Gyeonggi Province to Support 254 Small-Scale Aging Homes... Up to 16 Million Won Provided

Gyeonggi Province will provide small-scale home repair support for a total of 254 locations this year.

The small-scale home repair support project provides up to 12 million won for detached houses with an officially announced value of less than 900 million won. For small apartment complexes with fewer than 30 households and over 15 years old, the province will provide up to 16 million won for repairs or replacements of shared facilities, such as rooftop waterproofing, painting, exterior wall and road crack repairs, and fire safety equipment. In cases where the interior condition of units in apartment complexes is poor, up to 5 million won will be provided for interior repairs.

Since last year, through ordinance revisions, Gyeonggi Province has expanded the scope of support from existing aging detached houses to include small-scale multi-family and row houses with fewer than 30 households. This expansion applies across the entire province, not just to specific areas such as those removed from New Town redevelopment zones.

Notably, starting this year, if the scope of repair work does not overlap with projects supported by other organizations, residents can receive simultaneous support, enabling more efficient home repairs. The guidelines have been revised to reflect this change.

As a result, it is expected that the time and inconvenience for residents during home repairs will be greatly reduced. For example, if a resident participates in both a solar panel installation support program and a roof repair project at the same time, they can save time and costs compared to conducting each project separately, by avoiding repeated demolitions and installations.

The recipients are selected by each city or county, and applications should be submitted to the department in charge of home repair projects within the relevant local government.

By searching for "home repair" on the Gyeonggi Province website, residents can easily find contact information for their area of interest.

Cheon Byungmun, Director of Urban Regeneration at Gyeonggi Province, stated, "The home repair project has a satisfaction rate of over 96% among residents. We expect that expanding support not only to common areas of small apartment complexes but also to the private interior spaces of households, regardless of region, will be well received by residents living in poor housing conditions."
