Gyeonggi Province to Allow Single Application for Nine Small-Scale Old House Programs Starting Next Year

Starting next year, residents of Gyeonggi Province will be able to apply for nine home improvement-related programs?including old house repairs, residential solar power support, and water pipe renovation in the Seoul metropolitan area?all at once.

Previously, support for home improvement projects was often managed separately by different departments. As a result, residents had to individually seek out information about each program and apply on their own. This led to situations where some residents missed out on support because they were unaware of certain programs or missed the application period.

To address these inconveniences, Gyeonggi Province has decided to consolidate information on previously separate home improvement programs, allowing residents to check and apply for all available support at once, ensuring that no one misses out.

Applications that request program linkage will be collected and shared with the relevant departments to facilitate support. Since this year's budget has already been allocated, the integrated application system will begin next year.

The nine programs eligible for integration are: ▲Small-scale old house repair ▲Hae-sal Housing (window and boiler upgrades, etc.) ▲G-Housing (bathroom and kitchen renovations, etc.) ▲Home modification for people with disabilities (door and bathroom repairs, etc.) ▲Senior safety housing (safety facility upgrades, etc.) ▲Asbestos slate roof removal (support for dismantling slate roofs, etc.) ▲Residential solar power (3KW) support (partial funding for solar installation) ▲Rural housing improvement (loans for home renovation) ▲Support for replacing rusty water pipes (funding for water pipe replacement work), among others.

Among these, the small-scale old house repair program targets small-scale old apartment complexes with fewer than 30 households that are over 15 years old, as well as single-family homes that are over 20 years old.

The program provides up to 16 million won for repairs or replacements of deteriorated common facilities such as rooftop waterproofing, painting, exterior wall and road crack repairs, and fire safety equipment. If the interior of a household is in poor condition, up to 5 million won is provided for interior repairs.
