Diamond Tree Company would like to educate you on what Cabling and Bracing actually is, and the reasons that you would employ such a technique on a tree. Before we do that, and before you give us a call, there are some questions that we should ask before deciding on a cabling and bracing strategy.
First, we need to examine the tree or group of trees that you are thinking about Cabling and Bracing. Is the tree or trees in question in good enough shape to withstand Cabling and Bracing? Is your tree healthy enough, or is the tree diseased, dead and past the point of saving? Would installing cables and braces on your tree reduce the structural liability of your tree, and as a result, either save the tree, or save it from falling on a structure? The structural stress that a tree creates throughout its life are all factors to consider before calling a certified Fort Collins Arborist to perform your selected cabling and bracing service.
Some other reasons that you would want to consider Cabling & Bracing.
- Your tree is splitting in a one or more places, and you need something to secure it and bring it back to normal. In these cases, it would be a large split in a big branch, to keep from cutting the branch completely off the tree. Trees are extremely resilient if they are treated right, so if your tree is structurally strong, cabling and bracing might be a viable option.
- Your tree is very old, or mature, and the stress that is being placed on a few branches, or on a large stump is too much for the tree to bear over time. You might have to think about Cabling and Bracing if you have a large maple, cottonwood, or any other tree that is over 30 years old in Fort Collins.
- Your tree has multiple trunks. If this is the case, there could be additional stress placed on one of the trunks because of the amount of weight those branches are holding. A great number of trees have multiple trunks, so if this is the case for one or more of the trees on your property, give our Fort Collins Arborist a call today!
- Your tree is young, but already is not growing the way it should be to provide structural integrity for the future. Cabling and Bracing trees when they are young helps immensely to create a great growth path for the life of your tree.
- The species of tree that you have! When it comes to Tree Care, the species of the tree always helps our Arborist determine what the course of action should be taken when caring for that specific tree. If you have a Cottonwood, Maple, Oak, Ash, or any other species of tree, Cabling and Bracing might be a good solution for you!
