  Home Repair

Habitat for Humanity of the River Valley helps current homeowners who are struggling to maintain the integrity of their home, due to age, disability, or family circumstances. We offer affordable home repairs and energy efficient upgrades to homeowners in Madison, Limestone, and Jackson Counties. This program aims to bring community together as we restore owner-occupied homes to a state of safety and accessibility.

Home Repair Program Criteria

  1. Need: The home is in need of a minor to moderate repair that is within HFHRV’s scope of work and the homeowner is unable to physically and/or financially complete the repair themselves.
  2. Ability to Pay: The homeowner is required to pay a portion of the repair cost based on a sliding scale that considers the homeowner’s income.
  3. Residency: The home in need of repair must be the homeowner’s primary residence and located within HFHRV’s service area, which includes Madison, Limestone, or Jackson County. Additionally, the homeowner must be up to date on property taxes, mortgage payments (if applicable), and homeowner’s insurance premiums.
  4. Willingness to Partner: The homeowner must be present during the duration of the repair work.
