A cleanout cover including a mounting ring that is secured to a surface surrounding an opening in a wall or floor through which the cleanout is accessed. Said mounting ring contains means for engaging with a separate dome-shaped cover with complementary engaging locking tabs and slots. The mounting ring is first attached to the adjacent surface. Next, the cover is locked into place over the mounting ring thus forming a fully functioning cleanout cover that does not directly engage with the cleanout plug. When the user desires to access the plumbing system, they simply twist the dome cover in the opposite direction and unlock the tabs located on the cover from the complementary slots located on the mounting ring. The dome cover is thereby removed and the cleanout plug is accessible through the wall.
