Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs
Up to $22,500

Waiver of Certain Penalties
Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
Penalty waiver for certain late or missed tax filings; no dollar amount stated
Texas allows certain property-tax filing penalties to be waived when disaster or other events destroy the taxpayer’s property or records. It is a penalty waiver, not a repair grant.

Residence Homestead Cap
Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
Appraised-value cap of 10% annual growth, with disaster-related replacement structure exceptions
Texas caps annual appraised-value growth on residence homesteads and treats certain disaster replacement structures as not-new improvements. This is tax valuation relief, not a repair grant.

Continuation of Residence Homestead Exemption
Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts

Texas lets some homeowners keep the homestead exemption on a replacement structure while they rebuild after casualty, wind, or water damage. It is a tax continuation rule rather than a new grant or rebate.

Galveston County Weatherization Assistance Program
Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs
Texas runs a Weatherization Assistance Program that can serve Galveston County households through local subrecipients. It is aimed at low-income homes and pays for energy-efficiency weatherization work rather than disaster-specific hardening, so it is only a partial fit for natural-disaster resilience.

Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA) windstorm insurance credits for new construction and retrofit opening protection
Texas Windstorm Insurance Association / Texas Department of Insurance
Insurance discount; no dollar amount stated on the official page
TWIA offers wind and hail insurance discounts for some homes that are built to windstorm standards, and it also offers a retrofit credit when existing homes add approved windborne-debris-resistant protection to exterior openings. Texas does not mandate a statewide homeowner hardening grant for wildfire; this is the main statewide insurer-backed incentive I found that pays homeowners through lower insurance costs.

Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA) windstorm certification / inspection pathway
Texas Department of Insurance / Texas Windstorm Insurance Association
Free inspection/certification service; no cash amount stated
Texas provides a statewide windstorm inspection and certification process that homeowners use to qualify for TWIA coverage and related discounts. This is a free regulatory service, not a grant, but it can reduce homeowner costs by enabling insurance access and credits.
