Attention licensed building professionals in Cobb County: the Cobb County CDBG Program Office invites you to contribute to your community by participating in the Minor Home Repair Grant Program. This initiative seeks qualified residential general contractors to assist in revitalizing homes in need. Funded by federal Community Development Block Grant resources, this program offers financial support of up to $10,000 to low-income households for essential repairs, including those related to heating systems and electrical issues, as per the Cobb County official website.

The program is designed to ensure that the homes of lower-income families are safe, comfortable, and well-maintained, covering repairs such as HVAC systems, windows, exterior doors, electrical work, roofing, and plumbing. Contractors wishing to participate must meet specific requirements, including a Cobb County Vendor Application, a Georgia Secretary of State Contractor’s License, and registration in SAM.gov. Additionally, applicants must provide three professional references and proof of insurance, including General Liability, Workers' Compensation, and a Valid Certificate of Insurance.
