History of Dale's Maintenance

Serving Spokane and surrounding areas since 1981.

Dale's Maintenance is a family oriented business serving Spokane and surrounding areas since 1981.

The business was started by Dale and Judy Abbs.  Dale lost his battle with cancer in 1988 but until that time he enjoyed his second love (Judy being the first), pleasure fishing in Alaska.  Judy is retired now and lives in the Spokane Valley.  She is still a corporate officer of Dale's Maintenance and her input is always appreciated.

Bill and Sharon Ellis purchased the business from Dale and Judy April Fool's Day 1988.  At the time, Dale and Judy were preparing for retirement and the business consisted of two painters and half a maintenance man.  Over time the business has developed into a full service maintenance and remodeling company.  Now there are flooring, painting and maintenance departments managed by very capable individuals and staffed by a team of qualified men and women.

Bill's untimely death in 2004 required Sharon to manage the company.  She was fortunate enough to have strong people help her through the transition.  In house people, Banner Bank and several loyal customers weathered the storm until Dale's Maintenance adjusted to the loss of Bill.

Currently Sharon is semi-retired and Jody Schuler and Kathy Sims have taken over the daily operation.  Dale's Maintenance also has Lori Rayburn, Flooring Manager and George Orne, Painting Manager as players on a very winning team.

Dale's Maintenance can offer "one-stop shopping" for most remodeling and necessary upkeep jobs for both business and residential customers.  Our rates are very reasonable, our guarantee of the work we finish and our experience qualify us as the best number for help in your telephone file.

We are able to co-ordinate a project from estimate to completion.  In the event you have some job request we are unable to do in house, we have available a number of sub contractors we can either recommend or co-ordinate with to complete your request.

As we enter our 27th year of service we look forward to a future full of happy customers and successfully completed projects - large and small.
