Tree Cabling & Bracing: Protecting and Strengthening Your Trees

Welcome to Betzy’s Tree Care

At Betzy’s Tree Care, we understand that not all trees grow in a perfectly stable way. Some trees, whether due to age, structural defects, or external damage, require additional support to maintain their integrity and prevent potential hazards. That's where tree cabling Portland comes into play. Tree cabling and bracing are two essential techniques that can help reinforce weak or damaged trees, allowing them to continue growing safely and healthily.

Tree cabling and bracing involve the installation of specialized hardware, such as steel cables or rods, to stabilize trees with split trunks, weak branches, or structural imbalances. This process is especially useful for preserving trees that might otherwise need to be removed due to instability. In this guide, we’ll discuss the benefits of tree cabling and bracing, the situations in which these services are necessary, and how Betzy’s Tree Care can help you protect your valuable trees.

Types of Tree Cabling & Bracing Services We Offer

Tree Cabling

1. Tree Cabling

Tree cabling involves installing flexible steel cables high in the tree canopy to provide additional support to weak or heavy limbs. This technique is particularly effective for trees with long branches that are at risk of breaking under their own weight or during storms. Cabling helps redistribute the weight and reduce the stress on vulnerable parts of the tree.

Tree Bracing

2. Tree Bracing

Tree bracing uses steel rods to reinforce structurally compromised trees, such as those with splits or cracks in their trunks. By installing these rods through the weakened sections, we can help prevent further splitting and support the tree’s structural integrity. Bracing is often combined with cabling to offer the tree maximum support.
