Critical Home Repairs
Improving the life of current homeowners
About Our Program
Using a person-centered, trauma-informed approach, Colorado County Habitat works with homeowners in need of critical home repairs to provide affordable solutions to those in need of assistance. We serve homes owned and occupied by residents of Colorado County.
Examples of critical home repairs include:
- home accessibility modifications
- plumbing
- electric
- roofing
- HVAC
- foundation
- weatherization
and any other general repairs that impact the livable conditions of the home.
Special Note:
This is not an emergency repair program, the process usually takes several months to complete.
Once a completed questionnaire has been returned to our office, a member of our team will review the packet for eligibility and contact the homeowner with the next steps in our qualification process.
Eligible homeowners will agree to a scope of work prepared by our repair coordinator after assessing the home for what is critically needed.
