Strengthen Your Trees and Enhance Safety With Professional Tree Bolting, Bracing, and Cabling

Worried about your trees in high winds or inclement weather conditions? Are insufficiently supported and poorly attached limbs threatening to damage your home? Leaning trunks, weak branches, splits, or heavy limbs benefit from cabling, bracing, and bolting services. Meyer Tree Service’s team of certified arborists use almost 30 years of experience and knowledge of the St. Louis area to create a tree support system that reduces the risk of collapse, stabilizes your trees, enhances safety, and maintains your property’s beauty.

MTS installs flexible steel cables to support weak or overextended branches and those with poor attachment angles. This method helps prevent breakage during high winds or heavy snow. Cabling is essential if your tree has heavy limbs or appears unbalanced, providing much-needed stability and safety.

Using rigid rods, MTS braces weak branch unions or cracks in trees. Tree bracing prevents splits and maintains structural integrity. Visible cracks or multiple stems that threaten to separate under stress indicate that your tree may need bracing.

MTS uses steel bolts to stabilize trees with significant splits or cracks. Bolting secures large, weakened areas to prevent further damage. Significant splits or deep cracks in your tree are clear signs that bolting is necessary to maintain its health and safety.

Signs You Need Tree Cabling and Bracing Services

Not sure if your trees need extra support? Look for these common signs that indicate it’s time to reach out to MTS for a tree support system:

  • Visible Cracks or Splits: If you notice significant cracks or splits in the trunk or branches, it’s a sign that the tree is under stress and may need cabling or bracing from MTS to prevent further damage.
  • Heavy or Overextended Branches: Branches that extend far from the trunk or appear too heavy for the tree to support on its own are at risk of breaking and benefit from additional tree bolting, cabling, or bracing support provided by MTS.
  • Multiple Stems: Trees with multiple trunks or stems (codominant stems) can split apart, requiring tree cabling and bracing from MTS to keep them stable.
  • Leaning Trees: A tree leaning significantly typically needs bracing from a professional tree service company to correct its posture and prevent it from falling.
  • Previous Storm Damage: Trees damaged by storms and with weakened branches or limbs can be stabilized with MTS’s bolting, cabling, or bracing solutions.
  • Weak Branch Unions: If branches are joined at narrow angles, they are more likely to split and may need support from MTS to stay intact.
  • Tree Species Prone to Limb Failure: Some tree species common in the St. Louis area, such as Silver Maple, Bradford Pear, and Hackberry, are more prone to limb failure and benefit from preventive tree cabling and bracing services from MTS.

Frequently Asked Tree Cabling and Bracing Questions

While tree cabling and bracing provide long-term support, MTS recommends regular inspections and adjustments to ensure continued effectiveness and tree health.

Most tree species benefit from cabling and bracing, but the suitability depends on the specific tree’s condition and needs. Our experts at MTS assess your tree and determine the best solution.

If removal becomes necessary, the MTS team can safely dismantle the cabling or bracing system before proceeding with the tree removal, ensuring a smooth and safe process.
