✨Clean and polish hallways, stairwells, foyers, and gym floors.
🔧 Repair everything from light fixtures to faucets to furniture.
📦 Assemble new equipment.

A HUGE THANK YOU to the cleaning and maintenance staff!! Their dedication and hard work make it possible for us to start the year strong in a clean, safe, and welcoming environment!!!
