If you have trees on your commercial development, you may be considering if you should have them removed or not. If you are unsure which trees you should have removed, now is the time to learn a little about the benefits of tree removal. Below is a guide to 4 benefits of having trees removed from your commercial development.

Reduced Maintenance Cost

In order to keep your commercial development looking tidy, it is vital that any trees are properly maintained. Tree maintenance will require a regular visit from a tree service who will cut any stray branches and assess the overall health of the tree. You will also have the added cost of collecting and disposing of leaves during the autumn and winter months. By reducing the number of trees on your commercial development, you could reduce the amount you have to spend on maintenance cost. 

Improved Views

If you are going to invite customers and clients into your commercial building, you will want to ensure that they have the best possible views. If the area surrounding your commercial property features lots of trees, the leaves and branches can obscure the view from the windows of your building. A large number of trees could also hide your building, making it difficult for customers to identify and locate easily.

Improved Health and Safety

During stormy weather, branches and other debris can fall from trees. This falling debris could cause injury to customers or staff who happen to be walking beneath the tree. This debris can also blow onto vehicles and against the roof of your building, causing severe damage. Any injuries or damage caused by falling branches could mean you have to pay compensation to those affected. Removing trees from your commercial development can drastically reduce this risk. 

Protected Power Supply

If a tree branch comes into contact with an overhead power line, it could cause the wire to fall to the ground, creating a risk of electrocution or it may short circuit the power supply to your entire building. Loss of power will result in downtime meaning you are unable to conduct business. Having any trees located near power lines removed can help to protect the power supply to your commercial premises.
