City of Madison / Project Home
The City of Madison Minor Home Repair Program offers low-cost repairs and accessibility modifications for qualified homeowners. Homeowners pay only the cost of materials plus $15 per hour per volunteer for labor — dramatically below market rates. Examples include installing ramps, repairing decks, fixing faucets and toilets, replacing windows or doors, and adding grab bars and railings.
Homeowner pays materials + $15/hr labor. Typical projects cost $200–$2,000 out of pocket versus $2,000–$8,000 at market rates.
