Supplemental Support Systems
Structurally compromised trees don't always need to be removed. In many cases, a well-designed supplemental support system can extend the life of a mature tree significantly — preserving an asset that took decades to grow. Gomez Landscape & Tree Care installs cabling, bracing, and propping systems engineered to reduce the risk of limb or trunk failure. We use extra-high-strength steel cable to limit movement of large limbs during adverse weather conditions, with hardware and placement designed to distribute weight effectively and relieve stress on compromised unions.
All systems are planned and installed in strict compliance with American National Standards Institute guidelines (ANSI A-300) by qualified arborists trained in structural tree assessment. Supplemental support is not a universal solution — it requires a thorough evaluation of the tree's species, structure, age, and risk profile before any hardware is specified. Our certified arborists assess each situation individually and recommend only what the tree genuinely needs.
