Why Drainage Problems Are Common in Broken Arrow
Broken Arrow’s soil is predominantly heavy clay — soil that becomes nearly impermeable when saturated. Unlike sandy soils that drain quickly, clay soil holds water for days or weeks after heavy rain. Combined with Broken Arrow’s relatively flat terrain in many areas and Oklahoma’s intense spring rainfall, yard drainage problems are extremely common.
Drainage + Hardscape Integration
The best time to address drainage is during a patio or outdoor living project. We can integrate drainage solutions — French drains, catch basins, and proper grading — with your patio installation, ensuring your new hardscape actually improves your yard’s drainage rather than creating new problems. Many homeowners who come to us with drainage issues end up with a beautiful new outdoor living space in addition to solving their water problems.
