Tree Cabling & Bracing

Tree Cabling & Bracing

Some trees end up in a tough situation where they cannot be trimmed to remove the danger of an unstable or cracking lead. Lots of homeowners will opt for a supplemental structural support systems in order to save a tree rather than having to just cut it down. These devices must be installed by a specialist and should be inspected every year after installed.

Tree Cabling & Bracing Service

In a forest environment it doesn’t matter if a tree loses a large limb, but in a more urban setting limb failure can cause injury or damage to property. When a tree has a branch or stem that is poorly attached and structural stability cannot be improved with pruning, sometimes installing a cable system is a good option. We offer two types of cabling systems, depending on the situation at hand:

Dynamic cabling, which is non-invasive, allows the tree to move naturally – but not to the point of branch/stem failure
Static cabling, which requires drilling and hardware installation, holds the tree part in question rigid to arrest the progress of active failure

Bracing however is the installation of a steel rod through a poor branch attachment to prevent or repair a split. When installing a brace, industry best practices require also installing a cable system. Cabling, on the other hand, does not always require bracing.

Nick delivered exactly as promised - very efficient and lots of huge equipment to get the job done. He removed 9 large Ponderosa/Douglas Fir trees near our house without harming the land around them or damaging the landscaping/driveway. As with so many things, you get what you pay for. Not cheap, but he really knows what he is doing and has a good crew to work with him. Highly recommend. Nancy Spence, Sagle

Had a ~40ft tree leaning way over my mothers house. I called him at 6:00 the night before and he responded the next morning at 7:00am when he saw the photo of its severity and had it down safely within 20-30 minutes. Very professional, very cordial, I will call him again when i need a tree removed and recommend him to anyone!

Wonderful job removing a tree that had fallen on my garage. I had them remove three more potentially hazardous trees and cut them up for firewood. Expert job, nice people, fast and efficient.

What a great hard working, thoughtful, polite and respectful and SAFE bunch of guys. These guys were very meticulous about everything. I had 4 big trees removed (some high risk)and 1/2 dozen limbed up high. Even the tuff stuff was a non event for them and clean up was excellent.

NOW IS THE TIME TO CALL BIG NICK!!! Seeing that it looks like we are going to have a rough winter we wanted to be proactive and get some big trees down BEFORE they fell on our house!! Once again we called THE PROFESSIONALS AT BIG NICK's TREE SERVICE!! Big Nick, Sam and Chet came out and took down 8 more trees for us and now we can sleep peacefully knowing that they are not going to come down on our house! We had a big tree fall on our house last winter during a wind sotrm and we NEVER want to live through that again! DON'T DELAY CALL BIG NICK TODAY!!!! UPDATE: On Friday 13 March 2020 we had a GIGANTIC PINE TREE hit our house during the big winterstorm. We were scared to death that it was going to snap in half and wreck even more of the house or seesaw and take out the kitchen or roll off the roof and hit my truck which was blocked in by it!! IT WAS SCARY! The wind was whipping the fallen tree as it leaned up against our house. We called BIG NICK and he and Sam came out and saved our house from anymore damage! It took them a little while as it was dangerous but they took this giant pine apart piece by piece and gently lowered the pieces to the ground. Thanks to these guys we did not suffer anymore damage!! I truly believe that if they did not get there as quick as they did and get this tree down we would have been looking at some major, major damage. Big Nick and Sam ought to wear CAPES!!! Thank you Big Nick and Sam for saving our house!! If I had to describe Big Nick's Tree Management in a single word it would be SUPERGLORIOUS!!!! These guys are PROFESSIONALS! We called Nick about 3 birch trees we had that were surrounded on 3 sides by our house and garage. Nick came right out and gave us an estimate and the "price was the price" even though his crew went the extra mile when it came to clean up and chipping! Sam is the tree climber/cutter and he is the MOZART OF CHAINSAWS! He stood on the ground in front of the trees for about 3 minutes and then up he went to the heavens hanging off branches as big as your wrist. He systematically took the tree down piece by piece and dropped each piece in the same spot. NOT ONE TWIG TOUCHED ANY OF OUR ROOFS!!! It was amazing to watch. A true expert!!!!! Nathan, the ground guy, was in constant motion and assisted Sam and kept the chipper shredder fed. We are more than pleased with BIG NICK TREE MANAGEMENT and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO EVERYONE!!
