Know before you buy
The interior height varies due to the rock's asymmetrical design, reaching up to 7.5 inches at its highest point on the right side. We recommend measuring the total height of your septic riser or skimmer from the ground to ensure it fits comfortably underneath.
Yes, the fiberglass composite construction is easy to drill. You can customize the rock to create an entry or exit point for hoses, wires, or conduits as needed for your specific setup.
The rock is designed with a wind-resistant shape that helps it remain stable in typical outdoor conditions. While it is lightweight at 12 pounds for easy placement, you can add weight inside or stake it down if you live in an area with exceptionally strong winds.

Each rock features a unique, hand-painted finish in natural grey and tan tones, which helps it blend into garden beds much better than mass-produced, uniform alternatives. While it is clearly a decorative cover, the textured finish provides a convincing, rustic look.
