Tree Fell On My Apartment Or Condo Building in University District? We dispatch a local crew fast.

First steps — apartment incident
Get residents out of affected units. Notify the property manager or HOA immediately — most CC&Rs require them to coordinate emergency work on shared structures.
What University District calls typically look like
University District sits in Northeast Seattle and is characterized by century-old landscape trees over dense residential blocks. During Puget Sound windstorms — especially November through February — saturated soils and hard south winds combine to bring down big trees. Calls like “tree fell on apartment building” spike in these windows.
Insurance angle
The building's master policy typically covers structural damage. Renters and unit owners carry their own contents/interior coverage. Coordinate claims through property management.
Ask any contractor for proof of current license and general liability insurance before work begins on your University District property, and confirm coverage details with your homeowners insurance carrier. This is standard consumer guidance for any tree job.
