Home improvement grants and funding

Financial assistance

If you are a private homeowner struggling to afford or carry out general repairs and maintenance to your home, the council may be able to offer you financial assistance to enable the progress of your home improvements.

Financial assistance can be used for a variety of works such as:

  • Damp proof course
  • Roof repairs
  • Electrical rewiring
  • Heating system repairs and replacements
  • Insulation and energy efficiency improvements

If your property is listed or in a conservation area, we also offer the Heritage Building Improvement Grant
