The present invention relates to compactor mechanism for compacting of aggregate material about a pipe in a trench, the pipe having a predetermined pipe gradient, wherein the compactor mechanism comprises a single powered compacting element, the compacting element being configured to be moveable in a reciprocating motion along the length of a placed pipe for simultaneously compacting the aggregate to a pre-defined minimum density about the bed and sides of the pipe along the length of the pipe to maintain the pipe gradient.
