Septic Systems done right in Tehama

BC Brown General Engineering has handled septic work across Tehama and Tehama County since 1999. Tehama is a historic little town right on the Sacramento River, and that local knowledge shapes how we approach every job here.

High groundwater near Tehama changes septic entirely. Mounds and engineered systems replace standard trenches when the water table demands it, and the county requires designs that prove separation.

Near the river at Tehama, a high water table and setbacks from surface water are the key constraints. We profile the soil, keep required separation from groundwater, and often install engineered or mound systems where a conventional field will not pass.

Tehama is north along the Sacramento River, so we mobilize crews and equipment there regularly and keep our response times short. We pull the septic permits through Tehama County Environmental Health, handle the perc testing and design coordination, and see the job through final inspection so you are not chasing paperwork.
