Home Maintenance and Minor Repair Services

Provides eligible homeowners with assistance with minor repairs to improve safe housing.

Owning a home can bring safety, stability, and comfort, but repairs can be costly.
We understand that pulling together the cash for a major repair may not be possible for all homeowners. Our Home Preservation Program makes repairs affordable for low-income homeowners, allowing them to get work done now and pay for it later - sometimes years down the line.

Homeowners are invited to apply for the program and are accepted based on their household income and assessed home value.

Repair services fall under four distinct categories:
- Exterior Repairs (such as roofs and siding)
- Critical Home Repair (such as furnaces and water heaters)
- Weatherization (such as windows and insulation)
- Accessibility (such as ramps, grab bars, and bath modifications)

Furnace repair for homeowners only.
