Are you eligible?

If you live in QLD, are aged 60+ (or any age if you have a disability), hold a pensioner concession card and you're unable to complete the work yourself, you may be eligible. You also need to show us that you can't have the work done by family, a friend or via the Commonwealth Home Support Program or Department of Veterans’ Affairs. 

Cost

While the Queensland Government pays for Home Assist Secure costs, you may need to contribute, too. Your out-of-pocket costs depend on the type of work being done to your home, how much work is needed and when. 

The total cost of one Home Assist Secure job can't exceed $1,500 for labour and materials. A maximum of $200 can be spent on labour for one job. The same person can receive support for a maximum of $500 in labour costs per year - so you may need to contribute if the work you need done exceeds this. An additional $80 per year can be spent on security and safety hardware.

Contact us on 1800 772 011 for more information about pricing.
