    Concrete Patio
    I would like to build a concrete paver patio in my yard. The problem is the septic tank cover will be in the middle of the patio. It will be raised about 1 inch above the patio pavers. I would like to build the patio over it but construct something that would allow easy access to the cover. When I moved into the house the cover was buried about a foot and had to be dug up. At that time we put a raiser on it to bring it up to ground level.

    Any suggestions.

    How about making a wooden planter to put over it?
