Requirements for previous upgrades

The Home Renovation Rebate Program details can change slightly over time (no more than twice per year) based on factors like changing industry standards, customer participation, and more. The current requirements are listed on our website.

The details of the program may change while you’re completing your home renovation project. When this happens, we use your project invoice date and the program requirements that were in effect on the invoice date to determine which requirements apply.
