New and replacement septic systems, including the permit and system design.
Homes around St. Cloud and across Osceola County sit on sandy soils and a seasonal high water table. Septic Installation here means designing, permitting and installing a new tank and drain field sized for the house and the lot. This page lists 9 septic companies that serve St. Cloud (population 58,964).
St. Cloud has about 16,406 single-family detached houses. When a septic system on one of those lots fails beyond repair, or a house is added onto, the replacement needs a permit and a design that fits the lot and soil.
