Shear Outdoors did a great job for us this week in Rockford, MI. Our septic tank caved in. They came out the morning that I called for a visit to review the condition. They helped guide us thru the emergency situation. They planned the work and executed quickly. After our new tanks were installed and passed inspection they brought our backyard up to grade, reseeded the lawn and covered with straw. I fully recommend them

Shear Outdoors installed a large custom septic system for us at the airport. Was a bit of a unique install as it was designed to be shared for a number of new aircraft hangars. Communication and estimating was done quickly and efficiently. Work was done on-time and for the estimated cost and the crew left the site cleaned up and looking great! Best case scenario when working with a construction vendor like this. Thanks!

We've used Shear Outdoors twice and really liked them both times; Sam was great! They took out our old septic tank, installed two new ones, leveled the ground, and put the yard back together for us. Their pricing was competitive and they were able to get us in quickly when we needed them. Cannot recommend them highly enough!
