Mound Septic Systems

Mound Septic Systems in Spartanburg

Some lots have a high water table or shallow soil over bedrock, which leaves no room for a buried drain field to filter effluent properly. A mound system solves that by building the drain field up, in an engineered bed of sand above the natural ground, so treated wastewater still passes through enough soil before it reaches the water table. Sourire-espoir designs mound systems for the trickiest sites in Spartanburg County.

Why Homeowners Choose a Mound

• Fits hard sites. A mound works where high groundwater or rock rules out a conventional or aerobic field.
• Protects groundwater. The engineered sand guarantees the treatment depth the soil cannot provide.
• Code-compliant. For many marginal lots, a mound is the only design the county will permit.

Our Process

A mound starts with a detailed soil and site evaluation, because the design has to be engineered to the specific conditions. After the Spartanburg County permit is issued, we set the tank and pump chamber, build the sand mound to spec, install the pressure distribution network, and cap it. The inspector reviews the finished mound near the 29307 area before final grading.
