Asphalt Overlay Bixby

Why Bixby Businesses Choose Us

Bixby is famous for two things: sod farms and challenging clay soil—and they're directly connected. The same deep, rich clay that makes Bixby the 'Garden Spot of Oklahoma' and supports operations like Easton Sod Farms and Green Acre Sod is also why Bixby parking lots and commercial slabs crack more than almost anywhere else in the Tulsa metro. This expansive clay soil behaves like a sponge that never stops moving—swelling dramatically when Oklahoma's rains come, then shrinking and cracking during summer drought. The ground can shift several inches seasonally, putting tremendous lateral and vertical stress on concrete that wasn't designed to handle it. Many Bixby property owners have watched their parking lots develop major cracks within just a few years of installation because the original contractor used inadequate reinforcement. TulsaCrete combats Bixby's aggressive clay with upgraded reinforcement—often specifying 1/2" rebar instead of standard 3/8", tighter grid spacing, and thicker slabs in high-load areas like loading docks and drive lanes. We also address drainage aggressively, ensuring water moves away from your slab rather than soaking into the clay beneath it. The combination of 4000+ PSI concrete, enhanced rebar, and proper sub-grade preparation gives Bixby commercial properties the fighting chance they need against this unforgiving soil.
