What the crews handle
Tree Removal Pros Spokane handles five kinds of work across residential and commercial properties: tree removal — the core of the operation — plus tree trimming and pruning, stump grinding, emergency tree service, and land and lot clearing. In practice that means the dead ponderosa the beetles got to, the maple grown into the service drop, the stump that keeps sending up shoots, the trunk that came down across a driveway at midnight, and the timbered lot that needs to become a building site or a defensible space. Removals run in controlled sections — limbs rigged and lowered away from roofs, fences, and lines rather than dropped free — and every job ends with the brush chipped, the wood hauled, and the yard raked.
How estimates and dispatch work
Every job starts with a call to (509) 215-2692 or a request through the free-estimate form. The line is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, because Spokane's worst tree weather works nights and weekends: storm damage and fallen tree calls are dispatched around the clock, while routine work gets scheduled at a time that suits you. Estimates are free and carry no obligation. The tree, the access, and whatever sits beneath it get looked at, and you get one written price for the complete job — cutting, hauling, and cleanup included — before anything is scheduled. Two standing rules shape every dispatch: if a tree or limb is touching a power line, Avista gets called before any tree crew, and if a trim will honestly solve what a removal quote was chasing, the trim is what gets quoted.
Where the work happens
The service is based in Spokane, WA and covers roughly a 30-mile radius across Spokane County — serving Spokane, Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Cheney, Mead, and Deer Park, and the surrounding areas between them. That footprint spans real variety: century-old street trees over Browne's Addition mansions, the South Hill's dense pine canopy, the Valley's mature ponderosas on fast-draining gravel, wind-exposed lots on the Cheney plains, and timbered acreage around Mead and Deer Park. It is kept deliberately tight so a storm call anywhere inside it can be reached at any hour.
Why Spokane needs its own kind of tree service
This region is documented tree-hazard country. The November 17, 2015 windstorm gusted to 71 mph and toppled roughly 1,900 trees inside Spokane's city limits alone — mostly mature ponderosas, many onto homes and power lines — causing the largest outage in Avista's history, and a January 2021 windstorm repeated the pattern. Ice Storm '96 damaged about 5,000 of the city's 70,000 street and park trees beyond saving. The physics behind those numbers hasn't changed: 100-foot pines root shallow in gravelly Missoula Floods outwash over basalt bedrock, so when the wind comes — and it comes almost every year between November and January — whole root plates go over, not just limbs. Add the current bark beetle die-off in drought-stressed pines, which has the city issuing homeowner advisories and Spokane Parks removing hundreds of dead ponderosas, and the case for a tree service built around exactly these conditions makes itself. When one of those problems shows up in your yard, the estimate is free and the phone is answered — any hour.
