The city of San Antonio has chosen 14 contractors for the 2023 Home Rehab program that will assist qualified homeowners with major and minor repairs to their homes.
San Antonio officials put out a call for contractors in September 2021 that sought qualified candidates with “proven experience to perform general construction and housing rehabilitation services.”
“The goal is to create a list of qualified contractors for upcoming projects with a goal of having at least 15 qualified and capable contractors on the list,” according to a notice from the city.
Ultimately, 14 contractors were chosen by the Neighborhood and Housing Services Department for the rehabilitation and repair program.
A press release from the city released Aug. 3 stated that $45 million will be allocated to homeowner rehabilitation projects thanks to the historic $1.2 billion 2022-2027 bond that was approved by voters on May 7.
Funding can be used for foundation/structural concerns, roofing, electrical, plumbing, heating, and/or cooling repairs, water heater, and window or door improvements.
Below is the list of approved contractors, provided by the city:
