Main Line Tree Cabling and Bracing Service

If your tree experiences high winds or excessive ice and snow weight, cabling and bracing may be necessary. After our arborists examine and evaluate the main trunk and limb angles for integrity, steel cables are inserted between major limbs to help with supporting the tree. For trees that encounter wind torque cracks, trunk rot, and lightning damage, bracing can be used to give support to the tree and reduce strain from twisting. This involves inserting a metal rod through the crotch while two additional cables are inserted above it. By using only the most current approved anchors and thru bolts, we can provide safety and stability in your trees for years to come.

Arader Tree follows the American National Standards Institute's guidelines for cabling, bracing, and guying trees. We use eye bolts that go completely through limbs and branches, and dedicate only one cable per branch. We take the growth habits, environment, and diet of trees into consideration when considering cabling and bracing for trees. All angles, hardware alignment, and cable tension are checked for accuracy often.
