Tree Removal in Northern ID

When a tree starts leaning toward your roof, or a windstorm drops a branch across your driveway, you don’t want to wait around wondering who to call. Timber Valley Tree Co. is a local crew based right here in Blanchard, and we know how quickly a tree problem can turn into an emergency. Our tree removal service is about keeping your property safe, clearing space for new projects, and making sure everything is cleaned up before we leave.

When Professional Tree Removal is Required

Living in Northern Idaho means dealing with snow that snaps branches, winds that topple pines, and roots that can push up sidewalks or damage septic lines. Around Blanchard Lake, Spirit Lake, and out toward the Washington border, we see the same issues come up:

• Dead or decaying trees that could fall anytime
• Overgrown branches hanging too close to homes or power lines
• Trees standing in the way of new garages, shops, or fences
• Storm-damaged trees blocking driveways or yards

Our team is used to these challenges and has the equipment to handle everything from small yard trees to tall timber on larger acreage.

Tree Removal Service

Tree removal is more than just cutting a trunk. Every job starts with a walk-around to see what’s nearby—roofs, sheds, fences, and other trees. Then we plan the safest way to take the tree down in sections.

Here’s what you can expect:

• A careful plan before cutting begins
• Safe rigging and climbing when needed
• Equipment sized for both tight backyards and open land
• Complete cleanup of logs, branches, and sawdust
• Options for hauling the wood away or leaving it cut for firewood

We leave your yard tidy and ready for whatever’s next.

Emergency Tree Service

Idaho winters can be rough. One heavy snowfall or ice storm can leave trees split or leaning dangerously. When that happens, our emergency crew responds quickly—day or night.

We’re ready to:

• Remove trees or limbs blocking driveways or private roads
• Clear branches off roofs, sheds, or vehicles
• Stabilize dangerous situations until a full removal is possible

If you wake up to a tree problem, we’re already close by.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Not every problem means a full removal. Regular trimming keeps trees healthier and reduces the chance of future breakage. We provide trimming and pruning to:

• Clear branches away from roofs and power lines
• Improve sunlight and airflow in your yard
• Shape trees for safer, stronger growth

For many homeowners, seasonal pruning means avoiding bigger problems down the road.

Stump Grinding & Removal

Once a tree is gone, the stump can be a real nuisance. It gets in the way of mowing, attracts pests, and sometimes sends up unwanted shoots.

We offer two solutions:

• Stump Grinding – We grind the stump below ground level, cover it with soil or mulch, and leave the area smooth.
• Stump Removal – For projects where the roots are in the way of new construction, we can dig out the entire stump and root system.

Either way, you’ll have a clean space to work with.

Brush & Lot Clearing

Many properties around Northern Idaho sit on wooded lots. When it’s time to clear space for a home site, pasture, or shop, we bring in the right equipment to handle thick brush and overgrowth.

Our lot clearing service includes:

• Cutting and hauling brush and small trees
• Clearing fencelines and access roads
• Preparing sites for building or landscaping
• Creating defensible space around cabins and lake properties

Storm Damage Cleanup

After strong winds or a wet snow load, it’s common to see trees down across yards, pastures, or lakefront property. Our storm cleanup service handles:

• Cutting and hauling away downed trees
• Clearing snapped limbs from yards and driveways
• On-site chipping for mulch if requested

Because we live here, too, we’re able to respond quickly when storms roll through.

Fire Prevention Services

Wildfire risk is part of life in North Idaho. Our fire prevention services focus on creating defensible space around homes and cabins. That means:

• Removing dead or hazardous trees near structures
• Clearing brush and ladder fuels
• Thinning trees to slow fire spread

It’s peace of mind for homeowners who want their property safer before fire season.

Common Questions

How much does tree removal cost?
It depends on the size of the tree, where it’s located, and how tricky the removal is. We give free estimates after seeing the job in person.

Will you haul everything away?
Yes. Some folks ask us to leave cut logs for firewood, but otherwise, we take care of hauling and cleanup.

Do you work with insurance if a tree causes damage?
We do. If a storm-damaged tree hits a structure, we can coordinate with your insurance company during the process.

What if I just want branches trimmed back?
That’s no problem—we offer trimming and pruning to reduce risk without removing the whole tree.
