Housing Rehabilitation Program & Grants

Housing Rehabilitation Program

The Borough of Conshohocken’s Housing Rehabilitation Program has been in existence for over four decades and continues to operate for low- and moderate-income homeowners.

The Program has helped hundreds of Conshohocken homeowners bring their homes into code compliance so they can live more comfortably and safely. Eligible repairs include roof replacement, heater replacement, window and door replacement, electrical improvements and upgrades, plumbing improvements, kitchen and bathroom improvements, handrails and other accessibility improvements, concrete work, and smoke and carbon monoxide detector installation.

The Housing Rehabilitation Program is a four-year deferred loan program funded with federal funds provided through the Pennsylvania Department of Housing and Community Development (DCED).
