Overview

Allows flood-affected homeowners access to grants to help rebuild their homes for long-term flood resilience.

Eligible homeowners can access grants of up to $10,000 for works such as raising essential services like electrical switchboards, hot water systems and air-conditioning, data and electrical points, and help protect parts of their homes from flood damage.

The Stronger Homes Grant will help make your home more resilient, reducing the effort, cost, time and trauma of clean-up and recovery following a flood.

With this grant, you can do things like raise electrical switchboards, air conditioning units and hot water systems, or install flood-resilient floors and wall linings.

This means if your home is flooded again, you’ll be able to recover quicker.

If your home was inundated during one of the following events and you are in one of the eligible local government areas, you may be eligible for funding to help improve your home’s resilience against future flooding.
- January and February 2025 North and Far North Queensland floods
- Western Queensland Surface Trough and Associated Rainfall and flooding, 29 January – 28 February, 21 March – 19 May 2025
- Queensland Monsoon Trough, Cyclone Koji, Cyclone Narelle and severe weather commencing 24 December 2025

Eligibility requirements

To be eligible for the grant, you will need to demonstrate certain information about your home:
- The building footprint of your home was inundated by floods.
- Your home is a residence. This means your home is a house, unit, granny flat, or manufactured home that is not used primarily for business purposes
- You're the homeowner or property owner. You will need to provide a rates notice or register of title
