Dynamis is a Greek word associated with the synonyms: power, capability, and potentiality. We believe this term is integral to the way we serve our customers. Our problem solving and execution bring efficiencies that empower our customers to reach their goals. We have been in business since 1998 serving the commercial environmental, petroleum, and waste-water sectors. We have an extensive background in excavation. We are now taking that experience, service, and knowledge that our commercial clients have come to expect from us and expanding into residential/small business excavation.

"We are so pleased with our project of a new driveway. The guys did an awesome job creating a new driveway to connect to the original driveway; cut down numerous trees; hauled in many truck loads of gravel for the 1 mile driveway. Yisrael and Jade kept us informed the entire time on the project and even sent us pictures. We could not have asked for anything more and the quality of work was exceptional! This was a huge project. We will use them again in the near future for more work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Septic tanks are typically buried between four inches and four feet deep, depending on the property, the soil, and the size of the tank. When the septic tank is buried on the deeper end of this range, it may be harder for you to locate it on your own with a soil probe or just by observing the yard for signs of the tank. However, if you have trouble finding the septic tank, a pro will be happy to help you.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
