Soggy yards and water pooling near your foundation are problems that get worse with every storm. Big Bend Landscaping builds drainage solutions in Oakville, MO, that move water where it belongs. We protect your home, your lawn, and your foundation. Every plan is shaped around your property and its specific trouble spots.
Most yards in this area sit on clay-heavy soil that barely absorbs water, and with 38+ inches of rain falling each year, that’s a real problem. Water lingers, saturates the ground, and starts pressing against foundations before most homeowners notice.
We build drainage systems through French drains, channels, and corrective grading that catch runoff early and move it safely away from your home. Your yard stays firm and usable, no matter what the season brings.
Low-Profile Fixes That Blend In
Our drainage solutions in Oakville, MO, often start with French drains, a quiet fix that hides just below the surface. We set perforated pipe beneath protective landscaping material to catch water before it reaches your foundation.
Systems Built for Your Property
Every yard drains a little differently. Our drainage solutions installation in Oakville begins with a full site review to pinpoint your drainage issues and target them directly. We place each drain and channel exactly where it does the most good.
Solutions Shaped Around a Yard
If standing water keeps lingering after every rain, we build a fix that fits. Our custom drainage solutions in Oakville may combine corrective grading with a dry creek bed or channel drain, blending function with a clean, natural look.
With roots dating back to 1995, Big Bend Landscaping has grown from a small lawn service into a full-service hardscaping company serving clients throughout St. Louis and St. Charles counties.

They were very professional and offered great services. We had a retaining wall installed around the front of our house. They were able to give options, generate plans of what the finished product would look like, and made sure that we selected the rock we wanted. The entire job was done in a timely manner and the project manager was very responsive. Would highly recommend!

We had an delapidated brick patio, retaining wall and stairs torn out and replaced with block and pavers. The end result is stunning and we are very satisfied with the work. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Big Bend Landscaping. Joe was very professional and knowledgeable from the outset. Katie was great assisting us with financing, scheduling and material selections. Kendall was onsight, and the team lead by Bryan was the most hardworking crew we've ever seen. They lost three days to rain and still finished the project in under two weeks. Definitely recommend this company.

Big Bend Landscaping took on the project of building a retaining wall, installing a paver deck and patio and lighting around a newly installed pool. Joe, Kendall, Katie, and JL and his crew made the experience from start to finish easy (for me)! I had a few changes I wanted to make during the project and there was never a problem. They gladly worked with me and got everything I wanted done. They exceeded my expectations. Big Bend also sodded my entire yard. It went from no grass due to the pool construction, to a lush green yard in a day. They completed the entire project in 7 days. JL and his crew are experts in installation, and Joe did a beautiful job on the design.
Thanks to everyone at Big Bend Landscaping!

I love my new patio and retaining wall. The fire pit really sets it all off. Thanks BBL for all your help!

Big Bend Landscaping surpassed our expectations for installing over 1000 square feet of porcelain and concrete pavers in a precise pattern including areas of sand set pavers and areas of mortar base over concrete slabs. The scheme includes flat areas and corresponding caps for retaining walls, with exposed tile edges beveled. The entire project is still in progress as of September, 2024, and is already spectacular. Joe, Kendall, Brayan and team were a pleasure to work with from beginning to completion of their portion of the work, and we are glad to have found them.

Joe, Kendall and the rest of the crew did a great job on our second project with Big Bend Landscaping. Joe created the 3D renderings to confirm the design and Kendall kept us informed and updated throughout the project.

Big Bend Landscaping replaced our crumbling front retaining wall and incorporated all our front beds. They tied in all our front downspouts into a new drainage system and managed to do all of this with minimal damage to my existing vegetation. They were extremely professional and I highly recommend them to anyone who wants great results and communication.

Thank you for our new patio we love it! We couldn’t be happier. Everyone we worked with at Big Bend Landscaping did an amazing job throughout the entire process. The end result is beautiful and it was done quickly and at a very fair price. I’d love to work with Big Bend Landscaping again in the future.

We loved working with Big Bend landscaping. They were always communicative, prompt, and professional. The finished product looked exactly like the rendering that they provided prior to the project starting. Everyone that we worked with went above and beyond to make sure the project was done correctly. I would gladly recommend them.
