If you live in Ontario and need money for home renovations, you’re in luck – because there are plenty of Ontario renovation grants in this year and Ontario energy rebates that will help you out.
In this comprehensive guide, we cover 82 Ontario home improvement grants, rebates, tax credits, and down payment assistance, including Ontario window rebates, new furnace rebates, insulation rebates, toilet rebates, and much more!
You can improve your roof, make your house easier to access for a senior or person with a disability, fix up that old granny suite using the Ontario Renovates program, and much more!
Our comprehensive list will go over all the details of the helpful home grants available to you and qualifying individuals in your family. We will talk a bit about where and how you can apply for these grants as well as how much assistant you can expect.
With many of these programs, you should know that funding is rather limited. This means that only a select number of applications will be approved for the grant. With that being said, it is imperative that you apply early on to get the highest chance of admission.
Also, a majority of these grants are on a first-come, first-serve basis so the priority of getting your application filled out correctly and submitted on time is of the utmost importance.
Below we’ve listed all of the current programs for Ontario homeowners, including current Canadian government home renovation grants.
Let’s dive in:
Federal Grants, Rebates, and Tax Credits for Ontario Homeowners
RRSP Home Buyers’ Plan
This program allows you to withdraw up to $25,000 from your RRSP to buy or build a new home.
You can also use it to buy or build a home for yourself or someone you know with a disability.
Home Buyers’ Tax Credit
The THBTC is a non-refundable tax credit that helps homeowners recover closing costs such as legal expenses and inspections.
First-time buyers can claim up to $5,000 for the purchase of a qualifying home on their personal tax return on the year of purchase. You could net up to $750! However, you cannot have lived in another home you or your partner owned in the previous 4 years. This drawback helps to weed out some applicants so that if you are a first time homebuyer, you have a really great chance of obtaining this grant.
If you have a disability (i.e., you are eligible for the disability tax credit) or if you bought the house to improve accessibility for someone who is disabled, you do not have to be a first-time home buyer.
GST/HST New Housing Rebate
The GST/HST new housing rebate gives back some of the GST or the federal part of the HST you paid – up to $1,500 – for a new or substantially renovated house that is your primary place of residence provided you meet all the eligibility requirements.
Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program for Secondary/Garden Suite On-Reserve
This program is open to First Nations and First Nation members owning residential properties that want to create affordable, self-contained rental accommodation (secondary, granny, or garden suites) within their primary residence.
Eligible households can receive fully forgivable loans that do not have to be repaid as long as you stick to the conditions of the program, such as renting the suite to low-income tenants. The most you can get is $60,000 per unit unless you live in a northern or remote community. In that case, the amount increases by 25%.
This is a great program to take advantage of if you can qualify because it is a great way to helping you set yourself up for financial security in the future.
CMHC Green Home
If you buy, build, or renovate for energy efficiency using CMHC-insured financing, you could receive a 15% rebate for building a home to ENERGY STAR® standards or up to 25% for building a home to R-2000 building standards.
Genworth Canada Energy-Efficient Housing Program
Receive a 25% rebate when you build a home through one of Genworth Canada’s qualifying energy-efficient building programs or meet the prescribed minimum Natural Resources Canada EnerGuide requirements and fund it through a Genworth Canada insured mortgage
Province of Ontario Home Improvement Grants, Rebates, and More
There are seven different types of grants and rebates available from the Ontario provincial government: renovation grants and rebates for seniors, people with disabilities, secondary suites, people with low incomes, first-time home buyers, those who live in northern locations, and those who want to improve their energy efficiency.
Seniors’ Homeowner Grants
- Provincial Land Tax Deferral Program for Low-Income Seniors and Low-Income Persons with Disabilities
You can qualify for relief if your farm/property was used as your principal residence for at least one year.
This grant gives seniors a rebate up to $500. However, if your income was more than $50,000, you are not eligible for this grant.
Disabled Homeowner Grants
If you are making modifications to your home or vehicle to accommodate a disability and make less than $30,000 in a year, you could receive up to $15,000. However, this program is supposed to be a last resort.
Be aware that as of July 4, 2017, application forms with the number 08/16 on the bottom left corner will be accepted for processing; all other applications will not be accepted.
This program offers forgivable loans up to $20,000 to households occupied by people with disabilities who require special modifications to improve accessibility to their residence. The maximum forgivable loan amount varies by municipality.
Easter Seals will provide up to $3,000 to help with home renovations or equipment not covered by the Ministry of Health’s Assistive Devices Program for children up to the age of 19 with mobility disabilities, though clients are required to pay $50 or more per each request, based on their financial resources.
Low-Income Homeowner Grants
This program offers forgivable loans of up to $20,000 to low-income homeowners who own and occupy substandard housing, so they can repair their dwellings to a minimum level of health and safety. The maximum amount varies by municipality.
Non-seniors can receive up to $1,043 while seniors can receive up to $1,187. Even students can receive a credit of $25 if any of their costs were related to energy costs, and if you live on a reserve or in a public long-term care home, you can receive up to $232.
This program is an application program for a reduction in energy bills.
The rebate pays 10% of your electricity bill towards your utility bill and is based upon household income. For example, a family of four making less than $39,000 could receive a $51 in credit on their monthly energy bills.
This is a program that you will find within all Ontario utility companies and helps on a few different levels. Here’s how you can use it:
- Receive emergency financial assistance (up to $500 for electricity or gas bills and up to $600 if your home is heated electrically)
- Have security deposit waved
- Ask for any security deposit you paid back
- Ask for a disconnection grace period of up to 21 days
- Be allowed more time to pay outstanding balances
- Ask for equalized billing without paying by automatic withdrawal
First Time Home Buyer Ontario Grants
Under this program, if you’re a first time home buyer, you could qualify to receive a refund of the land transfer tax for the first $368,000 of the value of the home. The maximum amount of the refund is $4,000.
The biggest hurdle in qualifying for the maximum amount of this program is that all purchasers of the home must be first-time homebuyers. If one or more purchasers has owned a home anywhere in the world previously, the amount will be reduced.
Ontario Energy Efficiency Rebates & Programs
Northern Locations Energy Credit
Those living in a qualifying location can take advantage of the Northern Ontario Energy Credit.
This tax credit allows single people to receive a credit on their taxes of up to $151 and allows families (including single parents) to receive up to $232.
The purpose of this program is to help Northern Ontario residents with the higher energy costs they face living in the north.
Green Ontario Fund
This not-for-profit agency uses its funds to help residents reduce their carbon footprint and save money.
Get rebates of up to $20,000 depending on the systems you replace or add, which could include ground- or air-source heat pumps, insulation, or windows.
Don’t forget to take advantage of the free smart thermostat installation and home energy review also included in the program!
Ontario Municipal Government Grants & Rebates
Now, as you’ll notice, there are many grants that come from different municipal governments.
If you live in some of the bigger cities in Ontario, there are plenty of grants and tax rebates that you could be eligible for!

This fund allows low-income Toronto residents, not receiving Ontario Works or ODSP—regardless of immigration status— who are in arrears or have received a disconnection notice, receive help from the City of Toronto with energy-related emergencies to reconnect, prevent disconnection, or assist in paying energy arrears for hydro, gas, or oil services.

This also applies to any purchased building permits in these situations. You can also apply for property tax relief due to extreme poverty or sickness.
Because lead can have serious effects on health, the City of Toronto continually works to replace substandard service pipes.

I have been inquiring for 2 yrs about grants for replacing our roof, upgrading our fuse panel, repairing our garage, and more but to no avail. Apparently our district has not had renovation grants for 3 yrs. We are seniors living in our own home but finding it more and more difficult to afford the upkeep. It appears that the larger cities are getting the help. We are receiving a reduced rate for our hydro and do qualify for the $500 Property Tax Rebate.
I am a home owner who has been applying for assistance to help repair my house for quite some time..I was recently notified that I could get assistance to repair my roof that is very poor shape along with a new window,2 doors insulation and siding.They then inform me that what they can do to assist us a New roof and siding but no insulation behind the siding..The old siding if 25 yes plus is to remain.I am also unable to have 2 doors or a window..I’m told I need a secondary for that is accessible to get out of in case of fire but taken away from me.Ive been told that anything else needed through this assistance of funding would have to be out of pocket..Meaning my pocket..The total for a new window,2 doors and insulation behind the new siding is roughly $5000.00..
I live up north in a small community of 250 people just south of Sudbury Ontario..I am asking to see if there is funding/a grant there to offset the remaining 5000.00 do that I may have an accessible door,a window that isnt taped to keep out drafts and insulation for the new siding.
I await to hear from you
Kind regards
We desperately need to redo our original bathroom due to black mould. It is all in behind the tiles and under the tub as well as in the over drain. We are seniors one of us with disabilities. We are concerned about health issues from the mould. Our water is also very hard and we have been told that we need to get a special water softener to be able to handle it. Everything turns white, even the shampoo bottles. Is there any type of grant that can help us with theses problems??
