Tree Cabling & Bracing Services in Dallas, TX
When a tree’s structure becomes compromised, it can pose serious risks to your property and safety. At Personal Touch Tree Service, our ISA Certified Arborists® specialize in professional tree cabling and bracing services designed to strengthen weak limbs, prevent splitting, and preserve valuable trees across Dallas, Lakewood, Lake Highlands, Highland Park, Richardson, Rockwall, Rowlett, TX, Forest Hills, Casa Linda, Casa View, and surrounding Texas communities.
Large, mature trees — especially Live Oaks, Red Oaks, Elms, and Bradford Pears — often develop heavy, spreading canopies or multiple trunks that struggle to support their own weight. Through strategic cabling and bracing, we provide structural reinforcement that allows your trees to remain both beautiful and safe for years to come.

Had a leaning 50'-60' Elm removed that was hanging over several other trees, the crew brought it down with no issues. They were safe and technical in their approach. Very satisfied.

Protecting the Structure of Mature Trees
Strengthening Trees, Preventing Damage
As trees grow, natural factors such as weight distribution, wind stress, and decay can lead to structural weakness. Multi-trunked trees and wide-spreading canopies are especially vulnerable to splitting and breakage during storms. Our arborists evaluate each tree’s structure and identify limbs or trunks at risk of failure.
Tree cabling uses high-strength steel cables installed in the upper canopy to redistribute stress and stabilize branches during wind or storm events. Bracing, often used with cabling, involves installing threaded steel rods through weak unions or splits to prevent further separation. Together, these methods protect both your trees and your property from costly damage.
Our arborists take a preservation-first approach — strengthening your trees so they continue to thrive naturally, without unnecessary removal.
Safe, Lasting Structural Support for Your Trees
Precision Installation by Certified Arborists
Cabling and bracing require expertise and careful planning to ensure both safety and longevity. At Personal Touch Tree Service, we follow ISA best practices for every installation. Our team assesses the tree’s health, placement, and growth patterns before determining the proper combination of cables, braces, and pruning.
We also provide end-weight reduction pruning to remove excess limb stress and encourage balanced canopy growth. Each system is customized for your tree’s specific needs — ensuring optimal performance and minimal visual impact.
Our goal is to help your trees withstand Texas storms, remain structurally sound, and continue providing shade and beauty for decades to come.
FAQs About Tree Cabling & Bracing
When should I consider cabling or bracing a tree?
If your tree has multiple trunks, visible cracks, a heavy lean, or limbs extending too far from the center, it may benefit from added support.
Can cabling and bracing save a damaged tree?
Yes. When installed properly, these systems can extend a tree’s life by preventing further splitting or limb failure while maintaining its natural form.
Are cabling and bracing permanent solutions?
Not always. Regular inspections are recommended every few years to adjust or replace hardware as the tree grows and conditions change.
Will cabling or bracing harm my tree?
When performed by a Certified Arborist, these systems do not harm the tree. We use non-invasive techniques that support natural growth.
Do all weak trees need bracing?
Not necessarily. Our arborists evaluate each case individually and may recommend selective pruning or other alternatives instead of structural reinforcement.
Is tree cabling safe during storms?
Yes. Properly installed systems are designed to withstand heavy winds, reducing the risk of limb failure and property damage during severe weather.
