Tree Bracing & Tree Cabling Systems in Portland, OR

Our tree cabling and tree bracing services

If you’ve been told a tree is in danger of falling or that a tree on your property has weak limbs that need to be trimmed, let’s talk.

While in some cases tree removal or pruning will be the best option, often bracing and tree cabling are all it takes to keep your tree structurally sound, healthy and happy.

Our professionally installed tree cabling and tree bracing systems:

• • Prevent broken and lost limbs
• • Minimize the risk of tree/branch failure
• • Provide protection to anything beneath the tree: home, property, people, and pets
• • Straighten a tree that is tilted or leaning
• • Add strength and support to the tree during ice, snow, and wind storms throughout the seasons

We are available to work throughout the Portland metro area. Call (503) 929-9437 to talk about your project and to request a quote.

Put your trust in our tree cabling professionals

We have years of experience caring for and bracing/cabling trees in Portland. Less experienced tree care professionals have been known to cable a tree too tightly, causing damage to the tree at the cabling/bracing site. And if the cable is too slack, it’s not doing its job to keep the tree strong and steady. We’ve braced hundreds of trees and know how to do the job right.

Every tree cabling job we tackle requires a unique approach guided by the needs of your tree, the layout of your property, and other factors. We’ll carefully assess the health of your tree, answer any questions you have, and create a plan that’s in your best interests.

“Can cables and braces ever be removed?”

This all depends on the needs and health of your tree. In some cases, the tree cabling system can be removed in the future — like how a cast gets taken off when a broken bone heals. We generally recommend regular inspections and care for any tree we have braced or cabled. This allows us to make any needed adjustments and to monitor changes in the tree’s health.

“Can tree cabling be used to keep a dead tree from falling?”

If a tree is dead, cabling will not be an effective solution. The best option will be to reduce or remove it as safely as possible before it falls or breaks apart.

“My tree is leaning and partially uprooted. Can it be saved?”

It’s possible that bracing the tree to straighten it can encourage the root system to take hold again. Over time this may correct the problem of a leaning tree, allowing you to enjoy a healthy tree for decades to come.
