General Background

The Wind Damage Repair and Efficiency Upgrade Grant Program gives manufactured homeowners the opportunity to work with pre-approved contractors to complete repairs to their homes. Approved repairs will be fully paid by the City of Boulder.

To participate in this program, contractors must meet a set of requirements outlined in the grant’s qualification process. The City of Boulder solicited and accepted qualified vendors through a Request for Qualifications, issued on Dec. 28, 2022. The Request for Qualifications and the Qualified Contractor List will be updated and reposted yearly.

Contractors whose proposals were accepted have been added to the Qualified Contractor List.

Here are the contractors currently approved by the city:

Role of Contractors in the Grant Process

Meet with the homeowner to make a repair estimate.

Homeowners will contact contractors to schedule a meeting at their home to review repairs approved by the grant program and to request an estimate.

Note: when you are contacted by a homeowner to schedule a repair estimate, you must contact the grant administrator to receive a list of pre-approved repairs and/or a Damage Assessment document specific to that home. Please use information provided by grant staff to limit the scope of your repair estimate.

Send the repair estimate to grant program staff.

Review and sign a construction contract with the homeowner.

Once grant staff receives the estimate, they will finalize the grant amount and send a pre-approved Construction Contract.

You may either mail a signed copy to the city or take a picture and email it to mattreyl@bouldercolorado.gov.

From there, the homeowner and contractor must sign and send the contract to grant staff.

Schedule repairs.

City staff will send a Notice to Proceed after receiving the signed contract. Contractors are responsible for scheduling repairs with the homeowner.

At this time, the city will pay the contactor half of the approved grant amount. Contractors will have 60 days to complete repairs.

Send a final invoice to a city grant advisor.

When repairs are complete, homeowners will schedule a final walkthrough with a city grant advisor. If repairs are satisfactory, the advisor will request a final invoice from the contractor.

Receive final payment.

The remaining repair cost will be paid directly to the contractor via a check from the City of Boulder.
