Not something to be rushed. No point in digging soakaway, channels etc if the soil is so clay based that the water wont soakaway anyway. Firstly, try a few small test holes down 2 or 3 feet (best done in the winter) if they fill with water, then a soakaway wont work. A sump and a pump may be the alternative if it is a real problem.
