Tree Cabling & Bracing Services

Strengthen and Stabilize Your Trees with Expert Support Systems

Trees are living structures that can develop weak points over time, especially as they grow large or are exposed to high winds, storms, or heavy snow. At Todd's Tree Service, we offer professional tree cabling and bracing solutions to help protect your trees from structural failure and prolong their life.

Cabling is a technique that connects two large branches using a high-strength, bolted steel cable. This method allows the branches to move together as a single unit, reducing the risk of them separating and breaking during high winds or heavy loads. 

Braces are threaded rods used to provide added structural support to trees during severe weather. Our licensed arborists can install a mechanical brace rod through the lower section of a structural defect or co-dominant stem. This reinforcement helps prevent further damage and reduces the risk of tree failure.

When Is Cabling or Bracing Needed?

Our certified arborists may recommend cabling or bracing if your tree has the following:

• Co-dominant stems (two main trunks growing from one point)
• Cracks or splits in major limbs or the trunk
• Signs of structural weakness
• Heavy limbs extending over your home, driveway, or other property
• Trees that have previously suffered storm damage
