Cabling and Bracing
Mitigating hazards and reducing risk of failure. Cabling and bracing are support methods used in trees. We properly diagnose your tree and take into account many variables in order to give you, the customer, all of the options. Sometimes that option is full removal or heavy pruning of suspect limbs. Some trees are great candidates for one of these methods and are worth saving. It is your choice, and we will help you determine the best course of action for you and your trees.
Cabling
Lends support to a trees’ structure which are at a higher risk of failure. Think of crotches in multiple-stemmed trees, or large limbs whose failure could compromise the integrity of the entire tree.
- limits excessive movement during ice and wind events
- reduces risk of failure – mitigates hazards
- can keep your tree on the landscape
*Cables should be inspected visually every 2 years, and physically by a climber every 4 years.
Bracing
For trees that have already somewhat failed structurally or that have cracks, or show signs of cracking. Usually these are due to crotches splitting, but not failing entirely.
- provides substantial holding power
- prevents further cracking
- reduces risk of complete failure
We look forward to meeting you and discussing your needs.

I wanted to let you know how impressed I am with how carefully you and your crew took those trees down. When we first set it up I knew the location was going to be tricky but then my plants started to grow and I wasn’t sure how they would fare. I was pleasantly surprised when I came home. Thank you.
I had hoped to get a chance to talk with you. I have a couple of questions about trees and I am interested in learning more about Kawing Crow.
