Testimonials
What Our Happy Clients Are Saying
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
After contacting a number of arborists to remove some shrubbery and juniper trees close to my house, Matt was the first one to respond and show up! He was able to remove them right on the spot and took the trees away the very next day. I was very impressed with his price and the speed & attention to get the job done. I would gladly use Nortree Arborists again for any tree issues on my property.

Matt did a great job taking down two trees that were hanging over my house. He took time to explain the different cuts he was doing to get the trees to fall safely. I highly recommend Nortree.

Had my trees trimmed and evergreen bushes as well. Clean, professional, timely, and exactly what we discussed is what he did. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a fall/spring haircut on trees and evergreens

Common Questions
Hazardous Tree Questions From Barrie Homeowners
How do I know if my Barrie tree is hazardous?
Signs of a hazardous tree include large dead branches, significant lean toward a structure, cracks or splits in the trunk, mushrooms or fungus at the base, hollow areas, root damage or heaving soil, and major dieback in the canopy. If you spot any of these on a tree near your Barrie home, call us for a free assessment.
What should I do if a tree falls on my Barrie home?
Stay clear of the tree and any downed power lines. If a hydro line is involved, call Alectra Utilities or your local provider immediately and stay back. Once the area is safe, call Nortree at 705-440-0507 for emergency tree removal. We can also help document the damage for your insurance claim.
Is hazardous tree removal covered by home insurance?
In many cases yes — especially when a tree has fallen on a structure like your home, garage, or fence. Coverage details vary by policy. We recommend calling your insurance provider, and we can provide written quotes and documentation that support your claim.
How fast can you respond to a Barrie tree emergency?
We prioritize emergency calls across Barrie and aim to respond as quickly as possible — often same-day for urgent situations like trees on homes or blocking driveways. Call 705-440-0507 directly and we’ll assess the situation immediately.
