STRUCTURAL SUPPORT & SAFETY

Helping Trees Stand Strong

Keep Your Trees Standing Strong

Sometimes, trees need a little support to keep them safe and growing strong.

That's where we come in.

Our cabling and bracing services reinforce weak areas, preserve your important trees, and prevent costly damage.

Why Trees Need Support

Trees with structural flaws like poor branching, cracked limbs, decay, or inadequate roots have an elevated risk of failure. Heavy limbs and branches can further stress weak structures. Past improper pruning also causes issues. When defective areas give way, falling branches or even whole trees can damage anything below.

How Cabling Stabilizes Trees

Tree cabling involves installing high-strength cable supports to reinforce weak areas and improve structure. Cables can support branches that are split or have poor attachments that make them prone to breaking.

By attaching cables between weak branches and adjacent stronger branches or the trunk, the weight is more evenly distributed, stabilizing branches most vulnerable to breaking.

Properly installed cabling by our certified arborists can guide trees to grow stronger by reducing weight on weak codominant stems or long, extended branches.

This progressive improvement can prevent branch failures as trees mature.

Reasons Your Trees Might Need a Little Support

Poor structure from past damage or improper pruning.

Weak branch attachments and codominant stems.

Root damage that destabilizes the tree.

Preventive support for high-risk trees.

Bracing for weakened trunks.

Structural Support Doesn’t Mean “Set It and Forget It”

Since hardware we use for tree cabling and bracing is exposed, it can become less effective due to your tree’s natural growth and environmental factors. Additionally, the regular motion and expansion of branches or trunks have the potential to induce wear on cables and hardware, reducing their capacity to bear loads.

That’s why cabling and bracing hardware should be inspected annually to ensure its integrity and effectiveness. Yearly hardware and installation assessments can identify potential problems that could lead to property damage or injury.

Don’t Wait Until the Damage is Done!

Our goal is to reinforce weak areas to prevent catastrophic, uncontrolled failures that endanger people and property. 

Our certified arborists are trained and highly skilled in tree risk assessment cabling and bracing. And our hardware installation is so discrete many of our customers can’t even see it.
