A project created by the Quebec community, for the Quebec community.

Là pour toit is a roofing renovation project for low-income homeowner families in Quebec. Born from an alliance between local roofing contractors (Toitures et Isolation Alex Côté and LVL Construction), material supplier GAF, and Habitat for Humanity Quebec, this project helps families regain safe and healthy homes each year.

How it works

Volunteer roofers from your area renovate the roofs of selected families free of charge, thanks to materials donated by GAF through their "Community Matters" program and the support of local partners. Habitat for Humanity Quebec coordinates the project and selects families based on established criteria.

Since 2023, five roofs have been renovated in Quebec.

Our partners

This project is made possible by the commitment of local partners:

To qualify, your family must meet the following criteria:

Have a modest gross family income;
Be prepared to provide the following documents:
1. Photos of your roof;
2. Proof of ownership (property tax bill, deed);

Applications that do not contain all the required information will not be processed.
