Trustworthy Roofing

Free Roof Assistance Program

Helping homeowners who truly need a roof but cannot reasonably afford one. This application is for homeowners seeking a completely free roof. Because funding and available roofs are limited, applications are reviewed based on demonstrated financial hardship, urgency of the roofing need, homeownership, and availability of other resources. Submitting an application does not guarantee approval.

How applications are reviewed

Demonstrated financial hardship
The income, expenses and recent hardship you describe in the application.
Urgency of the roofing need
The condition of your roof and the problems it is causing at home.
Homeownership
Whether you own the home and live in it as your primary residence.
Availability of other resources
Insurance, financing, savings and other assistance you may be able to use.

If your application moves forward, Trustworthy Roofing may request reasonable documentation and inspect your roof and property before any decision is made. Questions? Call us at (253) 455-4347.
