Western North Carolina is home to many large, mature trees that provide beauty, shade, and character to area properties. Unfortunately, these same trees can develop structural weaknesses as they age, making proactive risk management increasingly important.

Whether you’re concerned about a mature tree near your home or simply want to preserve a valuable specimen for future generations, ArborPro Tree Service can help determine whether cabling and bracing is an appropriate solution for your situation.
Only an ISA-certified arborist can determine whether or not a tree may be a good candidate for cable or brace installation. However, there are a few general clues you can look for, which may point you in the right direction, including:
