Tree CABLING
At Russell Tree Experts, our cabling services are designed to strengthen trees with structural weaknesses and reduce the risk of failure during severe weather. Our Certified Arborists assess issues such as codominant stems and tight “V” attachments, then install either static steel cabling for severely compromised unions or dynamic cabling that allows for natural movement while providing support. When needed, multiple cables are strategically placed to ensure proper stability, and our team works closely with you to determine the safest and most effective solution for your tree.
Cabling options
-
Static Cabling
Static cabling systems are mainly used to help provide supplemental support to tree parts in times of high load, such as storms. Some tree structures are more prone to failure than others. A tight “V” at the base of two stems is one such structure type. More than one cable is often needed to properly support the weight of the limbs.
-
Dynamic Cabling
Dynamic cable systems allow trees to continue natural stretch and movement in the weather. Once the limbs that have been cabled for attempted support move more than about 1-2 feet apart, the Dynamic Cable provides a link between the 2 stems so that they begin to balance their weight against each other.
