Mike's Tree Services LLC

Mike's Tree Services LLC is a Cape Cod tree-care company based in Sandwich, run by owner Mike DeFazio. Homeowners call for everything from routine pruning to large, hazardous tree removal and stump grinding, often on tight yards or hard-to-reach lots. The record is unusually deep and consistent: Google shows a 4.9-star average across 116 ratings, built on 90 reviews collected since 2023 across two platforms, with three more in the last six months and none negative. Recommendations often run in families and among neighbors -- several reviewers say a parent or a neighbor referred them before they called. Reviewers repeatedly single out fair, transparent pricing and fast response, with quotes turned around within hours and crews on-site the same day or within 24 hours in several accounts, including one homeowner reached on a Sunday after storm damage. The crew is trusted with genuinely difficult work: removing large oaks wedged between two houses, clearing twenty trees over two days on a hard-to-access, conservation-restricted lot, and reaching a large dead pine tree by cutting a path through the woods rather than crossing the customer's own yard. Named crew members recur across the reviews, including Curt for stump grinding and Shay on the multi-day removal. Cleanup is a recurring theme -- homeowners repeatedly describe the property left spotless, "as if never there," down to sawdust and debris cleared from the road. A number of customers report using the company repeatedly over several years for different jobs. One thing worth asking about: a single 1-star Google review -- from someone who does not clearly identify as a hired customer -- describes tree-cutting and stump-grinding noise starting before 7am and objects to the early hour. It's an isolated complaint about scheduling courtesy rather than the quality of the work, and nothing like it appears anywhere else in the review history. For a Cape Cod homeowner weighing anything from a simple trim to a hazardous large-tree removal, this is a contractor with an unusually consistent record of fair pricing, careful cleanup, and repeat business -- worth confirming current availability and preferred start times for the specific job.
