# General Tree Care **Trade:** Tree Services · **Address:** 254 Turner Rd, East Falmouth, MA 02536 · **Phone:** (508) 548-0850 · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.0/5** (low confidence) — from 3 reviews across 3 sources. ## The honest read General Tree Care is based at 254 Turner Rd in East Falmouth and is identified by BBB as a sole proprietorship run by Mario Fernandes, with 31 years in business reported in its 2026 profile. The customer reviews describe tree cutting and removal work, including taking down three pine trees, chipping wood, removing debris, and cleaning up within a day. Two dated Google reviews from April 2015 praise reliable scheduling, reasonable pricing, and thorough cleanup after tree work. The written record also includes a one-star review dated April 2020 that calls the work sloppy and unprofessional, so the experiences are mixed rather than uniformly positive. Before booking, ask for a current written scope, price, cleanup plan, and recent references, since the detailed reviews are from 2015 and 2020 and do not establish how current the crew or practices are. General Tree Care may suit homeowners seeking local tree cutting or removal, with expectations and workmanship confirmed directly before work begins. **Strengths:** - Tree cutting — reviews describe pine removal and chipping - Debris cleanup — reviewers praise same-day removal and cleanup - Reasonable pricing — one reviewer calls prices very reasonable **Concerns:** - Workmanship — one 2020 review calls work sloppy - Review recency — detailed accounts date from 2015 and 2020 ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - BBB identifies General Tree Care at 254 Turner Rd, East Falmouth, as a sole proprietorship owned by Mario Fernandes and reports 31 years in business. _(confidence: high)_ - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/east-falmouth/profile/tree-service/general-tree-care-0021-100345) — “BBB profile matches General Tree Care at 254 Turner Rd, East Falmouth; it is not accredited, has no BBB rating due to insufficient informati…” - Dated customer reviews describe cutting down pine trees, chipping wood, removing debris, and cleanup. _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://maps.google.com/?cid=9170518500296351068&g_mp=CiVnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLkdldFBsYWNlEAIYBCAA) — “5★ Mario and his crew really know what they are doing.

You get what you pay for. - **5/5 · Google Reviews · Janet Kluever · 2015-04-10**: Mario is the best! Comes when he tells you he will, gives you a price and then cuts the trees down, chips them up and removes all the debris -- don't go anywhere else for tree cutting! A big plus is that his prices are VERY REASONABLE - you won't find a cheaper price anywhere! - **5/5 · Google Reviews · Duane Allman · 2015-04-03**: Mario and his crew really know what they are doing. They cut down three pine trees behind my home and removed all the wood and cleaned up within one day. Plus they were relatively inexpensive. Would definitely recommend them! --- Data freshness: last scanned 2026-08-24T10:18:32.218Z.
