How it works

This program was created to address deteriorating exterior conditions in the older housing stock within Augusta-Richmond County. The city provides free exterior paint to qualified applicants, but the property owner must arrange for the structure to be painted.

What the money covers

The benefit is paint at no cost. The page does not say that labor is included.

Amounts and matching

No cash amount is stated. The value described on the page is the free provision of exterior paint.

How to apply

The page does not give a separate application portal or form. It says qualified homeowners and landlords may participate through the city’s rehabilitation programs.

Timing and deadlines

Applicants are allowed 90 days to begin painting and 180 days to complete the work. An owner may reapply for the Paint Program only after seven years have passed.
