Spencer Tellkamp

Chief Executive Officer

Spencer has grown up working with his dad in the excavating business, and the passion only grew after graduating from high school. He attended Pensacola Christian College & Muskegon Community College (MCC) after graduation. While studying business at MCC, he interned at Newaygo Insurance Agency, which turned into a full time position. In 2017, Spencer decided to go back to work with his dad and the family business, and in 2021, Spencer and his wife, India, purchased Dan's Excavating, and continue to build upon Dan's success. Beyond his passion for his work and his clients, Spencer and his wife, India, enjoy spending time with their son and their dog, Rouge.

Dan Tellkamp

Senior Project Manager

Meet Dan, founder of the “Professional Digg Force”. In 1997, Dan decided he wanted to start his own business in his hometown of Grant, MI. Over twenty five years later, he still loves what he does. His background in the construction & farm industry started at the early age of ten when he started work on a local dairy farm. That early beginning was the start of a life long passion for dirt, crops, cows, and big equipment that roll black smoke!

Some of Dan’s hobbies are taking care of his cows, snowmobiling, being involved with his church and spending time with his five children (many of whom are involved with the family business) and wife of 30+ years, Jackie. If you see Dan rolling down the road, be sure to wave or honk on your way by!
