Property Repairs and Maintenance
Please contact the property team during normal working hours on 01332 388650 or email propertyteam@derby.anglican.org
Any out of hours emergency please refer to the Emergency Contractors list from the links below.
Clergy Housing Emergency Repairs out of hours (including public holidays).
If an emergency occurs out of hours inlcuding public and seasonal holidays (Easter, Christmas etc), do not delay, instruct a Diocesan approved contractor immediately and inform the Property team of the problems when the office is open. An approved contractors list has been issued to all parishes and can also be found below.
Please be aware that not all contractors will cover Christmas day, Boxing day or New Year day so in the event of emergency please use a reliable local contractor.
Emergency work should be done immediately and the bill sent to the Property team for payment or reimbursement.
In case of a plumbing leak, please ensure you know the location of the stopcock for the water main.
Resources
To ensure the best use of our resources, we have compiled a list of suitably approved contractors for your reference.
Whenever possible, please try to ensure that only emergencies are dealt with out of hours.
As you will appreciate an emergency out of hours repair costs the Diocese substantially more than a repair carried out during normal office hours.
Please ensure all emergency repairs are to be reported to the Church House Property Team as soon as possible.
- You should contact us on 01332 388650 Monday to Friday between the hours of 9am and 5pm.
- You will need to provide a brief description of the repair, the contractor who attended, and most importantly your contact details. This way the repair can be monitored, audited and managed.

What is an emergency?
An emergency repair is any fault which threatens harm to persons or property. Examples include;
1 Heating and hot water
Where you or your home is at risk due to a major water leak from any part of the heating system, and where the heating system fails.
Please note: Not having hot water is not considered an emergency if you have an electric immersion heater and/or an electric shower.
An exception to this would be for household members who are frail, elderly or registered disabled.
2 Gas leaks
If you smell gas, please telephone (British Gas) on 0800 111 999 who will attend to isolate the meter and make safe where necessary.
3 Total lack of water supply
Before contacting a plumber, please check with the water utility company to ensure that works are not being carried out in the area.
4 Total lack of electricity supply
Before contacting an electrician, please check with the electricity utility company to ensure that works are not being carried out in the area.
Please check the electrical distribution box – has one or more fuses tripped?
5 Plumbing leaks
If the leak is causing damage, then it will be considered an emergency - especially if penetrating into an electrical fitting. In the interim you should turn off your water supply at your stopcock or gate valve, and your electricity supply.
6 Blockages
If you have access to more than one WC, and only one is blocked, then please arrange for a plumber to attend during normal working hours.
7 Roof leaks or other damage
Where the damage to the roof is likely to worsen or when it is hazardous (eg roof tiles may fall onto a path, drive or highway), ring a roofing or general building contractor identified within the guides above.
Please be aware that in the event of adverse weather conditions, the contractor will only make the roof safe. The Church House Property Team, will then liaise with the contractor to arrange a permanent repair for a later date when good weather permits.
8 Downpipes and gutters
Please only contact an emergency building contractor if water is entering the building causing major damage or the loose part is dangerous.
9 Broken windows & Doors
Where the damage is caused as a result of a crime. In this case, please notify the local police force who will supply you with a crime reference number, which we will need for our records and report the matter to the Church House Property Team.
For other breakages, if they pose a security risk or are letting rainwater in, then please arrange for a contractor to attend.
10 Door locks
Please arrange to contact the locksmith:
1. If you cannot open or secure a door.
2. In the unfortunate event that you have been the target of criminals who may have stolen your keys, then please report this matter to the police and obtain a crime reference number, and report the matter to the Church House Property Team.
11 Dangerous trees
Trees are particularly vulnerable to the effects of high winds during a storm and sustain various types of damage as a result. If a tree is unsafe and unstable and there is imminent danger to persons and property, where possible please take supportive photographic evidence and contact the emergency tree work specialist outlined within this booklet.
We are committed to offering a first class repair service. If you have to arrange for a contractor to attend to an emergency, then please ensure the Church House Property Team are informed as soon as possible.

Derby City Deanery Synod
2024 Deanery Synod Dates:
8 February 2024 – Alvaston Parish Church
22 May 2024 – St Alkmunds, Kedleston Road
1 October 2024 – Venue TBC
The Deanery Synod is a gathering place for clergy and lay representatives in the deanery, where we can pray and take counsel together, supporting one another in mission, and co-ordinating our service and sharing of the Gospel.
Derby City Deanery Synod comprises approximately 50 deanery clergy and 125 lay representatives from all parishes (allocated according to the number of people on each parish church’s electoral roll). Most business is conducted in a combined meeting, but occasionally there are separate meetings for the House of Clergy and the House of Laity. Lay Representatives are elected within their parish to serve for three years.
The Deanery Synod provides a vital structural bridge between parochial church councils (PCCs) and Diocesan Synods, bringing together clergy and lay people from neighbouring parishes to discuss issues relating to mission and ministry in the local area. Sometimes it will make a formal decision, sometimes by means of a vote and a local concern raised in your Deanery Synod could find its way onto an agenda for debate by your Diocesan Synod and even by the General Synod.
The Deanery Synod is an important part of the CofE structure and culture. Members are elected by parishes, and the Deanery Synod in turn elects representatives to the Diocesan Synod. Deanery synod meetings are concerned with seeking God’s will for the mission of the church locally, so it needs to be Christ-centred, prayerful and open to the spirit speaking through all.
It can take strategic decisions to advance local mission and ministry, but it also serves the witness and mission of the wider church.
Potentially the work that deanery synods do at local level can help shape the church at national level for years to come.
Derby City Deanery Leadership Team
This team consists of the:
Area Dean and Assistant Area Dean(s)
Lay Chair, Secretary and Treasurer of Synod
Elected Lay and Clergy Representatives of Synod
Deanery Administrator and co-opted members.
The Deanery Synod is required to have a standing committee. The first Derby City Deanery Synod (held in September 2016) approved the proposal that our Deanery Leadership Team be the standing committee.
One of its functions is to prepare the agenda for Deanery Synod and conduct any business between meetings that is required.
It also has two other functions. First, as the Mission and Pastoral Committee of the Deanery, supporting parishes in vacancy and taking an overview of the needs for mission and ministry in the Deanery. It is also in a good position to deal with the legal issues as the new Deanery comes into being.
Second, it has the role of co-ordinating the mission of the church in the Deanery, supporting and developing the missional role of the Deanery. In this capacity, the Deanery Leadership Team will take a leading role in writing any Deanery Mission Action Plan.
