The Homework Houston team is at it again! We partnered with Rebuilding Together in Houston to update Elma’s house in northeast Houston. Elma is a veteran who purchased her grandmother’s house to keep it in the family. The home needed new siding, sealing, handrails, plumbing work and a fresh coat of paint. Take a look at Elma’s house today!

Elma’s house is now safe, warm and dry, thanks to the following companies:
Many thanks to Deb Tejada for introducing us to Rebuilding Together and providing their incredible remodeling crew to our projects.
Dennis McGee cleared up the wiring coming into the front of the house and removed electrical boxes that were no longer used. Dennis even installed a new light fixture and mailbox.
Doug Webb removed a hazardous dead tree that was too close to the house. And, Doug and his crew cleared limbs from powerlines. The trees are healthier and happier.

Clayton Dollens prepared the house for sealing and painting by cleaning the walls and removing old paint. He made the front porch look brand new! 832-606-6815
Walter Pickett connected pipes under the house that had come loose after leveling it. Gary and the crew cleared out a sewer backup.
Terry Duffy’s landscaping crew mowed, trimmed and revitalized the front of the house.
Juan Villalobos applied the paint on both the exterior walls and the trim. Primer was applied to the new siding and the whole house got a fresh coat of paint.
Rebuilding Together Houston provides necessary home repairs and modifications to low-income seniors, disaster victims and disabled persons. These repairs allow seniors and the disabled to stay in the homes they worked so hard to acquire. Our goal: Make these homes safe, warm and dry.
