheers

You can use the block paving ones and tile into it.

Yes Andy, that looks exactly like what I need for the project, what are they called, where can I get one & how much are they? Thanks

 

[Andy Allen]

its just an infill manhole cover and you can get them from any builders merchants

 

[doddy41]

They are called recessed manhole covers

You will need to screed in the tray but only allow the depth of the tile and addy.

Make sure that you buy a double seal cover. It has to be to comply with building regs. This will stop nasty smells rising from the drain. A normal block paving or recessed cover is not suitable for internal use.
