ABOUT CABLING & BRACING
a cable OR BRACE can be a great way to maintain a tree that may otherwise need to be removed.
A tree cable is a support system that reduces stress on a defective part of a tree. When employed in conjunction with pruning techniques, a cable can be a great way to maintain a tree that may otherwise need to be removed. Thornton Tree Solutions can advise you if your tree is a good candidate for a cable support system.
A brace is a length of threaded rod that is drilled through the tree where it is at risk of splitting apart. The rod is capped with hardware on either end to “bolt” the split together. Effective bracing is usually done with two or more rods and is best employed as part of a maintenance plan including pruning and cabling. The experts at Thornton Tree Solutions will gladly advise if this is the right plan for your tree.
if you are looking to extend the life of a mature or damaged tree, cabling and bracing might be able to help.
