Have you ever wondered why trees fall apart? Open grown trees are especially prone to the development of structural weaknesses. Although not always initially obvious, weaknesses can progress as the tree grows over time. Such trees are commonly damaged during storms.

Weak crotches can break sending entire limbs to the ground. This can result in the harm of a person or pet, and can also result in expensive property damage if the limb lands on your house or car. Therefore, it is very important to have your trees inspected annually to ensure their health and structural integrity.

Finding damage does not necessarily mean that the tree or limb must be removed. Properly installed cables can stabilize tree limbs and prevent them from splitting away. This is especially important for large trees around houses, outbuildings, and other high-value "targets."
