hi
Does anyone the correct way (i.e. that building control will accept?) of blocking off a disused inlet inside a plastic inspection chamber. I have removed the downstairs loo from my house and wish to cap of the inlet inside the chamber. I know that you can buy caps that can be fitted on to the outside of the chamber but this would mean digging the chamber up. Is there a simple permanent and acceptable way of sealing off this outlet from inside the manhole cover? Many thanks in advance for any help as this is driving me mad...
 
I would think you may have to leave the pipe in situ and cap it at the house end, or like you say you may end up with a bit of digging.
 
tap the cap in fm the chamber side? if it fits it outside why not inside
