Building and Grounds Volunteers

Buildings Maintenance - Brad Jilek
Grounds Maintenance  - Pete and Kathy Daley

Here’s a brief overview of the responsibilities for church building maintenance and grounds maintenance:

  1. Church Building Maintenance: Church building maintenance volunteers are responsible for ensuring the proper functioning, safety, and upkeep of the church facility. Their duties include:

    • Inspecting and Repairing: Regularly inspecting the building’s systems (such as lighting, plumbing, and heating) to identify any issues and promptly repairing them.
    • Structural Maintenance: Addressing minor structural defects within the church building, such as fixing doors, windows, and other components.
    • Cleanliness: Keeping the premises clean and orderly, including bathrooms, kitchen areas, and common spaces.
    • Collaboration: Coordinating with other volunteers for special maintenance projects.
    • Safety: Ensuring that emergency exits, lighting, and other safety features are functional.
    • Communication: Reporting any significant issues to the church’s Board of Trustees or senior pastor.

  2. Grounds Maintenance: Grounds maintenance workers focus on the outdoor areas surrounding the church. Their tasks include:

    • Landscaping: Mowing lawns, trimming hedges, and planting flowers to maintain an attractive and orderly landscape.
    • Tree Care: Pruning trees and shrubs, removing dead or unwanted branches, and ensuring the safety of the church grounds.
    • Seasonal Tasks: Handling seasonal tasks like snow or ice removal (if applicable).
    • Pesticides and Fertilizers: Applying treatments to plants or soil as needed.
    • General Clean-Up: Removing litter, debris, and maintaining pathways and sidewalks.
    • Collaboration: Coordinating with other maintenance workers and contractors.

In summary, both church building maintenance and grounds maintenance contribute to creating a welcoming and functional environment for the church community.
