Why Spartanburg Properties Need
Upstate-Ready Storage
The Upstate Piedmont gets about 49 inches of rain per year. That rain comes in heavy summer
bursts that dump an inch or more in thirty minutes. Standing water pools across flat lots. Creek
bottoms flood. Lawson Fork Creek and the Pacolet River both push water into surrounding
neighborhoods during big storms.
Red clay is everywhere in Spartanburg County. It holds water on the surface, gets slick when wet
and cracks when dry. A shed sitting flat on clay will settle unevenly after the first hard rain.
Doors jam. The floor warps. Moisture creeps up from underneath.
Our concrete block pier foundation solves this. We elevate every building off the ground and let
air circulate underneath. Water drains instead of pooling. The floor stays dry. The building
stays level even as that clay expands and contracts through wet and dry cycles.
Winter isn't extreme in Spartanburg, but ice storms hit the Upstate every few years. The 2014 and
2024 storms coated everything. A shed built with quality fasteners and proper joint work handles
the freeze-thaw cycle without splitting or popping nails. Cheap hardware store sheds fall apart
after two or three Upstate winters.
Spartanburg also sits along the I-85 corridor between Charlotte and Greenville. The area is
growing fast. Boiling Springs, Duncan and Lyman have seen major residential development over the
last decade. New homes on half-acre lots need storage that the builder didn't include. That's
where we come in.
