Tree Cabling
Tree Cabling Facts
Tree cabling requires climbing or using a bucket truck approximately three quarters the height of the tree and can therefore be very dangerous.
Only a trained professional should undertake this task.
- Holes are drilled into the tree to be cabled and eyebolts are then used to secure the cable.
- Cabling should never be wrapped around the branches. This would slowly kill the tree as it grows.
We're always happy to answer your questions about this procedure. Give us a call at 908-755-6008.
Most people have never heard of tree cabling. In short, it's the process of using steel cable to strengthen a tree to help prevent a large branch or a split trunk from breaking and causing property damage or personal injury.
Among the reasons to cable a tree instead of removing it:
- Cost: The cost to cable a tree is far less than to remove it.
- Aesthetics: Trees add beauty and value to any property. We always strive to save a tree instead of cutting it down. The older and larger a tree, the more desirable it is to save it.
The professionals at Rich Tree Service are experienced in the process of tree cabling. When we're done, it will be nearly impossible for a casual observer to see the work that was done.
Your tree will be saved and you can rest easy knowing that your property and family are safer.
If you have a tree that you think might be a candidate for cabling give us a call at 908-755-6008 for a free tree inspection.
