Senior Center Grounds Maintenance

What This Service Involves

Senior centers serve a population for whom a wet leaf or uneven path is not a nuisance but a fall risk. We maintain walkways, entrances, and gathering areas with a heightened focus on slip, trip, and mobility hazards. Crews keep paths clear of debris, moss, and standing water, and coordinate closely around activity schedules and transport pickups. Comfortable, accessible outdoor spaces let members enjoy the grounds as safely as the building.
