Arbor Masters Tree Support Systems

When you have a weak tree that needs support, the team at Arbor Masters can help. Our tree support systems with cabling and bracing can leave a tree stronger and better able to withstand harsh weather conditions like wind and snow storms. We suggest cabling and bracing to correct previous pruning problems and provide reinforcement for your trees.

Cabling and Bracing Protects Your Trees

When you have a tree with weak sections, you need the added protection of cabling and bracing to avoid the problem getting worse or the tree failing in a storm. The team at Arbor Masters is ready to assist you with protecting your trees.

Cabling

We’ll install a high-tension static steel cable or a high-strength dynamic braided nylon cable to support weak branches or co-dominant stem unions.

Bracing

Bracing involves inserting a steel rod through weak branch crotches or through stem unions to provide a better internal structure for a tree.

Why Tree Support Systems are Vital for Your Trees

While many know about tree work like removal or pruning, they may not understand the importance cabling and bracing play in tree care. Some of the reasons you should consider cabling and bracing for your trees include:

Saving Money in the Long Term: Dealing with a tree emergency when a tree fails in a storm and damages your property can be expensive. Cabling and bracing will save you from having to pay for an expensive repair by making trees better able to withstand the elements.

Strengthening a Tree: Trees are an asset to your property, and keeping them strong and able to stand up to the rigors of nature will lower the risk of having to remove them and allow you to appreciate their benefits for longer.

Protecting Your Family and Property: While nothing can make a tree completely safe, cabling and bracing will limit the risk of a tree failing in a storm or injuring someone when a branch breaks off.

What Trees Can Benefit from Support Systems

Not every tree will benefit from cabling and bracing, but for some, installing support systems may be the only way to keep them upright and healthy. Some trees that may need support include:

Trees Near Structures: A branch falling off a tree that is isolated in a field isn’t much of a concern. A tree near a structure dropping a branch can cause plenty of damage. Cabling a tree near a structure can lower the risk of any damage.

Trees with Heavy Limbs: A tree’s limbs may become too long and heavy and become at risk of breaking in a storm. Installing tree support systems can lower the risk of the limbs breaking off.

Trees Suffering Storm Damage: After a storm, sections of the tree may become damaged due to high winds or heavy snow. Our cabling and bracing service can help maintain some of the damaged portions of the tree.

FAQs

Yes, branches may still break after cabling. Tree support systems are designed to limit the risk of failure but cannot make a tree 100 percent safe.

No, your trees should still look aesthetically pleasing after we install cables or braces. When a tree is fully leafed out, you likely won’t even be able to notice any wires.

You should have an arborist examine any tree support system regularly to see if it needs replacement. Cables will lose their effectiveness over time as they wear down and the tree continues to grow.

Cabling can be done as a stand-alone service, while bracing is often used in conjunction with cabling to stabilize a tree.
