    Chad and Randy did an AWESOME job on our retaining wall that presented many challenges. From the timely initial visit and quote, to the design and all the problems our grade and slope created, they were THE BEST. They remained helpful and extremely easy to work with. The wall was perfect in every aspect. Thank you, Chad and Randy!

    Unfortunately I had to euthanize one of my horses on Saturday and if you have ever had to find an excavation service to bury a horse on a Saturday when you're in a pinch good luck. I called the phone number to Always Sharp and got the owner of the company! He was at lunch with his family in Fenton. I explained my situation to Chad and he was very sympathetic to my needs and he was at my farm within a few hours with his excavator! We were able to put the horse to rest which was a huge load off my family's mind.

    Response from the owner

    Thank you for the great review Dennis. Glad we could help.

    Always Sharp-Chad came out and was able to dig a large enough hole for us to bury a horse. He smoothed out the ground where the hole was dug and made it look very nice . Chad is very professional and compassionate. Thank You Always Sharp.

    Response from the owner

    Rachel, thank you for the kind review. We were glad we could help.

Before You Call

If a new septic system is in your plans, one question worth a phone call is whether the perc test and the installation can be scheduled back to back with the same crew. Anyone working toward a closing date may want that timing answer before choosing a contractor.
