At Upper Canada Tree Services, we offer professional tree cabling and bolting services in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) to enhance the structural integrity and safety of your trees. Cabling and bolting techniques are utilized to support weak branch unions and reduce the potential damage caused by high winds and heavy snow.
Cabling involves the installation of either steel cables or synthetic rope systems within the crown of the tree. These cables are strategically placed between major limbs that have been identified as potentially weak or having poor branch unions. The primary goal of cabling is to provide additional support and reinforcement to these vulnerable areas, minimizing the risk of branch failure.
The installation of cables helps redistribute the weight and stress placed on weak branch unions, improving the overall stability of the tree. This technique is particularly beneficial for trees with heavy or irregular branch structures, as it helps prevent limb breakage during adverse weather conditions.
Cables can also serve as a preventive measure, even in trees without identified structural defects. By adding support through cabling, potential damage caused by high winds, storms, or heavy snow can be significantly reduced. This proactive approach to tree care enhances the resilience of your trees, protecting them from potential hazards and increasing their longevity.
Bolting is another technique used in conjunction with cabling to reinforce weak areas within the tree. This process involves drilling through the crotch of the tree that has been identified as weak and installing a metal rod with nuts and washers on each end. The bolted system provides additional stability and support, particularly in areas prone to splitting or separation.
Our skilled arborists have the expertise to assess the structural integrity of your trees and determine if cabling and bolting are necessary. We carefully evaluate the tree’s condition, branch unions, and potential risks to determine the most appropriate course of action.
