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."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A septic system can fail for various reasons, and most commonly, excessive water use or sudden surges in wastewater can overwhelm the system's capacity. Neglecting regular maintenance, like tank pumping and inspections, can also lead to clogs, leaks, and eventual breakdowns. Other issues that lead to failure include age-related wear and tear, root infiltration, improper disposal of non-biodegradable materials or chemicals into the system, unsuitable soil conditions, physical damage, and even environmental factors like flooding or soil erosion.

Most deep wells can be expected to last somewhere between 30 and 50 years. This assumes that the well and all of its components are properly maintained on a regular basis. During this time, it is unlikely that modern deep wells will run dry over the course of their typical lifespan. That is one of the biggest benefits of digging a deeper well. 

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

A septic tank should be emptied approximately once every three to five years, though this frequency will vary depending on your water usage, the size of your tank, how many people are in your home, and other factors. A maintenance plan for your septic system may be useful for professional emptying and inspection of other important parts.

Perc rates vary dramatically, and a good perc rate could be anything from 5 minutes per inch of drainage to 60 minutes per inch. The lower the number, the faster your system will drain and the more effective it will be. A 60-minute-per-inch drain rate is the highest number considered to be good, or even allowable, draining.
