Two levels are offered to fit your needs based on your home:

Help@Home

Help@Home offers minor home repairs for needs which might include fixing your toilet, grouting and weatherizing. We also offer chore services, computer troubleshooting, home organizing and home safety assessments. All of these services are accessible to those who live in their own homes.

Help@Home’s affordable fee is assessed on a sliding scale ranging from $10 to $85 per month (based on household income) and includes ALL of your labor charges – there are no hidden fees or trip charges. The monthly fee covers unlimited calls to meet your needs.

Help@Home Lite

Help@Home Lite was developed for those who live in residences that provide minor home repair support, but do not help with chores such as changing light bulbs, hanging photos and assembling furniture. We also offer computer troubleshooting, home organizing and home safety assessments.

Help@Home Lite’s affordable fee is assessed on a sliding scale ranging from $10 to $49 per month (based on household income) and includes ALL of your labor charges – there are no hidden fees or trip charges. The monthly fee covers unlimited calls to meet your needs.
