Home Exterior Grant (Temporary during COVID-19 restrictions)
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the City’s Home Improvement Program has been amended to continue operations. Restrictions on interior home inspections have not allowed for applicants, staff, and contractors to interact and conduct business in the manner required to complete projects. Because of this, interior home repairs are on hold until further notice. In an effort to continue to provide much needed services to low-income households and remain in compliance with governmental restrictions, the Home Exterior Grant was created. The Home Exterior Grant provides up to $10,000 to cover exterior repairs such as termite repair, termite treatment, and exterior paint. This grant is available one time only per household per address to single-family home and mobile home owners. Approval to this program will not affect future Home Improvement Program applications.
To be eligible for the City’s Home Improvement Program, a household must be at or below the low-income limit for Orange County, adjusted for household size. If you are a homeowner residing in the City of Fountain Valley and your total household income is less than the income limits below, you may be eligible to receive assistance from the City of Fountain Valley Home Improvement Program.
