About
Built on Nebraska Water Since 1998
Outback Construction is a marine construction contractor based in Colon, Nebraska, owned and operated by Matt Wesch. Since 1998, we've done one thing: build and repair the structures where Nebraska properties meet the water — boat docks, seawalls, retaining walls, beaches, and the barge work that makes hard-to-reach projects possible.
Why owner-operated matters
When you hire Outback, you're hiring Matt — not a salesman who hands your project to a rotating crew. Matt walks your shoreline, designs the fix, and is on the job. That's why the recommendations are honest (we're not paying a sales commission), the communication is direct (you have the owner's number), and the work holds up (his name is on it).
