Critical Home Repairs
If you are a homeowner having trouble making necessary repairs, we may be able to help
Habitat for Humanity of East Jefferson County is a nonprofit, nongovernmental organization that continuously accepts applications for repair projects, particularly in Quilcene and Brinnon.
If you are a homeowner having trouble making necessary repairs, we may be able to help! We offer a confidential free home repair assessment, no-interest loans and loan payment deferral for as long as you own your home.
Examples of repairs we might do:
- Repairs that affect the health and safety of those living in the home
- Repairs that, with completion, could keep an occupant in their home for another 5 years
- Depending on the individual repair, we might work with heating and cooling systems, clean water systems, roofing repairs and replacements, and painting exteriors to keep homes from deteriorating
Examples of repairs we don’t do:
- Major home restoration
- Aesthetic painting
- Work beyond our financial scope
- Work where all the systems in a house have failed
- Repairs that are purely cosmetic
What it takes to repair your house with us:
- Own and occupy your home
- Have trouble making necessary repairs to your home
- Be willing to partner with Habitat
