Habitat for Humanity of Tuscaloosa is partnering with Strengthen Alabama Homes to offer residents of Tuscaloosa and Pickens Counties the opportunity to apply for a new fortified roof.
Funding for this program comes from the insurance industry.
A recent study by The University of Alabama shows that homes with these roofs sell for approximately 7% more than homes without.
If approved, the grant will cover the cost of a new roof up to $10,000.
If the grant award is not enough to cover the cost of your roof replacement, you will be responsible for the additional cost.
