About COVER HOME REPAIR INC

Location:

158 S MAIN ST, WHITE RIV JCT, VT 05001, US

Mission Statement

COVER’s mission is to foster hope and build community in the Upper Valley by bringing together homeowners and volunteers to complete urgently needed home repairs for low-income homeowners, many of whom are elderly and/or disabled.

Description

Our programs include: Home Repair, Weatherization, and The Cover Store.

Home Repair projects include roof repair and construction, accessibility ramps, building new stairs, installing railings and grab-bars, weatherization and energy efficiency measures, and floor repair. 85% of COVER homeowners make less than the Federal Poverty Guideline.
Qualifying home repair and weatherization projects must meet the following criteria:

• the repair must be urgently needed;
• the home must be within 45 minutes of our facility in White River Junction;
• the repair must be suitable for volunteers;
• the homeowner must be able and willing to participate in some way.

We further support the mission with the effective reuse of household goods and building materials. You can find donated building materials, household goods, major appliances and used furniture at low cost. Our Store Assistance Program makes goods available to customers at no cost if they are referred by another agency.
