Would you rather we did the application for you?
The Irish home grant process is genuinely hard work. A council form that runs to many pages, an occupational therapist report, three written quotes, proof of income, proof of ownership, and one rule that voids the whole thing if you get it wrong. Plenty of families give up halfway through and pay for everything themselves.
You do not have to. Everything on GrantHub is free: the grant finder, the eligibility check, the calculator, the guides, and asking us questions by email. Most people do the application themselves with those and get on fine.
These two options are only for people who would rather hand the paperwork over.
Would you rather we did it for you?
Some people would sooner hand the paperwork over than wrestle with it. If that is you, pick an option and send us the request. Nothing is paid now.

Option 1. We fill in your form, 29.99 euro one-off
You tell us about your situation. We complete the grant application form for you, ready to sign and send. We also send you a list of survey companies to ring and a list of private occupational therapists to call, so the two slowest parts of the process start straight away.

Common questions
Is the rest of the site still free?
Yes, completely. The finder, the checker, the calculator, the guides and asking us questions all cost nothing, and that does not change. These options exist only for people who want the work taken off their hands.
Do I pay before I see anything?
No. We take your details, tell you exactly what we will do, and you pay when you are happy to go ahead.
Can you guarantee the grant is approved?
No, and nobody can. The council makes the decision. What we promise is an application done properly, completely, and on time, which is where most applications fall down.
Do you cover Northern Ireland?
No. We cover the Republic of Ireland only, all 26 counties. In Northern Ireland the equivalent is the Disabled Facilities Grant through the NI Housing Executive.
Do you sell stairlifts or bathrooms?
No. We are not an installer and we take nothing from installers. We help you get the grant, that is the whole job.
