Tree Care Services: Cabling and Bracing

Cabling and bracing is the addition of support systems consisting of wire cables, threaded rods, and other materials to ameliorate structural weaknesses in trees. Many trees that appear physiologically healthy develop structural weaknesses such as poorly attached branches and minor decay that compromise the structural integrity of the tree.  Properly installed cabling and bracing systems can help restore the trees’ structural integrity.
