Cabling, Bracing, and Lightning Protection
Cabling and Bracing
Cabling provides trees with additional structural support. We utilize quality materials, sound engineering principles and proper installation methods. Cables are essential to prevent tree failure during severe storms.
Lightning strikes are unpredictable and hazardous. Every year numerous stately trees are lost as a result of a devastating lightning strike. A properly installed lightning protection system creates an umbrella of protection to reduce the chance of damage due to a lightning strike.
Copper conductors connected to a ground rod direct the charge harmlessly to the ground. Only top quality materials are used.
Trees known for their susceptibility to lightning strikes:
- Pin Oak
- Tulip tree
