Augusta, GA sits on red clay in the piedmont and sandy coastal soils and has a humid subtropical climate with about 50" of rain a year. The local water table is higher near the coast and rivers, with mild winter freeze–thaw cycling, and crawl spaces and slabs are common and basements mostly in the north. In practical terms, red clay movement and high rainfall drive foundation and crawl-space moisture issues — which is exactly why septic system service is a common need here.
