Step 01

Submit Application Form

Fill out and submit the application form below which will be sent to our repair team. You will receive an auto response letting youn know we received your application.

We will try to contact you no more than 2 times after receiving your application. If we do not hear from you within 7 days after trying to contact you, we will delete your application and you will be disqualified from our program.

We have a heavy backlog of projects and it is imperative that you are timely in your response and getting us the required documentation we need. Failure to do so will result in immediate disqualification from our program.

Step 02

Program Qualification

Our CHR manager will contact you for an initial consultation to verify you qualify for our program.
If you qualify, our CHR manager will schedule an initial site visit to review your repair request.
We will review and collect the required documentation needed in step 3.

Step 03

Required Documentation

Ideally, we prefer you send the required documentation prior to our site visit to speed up the process. If you are unable to send us these documents, we will need to see them at our initial site visit or your application will be denied.

We will verify you own your home and your homeowner’s insurance and property taxes are current
Income verification:
- 3 months of banks statements
- Pay stubs for last 3 months if employed
- Last years tax return
- Social security or disability benefit letters

Step 04

Contract Documents & Sweat Equity

Our CHR manager will prepare all contract documents for your signature. Once we have all contract documents signed and we have confirmed your sweat equity requirements, we will schedule your repair.

Step 05

Repair

Once you have been approved for our program, our CHR manager will schedule your repair. It could take as little as a few days to a few months. It all depends on our current backlog, the urgency of your repair and other scheduling constraints. Outside repairs are also weather dependent.

Once the repair(s) is complete, our licensed general contractor will inspect the repair(s) to ensure they are completed and in conformance with our scope of work and contract documents.
