Habitat Spartanburg helps Spartanburg County homeowners maintain the health, safety, and accessibilty of their homes by offering exterior repairs at a fraction of the actual cost through the Critical Home Repair Program.
Those interested in any repair work must first apply to the Critical Home Repair Program.
We accept applications year-round for the Critical Home Repair Program, and applications are processed on a rolling basis as space becomes available. New applicants should expect a wait time of at least 3 to 6 months, but please note that the timeframe can vary widely.
Those approved for the Critical Home Repair Program receive repairs at about 10% of the actual cost. We only consider repairs which are CRITICAL to health, safety, and accessibility in the home, and we are limited to OUTDOOR repair work only. Common projects include roofing, siding, gutters, wheelchair ramps, porches, and railings.
To date, we have served more than 30 families through this program, helping them remain safely in their longtime homes!
We are NOT currently accepting new applications for the Critical Home Repair Program. We expect to start accepting them again sometime after the new year. When we start again, we will be prioritizing applications from VETERANS living anywhere in Spartanburg County and from ALL homeowners in the Highlands, Northside, Spartanburg Regional, South Converse, and Enoree areas.
