Home Repair

Habitat for Humanity of Henderson County’s Home Repair Program serves low-income homeowners who struggle to maintain the interior and exterior of their homes. The program is designed to help preserve affordable homeownership and assist homeowners to live in healthy, safe and accessible homes.

Our goal is to use volunteers, alongside Habitat staff, to help make repairs affordable, assisting low-income homeowners to continue to live independently and securely in their homes.
