About Asheville Drain Field Pros

Asheville Drain Field Pros is a locally owned septic system contractor working unsewered ground in and around Asheville, North Carolina. We replace failed drain fields, repair the parts of a system that are still worth repairing, install complete systems on new sites, replace tanks, build mound and alternative systems where a conventional field will not fit, arrange the soil work and design, repair lines and baffles, and take on commercial jobs. We are licensed and insured in North Carolina.

The part of this work that matters is under the grass and nobody photographs it. Trench bottoms get shot level, because a bottom that falls sends every gallon to the low end and kills that trench first. Chambers or gravelless product sit flat on undisturbed soil, not on a smeared bottom a bucket polished shut. An effluent filter goes in the tank outlet, so the solids that end a field early never leave the tank. Risers bring the lids to grade so the next person can service it with a screwdriver instead of a shovel.

Asheville gives a septic designer a problem the flatland markets do not have. The buildable ground is side slope, the soil over rock is thin, and between the two sits saprolite, rock weathered in place that behaves like neither. Depth to rock is the number everything bends around here, the way a frost line is the number further north. It varies across a single lot, which is why two neighbors on one road end up with two different systems at two different prices, and neither of them got a bad deal.

We also say no out loud. A routine tank cleanout is a pump truck's work and we do not take those calls. A backup with dry ground outside and no alarm is interior drain work for a plumber. A field whose soil has sealed does not get restored by anything poured down a toilet, and we will tell you that even when you were hoping for a different answer. And we never promise a permit approval or a date, because the county issues those and we do not.
